The Arctic Pact:
This alliance is for the mutual defense of the member states

The alliance views any crossing of national borders of one of the members by a foreign force not authorized to do so as an act of aggression to be responded to by all the members.

The alliance will not require nations to aid signatories if a members begins a war of aggression. Fellow members can help or not as they see fit, but are not required to.

Members must all agree to add new members by a unanimous vote.

Member States: Cascadia, Quebec, Russia, Absaroka

Signed: High Priestess Rachel of the Cascadian Combine
Signed: First Consul Jacque DeNantes of The State of Quebec.
Signed: Members of the Russian Board of Directors, on behalf of the shareholders

From Korea
To Bingzhou

You will remove yourself from Hubei immediately and FEDCO will allow you to remain at the previous borders for a white peace. If you continue this conflict we will place the full military might of FEDCO against you.

 

We await word from Jiangnan. You will be apprised of our decision in due course.

 

Except for Nuke, i feel i have caught up on NPC diplo and questions- if i missed you please remind me.

 

Minister of Intelligence Han Sang Ah slammed the report down on his desk. Hard. He glared across it to the pair of senior Military Intelligence officers standing at attention in front of the desk. “Explain to me how we missed this!” Minister Han swept the papers off his desk onto the floor and then angrily jumped up from his chair. The officers glanced at one another quickly while Minister Han was not looking; they both showed a quiver of uncertainty as neither had ever seen Minister Han this angry. “Explain how not only did Jiangnan officers unilaterally activate their contingency orders against Hubei they also apparently quietly activated military aid from Bingzhou?” Minister Han waited a moment staring at the two officers. “Well, I’m waiting.”

Sojang Yu Seong Yoon took a step forward and tried to subtly shield his subordinate, Taejang Cooper Iseul Hye, and began to speak. “Well sir in all honesty the analysts after having seen the official orders from the Government of Jiangnan to its officers that clearly labeled the actions they took as a ‘contingency response to aggression from Hubei,’ which did not include any mention of an alliance with Bingzhou.” Sojang Yu began to dry rub his hands and quickly controlled the impulse before continuing. “Bingzhou’s actions were seen as opportunistic not as part of a coordinated strategy. But with this revelation it appears a very high ranking military officer in Jiangnan must have authorized this and activated their contingency plan involving Bingzhou which were unknown to lower level officers.”

Taejang Cooper couldn’t hold her mouth shut any longer under the fierce glare of Minister Han and began to speak. “Sir, with this information we would never have let Bingzhou off as easy as we have offered them with a white peace. But it’s too late to change the offer now. This means we cannot waiver on the terms for Jiangnan at this point as this makes it much more difficult to defend from their point of view. The one who did this wasn’t some jittery line officer as we suspected, this had to have been coordinated by someone high in the Jiangnan Military.” Taejang Cooper took a deep breath and then waited for the response while ignoring the glare from her commanding officer. She had spoken without being asked, directly ignoring an order from Sojang Yu, which as she recalled was literally: “Keep you damn mouth shut during this meeting.”

Minister Han took a moment and glanced around his office. Like most in the Korean government they avoided clutter and unnecessary decoration. The office was simplistic and yet well laid out. Minister Han had deliberately hired a Feng Shui to get this office just right. He counted to twenty in his head before responding. “Fine our resources failed us in uncovering this rather important piece of the puzzle. Whatever, it’s out of our hands now and entirely in Jiangnan’s court.” He bent and waved off the officer as he collected up the papers from the floor. He never actually apologized, but it was understood by the officers by this simple action. “I have to go explain this failure to the Prime Minister.” He stood back up, straightened his perfectly ironed shirt, put on his suit coat, and then turned to the officers and issued one last comment. “Go and do better, Korea’s future depends on it.” The officers saluted and left the room.
