Non-Aggression Pact Between TSP and Lazarus Wrote:Non-Aggression Pact Between The South Pacific and Lazarus
The regions of The South Pacific and Lazarus,
Recognising that both have had positive relations in the past and even had a treaty of non-aggression, military support and mutual recognition,
Acknowledging that communication between both regions has been in recent times inadequate, and that this has lead to tense and regretful situations,
Believing however that neither region should be an enemy of the other, and that friendship and cooperation between Game Created Regions is beneficial to all involved parties,
Hereby agree to:
Refrain from engaging in any decisive and purposeful action that will undermine the regional security of either party
Respect as legitimate the current system of government of both parties or their duly selected and constitutional successors
Refrain from conspiring themselves or through third parties to destabilise or overthrow the legitimate government of either party
Report in good faith any known threat or security concern on their counterpart's legitimate government to the latter's security officials
Hold discussions from time to time with each other on the state of their relations and address issues or improvements regarding the implementation of this pact
Upon the passage of this pact the Treaty Between The South Pacific and Lazarus shall be considered repealed
Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation Between TSP and Lazarus Wrote:Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation between The South Pacific and Lazarus
Preamble
The parties to this treaty express their faith in the benefits of friendship and cooperation between their two regions. We believe that working together on matters tangible and intangible will add even more vitality to the lives of our regions. In the spirit of our shared history as Game-Created Regions, we affirm these beliefs by adopting the following principles.
Article I. Mutual Recognition of Government Legitimacy.
Section 1. The parties to this treaty recognize the government of each region, based upon its constitutions and laws, as legitimate, and will not extend that recognition to any government that comes to power through means not proscribed by law, which shall be determined by the legitimate government in question.
Section 2. Should the government of either party fundamentally change, but not violate the terms of the previous section, the parties may adopt a memorandum of understanding extending the provisions of this treaty to the new government.
Article II. Affirmation of Non-Aggression.
Section 1. The parties to this treaty reaffirm their pact of non-aggression.
Section 2. Both parties will refrain from engaging in any decisive and purposeful action that will undermine the regional security of either party.
Section 3. Both parties will refrain from conspiring, either directly or through a third party, to destabilize or overthrow the legitimate government of either party.
Section 4. Both parties will, in good faith, report any known threat or concern related to the other party's security, to the appropriate security organs.
Article III. Cooperation on Military Affairs.
Section 1. The parties to this treaty agree to work with each other, from time to time and as circumstances permit, on mutually beneficial military operations, including training missions and confidence-building measures.
Section 2. Both parties agree that diplomatic and political concerns may prevent military cooperation, and will not consider the rejection of cooperation as hostile posturing.
Section 3. Both parties agree to keep classified any information regarding military affairs, and only publish that information in a manner mutually agreed upon.
Section 4. Both parties agree to share intelligence as circumstances permit.
Article IV. Mutual Defense.
Section 1. The parties to this treaty may seek assistance for their self-defense by lodging an official request with the appropriate officials.
Section 2. Both parties acknowledge that this treaty does not establish, nor prohibit, a collective security arrangement, but rather mutual defense will be conducted on an as-requested and as-approved basis.
Section 3. Both parties agree to assist each other in responding to an internal coup d'etat, unless relieved of duty by mutual agreement.
Section 4. Both parties agree that the provisions of mutual defense do not extend to defense against attacks provoked by hostile activity on part of the requesting party.
Article V. Exchange of Cultural Values.
The parties to this treaty believe that cultural ties help solidify political ties, and as such agree to hold cultural exchanges from time to time, to strengthen the institutions of peace and liberty.
Article VI. Exchange of Embassies.
Section 1. The parties to this treaty agree to establish permanent embassies on their respective community forums, which shall be open until such a time that either party requests their embassy to be closed.
Section 2. Both parties agree that embassies may accommodate private discussions, but shall not be the sole means of official communication.
Section 3. The ministers of foreign affairs for both parties will strive to regularly communicate about the implementation of this treaty.
Article VII. Peaceful Settlement of Disputes.
The parties to this treaty undertake to settle any and all disputes between them through peaceful means, in such a way that friendship and cooperation between them are not harmed, and to refrain from using the threat of force or sanction while this treaty is in force.
Article VIII. Deposit and Clarification of Terms.
Section 1. This treaty shall be deposited in a publicly accessible area of the community forums of both parties.
Section 2. The parties to this treaty may, from time to time, clarify the terms of this treaty through memorandums of understanding, which shall be posted alongside the treaty.
Article IX. Suspension of Terms and Termination of the Treaty.
Section 1. Either party may suspend the terms of the treaty, if the other party has materially breached its terms, until such a time that both parties peacefully settle the dispute and adopt a memorandum of understanding that the treaty is again in force.
Section 2. Either party may terminate the treaty with five days notice, posted publicly in the forum of deposit in both regions, after which the terms of treaty are no longer binding on either party.
