UN General Assembly Resolution: Concerning Yugoslavia

[Aesir Tempest]

General Assembly First Committee
Sponsers: Tezcat, Montenegro and North Macedonia
Signatories: Hungary, Greece, Romania, Bulgaria, Ottoman Empire, and Falklandia
Topic: "Condemning the violation of Montenegrin Sovereignty and recommending military action"

Reminding all nations of the "2nd Balkan Wars" and of the rhetoric of Yugoslavia towards its neighbors,

Noting purpose of the UN to ensure stability in the world,

Stressing the fact that the United Nations claims to stand for small nations,

1. Encourages all member states to condemn the illegal invasion of Montenegro;

2. Calls for a complete arms embargo of the Yugoslavian nation;

3. Calls for a UN Task Force to be deployed in defense of Montenegro;

4. Requests further debate on the status of the Yugoslav government;

5. Requests the Security Council condemns the aggression and drafts a resolution demanding action;

The Yugoslav Letter to the UN:

"The Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia will not take these broad claims of peacekeeping. First, we will like to remind all nations that our action in the Balkans is for our preservation. In its name, Militärbezirk Nordadria is a military zone that is occupied and subjugated by the Bayerisch-Preußische Militärjunta and has been allowed to occupy these lands.

We would also like to remind the UN of the status of Montenegro and North Macedonia's global recognition and Montenegro's illegal withdrawal from Yugoslavia. We are at war as Yugoslavia and Montenegro have long and actively fought with each other. This time they shot down unarmed Yugoslav aircraft.

An embargo is also ultimately a ludicrous idea. You speak for peace; however, you allow a foreign nation to give the idea to harm the right for Yugoslavia to bear its arms. No treaty states Yugoslavia cannot do such, and much research has been into this.

We would also bring up the subject of Montengrin's withdraw and the limited usefulness of UN 'peacekeepers', and how they maintained a policy of observing. Due to the interference of a rebellion power, they allowed our people to be hurt and insurgents to incite violence—furthermore, the UN supported these individuals who caused so much harm.

Yugoslavia is not willing to allow a 'debate' on the status of the Yugoslav government in Montenegro and our war. No evidence states a crime here currently. Our declaration and Montenegro's actions proved the justification enough, and the acting president even warned Montenegro and gave them a free choice to decide."

Bavarian-Prussian letter to UN & SFR Yugoslavia;

"The Bavarian-Prussian Military administration understands and respects the place democracy has in the world. The invasion of Montenegro is a threat to the wellbeing of all peoples inside of the Balkans.

As a matter of national security to all European nations, Bavaria will be issuing, and enforcing, an embargo upon the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. As of this message meeting the UN legislature, the Strait of Adria will be closed to all nations. Any trespassers will be warned and sunk.

Additionally, any nations attempting to arm or supply the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia will be warned with threat of arms. The Yugoslavian Administration has no plans to treat it's neighboring countries with any due respect, and openly advocates for the destruction of Bavaria. There is no excuse to be supplying a menace such as themselves.

Additionally, Bavaria-Prussia would like to remind the circumstances in which the Militärbezirk Nordadria exists. While it was an act of aggression that birthed the state, Bavaria has done nothing but provided for the citizens within the Militärbezirk. The Wehrmacht and Abwehr deployed to Nordadria are monitored day and night and held to the highest standards, as put in place by our own München Conventions. The existence of Nordadria has evolved from spoils of war into matter of protecting Euro sovereignty as well as protecting the people of the Balkans.

To the Socialist Federal Government of Yugoslavia; if forces are not moved out of Montenegro and Macedonia within forty-eight hours of this letter reaching the UN legislature, Bavaria will have no choice but to intervene directly in the conflict.

Gott Mit Uns."

[KyferLegs]

Yugoslavian UN diplomats took only a few hours to respond. Two were being flown to the UN council with a beforehand message. Their message was detailed and quite, well, odd for Yugoslavia.

