IC Government Island Summit 2022
#31

The Snovian delegation came with their usual duo for such events: President Kenipp and Prime Minister Lugorr. They are mostly quiet on international matters and are only making sure to keep Gianatla on a distance - but still close enough nearby. It's not easy to be a theoretically bigger, yet still slightly more insignificant country, who still holds power over a colony - sorry: autonomous region. The revolutions, fighting and intrigues do not interest them largely. There is not much for Snolland to win or lose out of them, if all those things don't happen nearby. Only the situation in Ryccia has affected Snolland a little, as they had to terminate the contract over military bases with Ryccia and as a thank you were fallen victims of some fire-bombing.

Either way, it was time to speak and the Prime Minister took the lead there:

"Ladies and Gentlemen,

let's all be honoured to be here on these - politically speaking - holy grounds of the world, which has truly become a pinnacle of Pacifican cooperation, as other speakers have already pointed out before me. Thank you, Doctor Yan, for the invitation.
Just like the Izaakian president, I'm also not a fan of platitudes and want to get straight to the point. We are looking with worry on the instability of the region and how it spreads like wildfire. 
I don't believe, there will be a war. The Concordia Entente's goal is to prevent wars and I don't think, Izaakia, Ryccia, Huawan or anyone else here on this summit has the interest to start GW2, but there will be further hardships in international and domestic security we need to address. How do we deal with nations, who supposedly have two legitimate governments? When and how do we intervene in other countries' domestic policies to 'chart a right path' for them? What are security concerns of the major players on the international stage, how can we mend them, but at the same time don't trample over the smaller members of our community with that? How can we rebuild trust in our institutions at home and between our governments abroad?
Those questions should be addressed and Snolland is ready to mediate whenever it is asked to."



The Gianlucian delegation let itself time with coming to the summit. They have taken notice of the Peony's invitation, but current tensions between the Peocracy and Federal Republic have only made the Gianlucian government answer on it through the Gianlucian embassy in Huawan some 24 hours before the summit.
The delegation of Gianatla consisted of President Schmidt, Chancellor Sanddorn, Foreign Minister Strunk, Defence Minister Recke and the WF ambassador Meise and all of them ushered into the assembly hall punctually, as one can expect from a Gianlucian, but still late in comparison to many of their colleagues.

After a couple of opening speeches have been made and everyone was intensively listening to them, Marja Sanddorn was making her way to the lectern to pose her opening statement.

"Esteemed colleagues,

Gianatla is here, GI-Land is gone. This is what happened in the last few weeks in our part of the region and it has taken, as it seems, some governments by surprise. Especially that with the democratic reforms - we have passed through a Valkyrian-style referendum - we have also changed a little on our attitude to stand the ground, when we want to reach something. Gianatla has and is being smiled at, it is respected, we do have success with our WF resolution drafts, but look at Pacifica and look at all those faces of the leaders of countries, who think better of themselves. What is all what I've just enumerated good for, if we don't make progress around the globe?

No, instead Gianatla is now being punished for wanting to establish international law, well, internationally. For wanting to ensure peace by helping to create the Concordia Entente, which is - I stress it again - a defensive cooperative, which also majorly will include trade and research agreements between all member nations. For wanting to ensure, that unnecessary deaths are prevented by finally prohibiting and destroying our nuclear arsenals and by reminding each and everyone of you, that we have agreed on several climate accords already.

Now you will say, that this is just normal in international politics. There are shark and there are fish and if Gianatla is a fish, it has to accept its role. But I say to you, that no, we will not lose our idealism. We want to make this world a genuinely better place for every woman, man, person in between, child, even animal. For that, we don't want to profile ourselves by creating a Government Island summit or similar things, instead we are accepting the punishments we receive right now and that it will take time for other countries, both friend and foe, to catch on to our ideas. But the time is running and the situation around the world is not getting better by the minute. The opposite currently happens and yes, ladies and gentlemen, according to our sources, it is not unrealistic, that a GW2 is on the horizon. I urge you all, that we have. to. prevent that.

How can this be prevented? This can be prevented by nations and especially world leaders not putting themselves on a pedestal. Whether your country is called Austra, Gianatla, FiHami, Izaakia or Sedunn - we all have the right to be treated equally, but we also have the duty to stick to some game rules. International law, binding international treaties. We also have the means of the WF to use and not to ridicule. We have the diplomats to get together and find solutions to keep this planet safe and stable for everyone. And those are not platitudes not worth fighting for, no, stability, peace and a livable planet are the only things worth fighting for. Each nation has to find its own way to reach all that within our broader international rules, but they have to be willing to reach it. 

It is all in your hands. Today, everyday.

Thank you."
