The United Provinces have officially signed the TPNW, and hope this to be “a little push for any nations that are still thinking about signing it or not”. As such, the UPRAN swear to never develop, test, produce, manufacture, acquire, possess, stockpile, transfer or receive nuclear weapons as long as they are part of the treaty.

Sources indicate that the ruling grand coalition is fiercely debating the topic of holding a vote on signing on to the TPNW. While it’s thought any such vote would fail, the Labour Prime Minister, Anastasia Milsinby, may be under pressure to appease sections of the political left by allowing a vote on the matter, including factions of her own party. Meanwhile, it’s believed the more pro-nuclear political right is threatening to call a vote of no confidence on the government if such a concession is granted.

Domestic: Deadlock in The National Parliament regarding approach to monetary reform. MP's are divided between the government Offices approach to devaluing the currency (which risks breaking anti-dumping measures of other countries) and a planned counter-proposal from the opposition Committees which includes pegging the Nasphiliti Pacifican Pound Sterling to the Pacifican Dollar, an act which is apparently unfeasable on grounds of legitimacy, due to lack of Nasphiliti membership in the WF.

Speaking of which,

Foreign:

The famed internationalisation efforts from the Judiciary claim that the nearly complete process is halted by “formal ambivalence” of Resolution 7 and incompatibility and possible conflict of laws from Resolution 8.

In response, the HM Cabinet for Foreign Affairs had re-assured the general domestic public that these matters aren’t a substantive issue, explanation for which is linked.

:exclamation: Regarding ongoing events on WMD and WAW, though not explicitly pointing to them, the Head of the HM Cabinet (supported by the Grand Duke and Head of State) had issued a series of legally binding statements on the matters.
In short: the statements enforce all international law and customs domestically for entities related to Nasphilitae; offer cooperation to international bodies which express the will to observe the proper procedural conduct of such prosecutions if they arise; a priori condemn and sanction physical, private, and state entities which have been determined by the international community as breaking international law; and has temporarily lifted jus soli immigration privileges, as well as raised its border security.

Dramatic scenes have unfolded in Ryccia’s Parliament today, as many MPs of the Socialist and Green parties, joined by a few Labour and Unø Lænd MPs, 87 out of 1000 MPs in total, attempted to paralyze the legislative session by shouting “vote now” repeatedly, believed to be referring to the TPNW, during a speech by the leader of the Conservative Party, notably also the Minister of Foreign Affairs under the ruling grand coalition. The Speaker was forced to suspend the day’s activities due to the disruption, but later promised to “look into ways to punish the MPs responsible for today’s unfortunate events”.

Internationalisation, or the codification of international law & customs into domestic court practice, has been complete. This likely preceded application for an observer status to the World Forum, for reasons given on NAACN by Robert Stenhouse. Namely; “the application of international law was paramount; Otherwise (it wouldn’t be enforced)”…Because one could call for lex soli rights and abuse conflict of jurisdiction. Shocking.

Sera Clayton of the IaN institute had to conduct a study to find the leading cause of death and low life expectancy (68) In case it already wasn’t evident by two abnormally popular environmentalist parties, it’s pollution… I hope the study wasn’t paid for.

The Plenary Committee is pushing for a “Simulacra Package” bill as to solve the ongoing liquidity crisis. You can access it here if for some reason you wish to. Now, the older (among other comparatives) of the two Cohens (Clara) noticed a familiar pattern which the bill follows on the NAACN, good job Clara.


However, neither the draft nor the Cohens gave too much attention in aspects important to actors outside the country, which are:

:grey_exclamation: Agorports stock exchange will re-open on the 20th, meaning: Foreign entities may portfolio invest (up to 20% of total value offered), with SGN’s assurance that if dividends are not returned-on-investment by the 20th August, the Country itself will pay for the floating charge. Foreign entities may lease equipment from whichever foreclosed company invoices whatever inventory stockpile. Finally, full trade liberalisation, namely FDI’s, are expected to be re-introduced when the (self-termed btw) “Confident Volatility Policy” ends (August 20.) :exclamation:

President Rombold addressed the crowds in Parliament Square today after clashes broke out between some of the hundreds of thousands of Pro, and Anti-denuclearisation protestors. In his speech from a balcony of the parliamentary building he set out the rational and emotional cases for denuclearisation, and promised that Izaakia will not be left defenceless and vulnerable to nuclear attack. After the speech the crowds started to die down, however some protestors still remain. Political journalists are calling it the speech a masterpiece of oratory not seen since the Great War, and that the speech might save his premiership.

All Border Crossings Along DMZ Set to Open March 10


In a groundbreaking development aimed at fostering peace and cooperation, the Münnen Protocols have paved the way for the simultaneous opening of all 17 border checkpoints along the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) between Mitallduk and Krauanagaz. This historic decision, set to take effect on March 10, marks a significant departure from the decades-old practice of a single crossing point established after the 1976 ceasefire. The Münnen Protocols, negotiated with the intent of easing tensions and normalizing relations between the two nations, has been a subject of anticipation and speculation. The decision to open all border checkpoints is seen as a tangible step towards enhancing regional stability and facilitating greater people-to-people interactions.
