Standard Resolution on situation in Ryccia
#1

Dear colleagues and ambassadors,

the resolution I am proposing today is here for the WF to act swiftly and efficiently. The proposed sanctions will isolate the Ryccian junta and weaken its military, hopefully achieving a peaceful transition to a civil government.
The World Forum must now act. We have had debates and discussions, now we need acts. We need to use the means we have.

We hope that the resolution will be passed in its finest form, but passed.

We must take responsibility and act according to our principles.

Thank you!

Dr. Lina Frere,
Ambassador of Eflad to the WF

Assembly of the World Forum
Distr.: General
07 June 2022


Resolution 11 adopted by the Assembly on DD Month YYYY
Resolution of World Forums reaction to the situation in Ryccia

Section A — Standard Measures Adopted
  1. A condemnation according to WFR 1d, Section F, subsection 2, letter g);
  2. and severe economic sanctions according to WFR 1d, Section F, subsection 2, letter j).


Section B — Explanation of Necessity and Proportionality
  1. The condemnation will help the international community especially the World Forum to reach the goal of the isolation of the Ryccian junta. Through the condemnation, nations all around the world are alarmed to cut any ties to the junta which is violating international law and human rights. This condemnation will not hinder any nations in their actions, but it sends a signal to the international community with what they are dealing with.
  2. The severe economic sanctions towards the Ryccian junta will ensure that the Military junta isn’t provided with material capable of producing weapons. The sanctions will isolate the Ryccian junta and its economy further weakening the military force. This measure is necessary, as it provides a strong leverage against the junta and only affects the Ryccian juntas side. The weakening of the military through economic sanctions will help ensure a peaceful transition to a civil government of, by and for the people.


Section C — Implementation
  1. The World Forum hereby condemns the Ryccian junta for its gruesome and barbaric violations of international law, human rights, and human dignity against the people in Ryccia, as well as the attack of Snollands capital. The condemnation is validated and upheld by every member of the World Forum.
  2. The members of the World Forum are to implement severe economic sanctions including, but not limited to, an embargo on all military equipment (including but not limited to weapons, munition, and radio), as well as equipment which can be used militarily; embargo on steel and steel products; embargo on electric chips and semiconductors.

Honorable Ambassador,

in principle the administration of Gianatla and this delegation is in favour of your proposal, however there are some criticisms to be made.
First of all, the steps you want to take are not possible to take in this way. You skipped the measures of WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 2 Let. a-f without explaining in your Sec. B why such a skip is justified. Such a skip is justified in an emergency situation, an existence of which would need to be laid out (see WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 1).
Then you didn't stick to the order of the to be taken measures. A standard measure j can only be taken, if before that or together with it the measures g, h and i are also taken. So we'd ask the delegation to reconsider and either propose a standard resolution, that asks the Assembly to make use of the measures g and h or of the measures g, h, i and j.

Secondly in your explanation you did not fully make clear, how the principle of proportionality as laid out in WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 4 is considered. This doesn't mean, we don't see your reasoning and it neither means, we don't think you're right, however this resolution makes itself contestable, if we don't make sure, our principles set in the Charter and WFR 1d are not upheld.

To end on a positive note again: The implementation guidelines look written well enough and clearly to us. Also we are seeing it positively, that the Efladian delegation wants to focus the measures on the junta and not against the Mirrey or Siculite administrations.

We ask other members to also raise their concerns, if they have them, and propose amendments to the resolution, also taking the points we've made into account. The sooner we can pass a legally correct standard resolution, the earlier we can show the world we can act swifter than before. Otherwise future standard resolutions, and in extension the WF, will have an even higher burden of "proving" themselves to be effective.

In order to accelerate the process of to find a strong reaction of the WF to the military junta currently controlling mainland Ryccia, we propose following amendments to the Efladian resolution proposal. As for the change in Sec. C Subsec. 1, please be reminded that a standard resolution is generally only adopted by the nations approving of it. A standard resolution therefore cannot ask for a measure to be implemented by all member states regardless of their voting behaviour.

