Yes. The only change I'd make is a definitive deadline, such as "the end of next turn", whenever that may be.
If we DONT want a NAP (because we plan to attack them) then we should just tell them that our NAP offer has expired, and we are open to discussing a new one whenever they have time. That way we can attack at our leisure, but we are still at least giving them hope of peace.
Hey UniversCiv,
It's been a little while since we've heard from you. There a few in our team that believe that you don't actually want a NAP. Some are also convinced that you are about to attack us. If you could make a decision about the proposed NAP soon, we would be more comfortable in doing diplomacy with you.

"We want to remind you we have a diplomatic agreement to finalize"
I propose again we send this short and neutral message:
I am afraid of that too. But still secretly hope I am wrong. As this will be a whole new game. Fighting 2 nations on two fronts is... hmmm...
Is there anything that is preventing you from finalizing our NAP? We are looking forward to mutually beneficial cooperation. [Here, I improvise: we can throw in a missionary or two? fastworker? other ideas? to show our good will and benefits of cooperation?]
Bonjour, Team Uciv,
As you must know already, we are being attacked by the Spaniards. Their attack is not very well coordinated and our ultimate advantage in resources and technology will give us easy time defending, but we would be very much glad to finalize our NAP with you. Is there anything that is preventing you from signing our NAP? If you think a reasonable gift to show our respect to you can make you look more favorably and finalize our NAP quicker (like couple of Fast Workers, a missionary or two so you can benefit from having a state religion, settler to settle city of yours or anything else which can your heart desires), we will be glad to discuss the matter as we are looking forward to mutually beneficial cooperation.