"Yugoslavia currently will not be subject to the whims of an embargo. We have done nothing wrong but keep peace and freedom how we see in our borders. Montenegro and Yugoslavia have long engaged with each other. However, recently Yugoslav intelligence has stumbled upon troubling news. These diplomats carry evidence of such news and we ask the UN to treat them with respect. Yugoslav intelligence has confirmed acts of crimes against humanity that were committed in Northern Montenegro under the Government of Montenegro against Bosnian peoples. We would like to remind the UN that currently Yugoslavia has avoided war crimes or un-humane acts of war. Which we have given evidence of also, including the court date of tried and arrested military officials."

"Yugoslavia will also attempt to open negotiations with Macedonia. Currently, Yugoslavia sees Macedonian entrance into the war as an act of aggression. We will defend ourselves in arms for the protection of sovereignty. Current grounds of a ceasefire are wanted, due to the justification Macedonia gave. No Yugoslav plans or military have justification nor goals to invade their nation. We would like to end conflict with their nation as Yugoslavia does not seek to fight with Macedonia. However, to protect the rights and the freedoms of the Bosnians we are not willing as of now to let up arms unless Bosnian lands are transferred to our control and either Montenegro is given as an autonomous zone and its leadership is tried under international law."

[drakazure]

Bavarian-Prussian Reply to the UN & Yugoslavia:

"Bavaria-Prussia believes strongly within the essence of democracy; hence why, after negotiations with the current President of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia by Nordadrianischer Großmarschall Friederick Horst, we believe that it is in the best interest for the sake of the Balkans for the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to be allowed to sign peace with Macedonia. Following said negotiations, the Nordadrian Abwehr has looked into the alleged war crimes of Montenegro.

After a through investigation of the alleged war crimes, the Nordadrian Abwehr has found these claims to be founded and in reality, and even true in an overwhelming majority of cases. The military administration believes it to be best that the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia should be allowed to exist further underneath Bavarian-Prussian supervision and guidance, while the Yugoslavian-Montenegrin should be allowed to play out without intervention from outside sources.

The Bavarian-Prussian government, naturally, believes that the Yugoslavian government needs to be put in check, due to their past of war crimes and their previous hatred of the existence of our state. However, the Bavarian-Prussian government also believes that the Yugoslavian claims on Montenegro are justified due to the secession of the Montenegrin government.

In short, the Bavarian-Prussian government believes strongly in allowing the state of Yugoslavia to wage war with Montenegro due to both their secession and crimes against humanity. Additionally, starting as soon as this letter reaches the UN legislator, Bavaria-Prussia will be observing and supervising the government and military of Yugoslavia, and requiring them to become signatories of Die Nürnberger Konventionen.

Gott Mit Uns."

Montenegrin Diplomats to the General Assembly
Blagoš Kovinić
Tadiša Pejanović

The two men would enter the Assembly, accompanied by four guards who would maintain themselves between the Montenegrin Diplomats and the Yugoslavian Diplomats to prevent any foul play in the Assembly Room.

Kovinić would begin almost immediately. "The claims of the Yugoslavian government are false and outrageous! They do not hold anyone but their own interests at heart. They wish to expand without resistance to the point they dare to spread lies in front of the world! This war is solely by their own hand and by their own greed. The Republic of Montenegro is just the victim of a power-hungry and undemocratic state."