Assembly of the World Forum
Distr.: General
26 June 2022


Resolution 15 adopted by the Assembly on DD Month YYYY
World Forum Reaction to the Situation on Mainland Ryccia
Section A — Standard Measure(s) Adopted
  1. A condemnation according to WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 2 Ltr. g
  2. The calling of the International Court according to WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 2 Ltr. h
  3. Implementation of severe economic sanctions according to WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 2 Ltr. j

Section B — Explanation of Necessity and Proportionality
  1. Due to the nature of the junta and them not representing the legitimate government of the Ryccian Federation and furthermore due to the brutal actions taken not only against their own citizens, but also against those of member states of the World Forum and members of families of one of our delegations, and additionally due to their extremist views and actions in the Valoran Civil War, the Assembly hereby assesses, that the situation in mainland Ryccia is an emergency situation, in which sanctions according to WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 2 Ltr. a-f cannot be considered effective. Therefore they are skipped in accordance with WFR 1d Sec. F Subsec. 1 S. 3.
  2. The condemnation will help the international community especially the World Forum to reach the goal of the isolation of the Ryccian junta. Through the condemnation, nations all around the world are alarmed to cut any ties to the junta which is violating international law and human rights. This condemnation will not hinder any nations in their actions, but it sends a signal to the international community with what they are dealing with.
  3. The calling of the International Court shall help in opening a case against any war criminal from the Ryccian junta. The WFIC is also able to suggest or impose necessary sanctions, this Assembly cannot pass. As the junta has not shown respect to general international law, it is questionable, whether the calling of the WFIC will have much of an effect during the conflict and will not just play a huge role after the end of it. Therefore the Assembly shall pass additional standard measures.
  4. The Assembly skips the standard measure of suspension due to the Ryccian junta not being represented in the World Forum. Suspending the Mirrey administration, to which the Ryccian delegation has plead allegiance to, would be wrong sign to the world and also to the junta, that would feel legitimated to represent Ryccia on the international stage officially.
  5. The severe economic sanctions towards the Ryccian junta will ensure that the Military junta isn’t provided with material capable of producing weapons. The sanctions will isolate the Ryccian junta and its economy further weakening the military force. This measure is necessary, as it provides a strong leverage against the junta and only affects the Ryccian junta's side. The weakening of the military through economic sanctions will help ensure a peaceful transition to a civil government of, by and for the people.

Section C — Implementation
  1. The World Forum hereby condemns the Ryccian junta for its gruesome and barbaric violations of international law, human rights, and human dignity against the people in Ryccia and Valora, as well as the attack of Snolland's capital. The condemnation is validated and upheld by every member of the World Forum.
  2. The World Forum Assembly hereby forwards the preparation to file a case at the WFIC against the war criminals and leaders of the Ryccian junta to the INL. The current Officer and his/her successor together with the judges at the Court shall bring justice to every innocent person tortured and murdered by the Ryccian junta.
  3. The members of the World Forum are to implement severe economic sanctions including, but not limited to, an embargo on all military equipment (including but not limited to weapons, munition, and radio), as well as equipment which can be used militarily; embargo on steel and steel products; embargo on electric chips and semiconductors.

Does the junta not also have control of the Siculite Islands?

We thank the Gianatlan delegation for its support and helping us in refurbishing our proposal and ensuring it sticks to the rules.

We second Gianatlans porposal as well and hope this will end the atrocities of the Ryccian junta.

The Kingdom of Stoinia seconds the Gianatlan proposal. We urge all other member states to do the same so that we bring an end to an unlawful oppressive regime that terrorizes Cordillia. We also motion this institution to vote on the proposal.

Tudor Segărceanu
Ambassador to the World Forum of the Kingdom of Stoinia

We wholeheartedly agree with the Stoinian statement and seconds the Gianatlan proposal.

Jengo Van Schalwyk
Ambassador to the World Forum of the Republic of Sallodesia

As the Ryccian people continue to be oppressed by a dictatorial government, the Republic of Myria agrees with the Stoinian statement and seconds the Gianatlan porposal.

Esteemed delegates

While the Peocracy of Huawan seconds the motion of the condemnation of the Ryccian Junta government as well as the stabilization of the region. We feel inclined to disagree with the provision of responsibilities to the Mirrey government, as it stands the Mirrey government does not have a legitimate claim to the sovereignty of Ryccia, instead fighting guerrilla warfare in the four Ryccian territories currently recognized, with its government in contested areas and territories.

It should not be in the WF's interests for the instalment of nations and the forgoing of the political process, the allegiance of the WF to the Mirrey government and the direct proclamation that the Mirrey government is "the one true government" sets a precedent that the WF would be able to choose any government entity the majority voted for as legitimate, and completely disregarding the democratic process of the people of Ryccia. Which in turn, violates the principle of the World Forum itself.

Members of the court,

While we assure the current delegate of Ryccia to the WF as its legitimate voice, we ask that the court considers a fair and democratic process to be done in Ryccia after the stabilization from the junta observed by select members of the WF. We must not trample on the democratic right of the citizens of Ryccia to freely choose their government and ruling power.