Pejanović would place a briefcase on the table, producing a computer, a disc player, and a tape player, along with several tapes, CDs, and flashdrives, seemingly having four copies of everything on different mediums. "We will start with their first false claim. We did not willingly shoot down a cargo aircraft because we wanted to. They flew three aircraft into our airspace the morning after giving our president the ultimatum that we submit or go to war." The man would walk up to the front, a guard trailing as well to stay between him and the Yugoslavians. He'd place down the computer, hooking it up to the speaker system of the assembly room. He'd allow the recording of the Montenegrin President and the Yugoslavian Leader play first for the Assembly to hear. "This is the full, unedited, correspondences between our air traffic control, fighters, and military bases with the three Yugoslavian aircraft." He'd change out the files and press play. "The first thing you will notice is that they never acknowledge ATC. With them flying over our nation outside of usual traffic routes, they raised suspicion of our military." The sound of ATC asking for the scrambling of fighters became apparent on the tapes. The tapes would continue over the remainder of the time before the planes would reach their targets. "Our military continued to allow these aircraft to continue their flight plans until one was found to be aimed at our capital. No nation sitting in this room allows just any plane to fly unhindered through their airspace when it is being uncooperative. We allowed it to cross almost our entire country. We weren't aware of the payloads on these aircrafts. Yugoslavia in the past is known for its harsh treatment of its people and even harsher treatment of its enemies. It's the reason we broke away and became our own state. They could have had chemical weapons that killed our civilians. Then where would we be? Groveling at the feet of these monsters while our own die! Just so they can get more land. The other two aircraft were able to fly back, one only doing so after having a military base aim at it because it was about to enter restricted airspace. Yugoslavia was trying to provoke a war." He'd allow the final of the communications to play through before it reached when the nation's military scrambling over the sudden movements on their borders and attacks on their checkpoints. He'd then return to his seat, bringing the equipment with him.

Kovinić would speak again. "And now we get word that they're accusing us of warcrimes. Answer me this, sir," he'd look over at the Yugoslavians, "what military officials have you arrested? Soldiers who haven't been killed are currently in guerilla warfare to keep your own troops at bay, and none of our officials are on the front lines. There are no warcrimes here besides the ones you are faking to put on us! We have no qualms with the Bosnians! Sure they'd like to have their own state some day, as do many of the people of the Balkans, but that will only come when you aren't enslaving the other half of their country! We will not subject them to your tyrannic rule, nor will any good Montenegrin give up their homeland to those who seek to destroy it. You willingly create and falsify the harshest treatment of our Balkan brothers just so you can make the Germans to your North not want to fight you while we give our lives to keep ourselves free. You are the scum of the Earth, and you bring a mockery to the Balkan name."

[Aesir Tempest]

Tezcat Ambassador to the United Nations
Tizoc Nocelotl

Tizoc would take the floor after the Montenegrins finished. He was clearly mad at the recordings he had just listened to and had no intent of hiding the fact. His tail lashed angrily as he spoke. "Honorable Representatives of the General Assembly, I hope you agree with me when I say that that presentation was extremely upsetting to listen to. The Montenegrin Diplomats have conclusively proven that not only has Yugoslavia lied to us, but they thought we were stupid enough to accept this. They claimed and I quote 'the acting president even warned Montenegro and gave them a free choice to decide' what we just heard was not a 'free choice' it was a threat. They gave Montenegro the option between surrendering themselves to a murderous regime or war."

He would take a deep breath before continuing. "And the fact that the Bavarian-Prussians fell for this obvious lie shows that they did not do the bare minimum research." He would look at the Bavarian-Prussian Representative. "You should be ashamed that your government fell for such blatant lies. While I don't agree with name calling on this floor, I do agree that the actions taken by the Yugoslavs are deplorable and deserve the harshest condemnation possible."

[KyferLegs]

Yugoslav Diplomats to the General Assembly

The Yugoslavs were already in the assembly, waiting. Both knew an act of 'counter-evidence,' or in the past, Montenegro was going to attempt to foil their ambitions. The question was how to counter it. One of the Yugoslav diplomats stood and adjusted his tie. "On the whims of the cargo jets over Montenegrin airspace, Yugoslavia would like to retract previous claims of aggression on the intent of them being unarmed. We will want to discuss upfront and showcase proof of their contents, which were only leaflets. The diplomats showcased a folder, which had the mission statement and briefing recordings. All evidence lined up with the contents, only flyers and methods to intimate the population in believing Yugoslavian liberation. "Yugoslavia first decided to enact this plan on behalf of all Montenegrins so that they could have their own choice in the matter. We knew Montenegro would never choose to inform their population of choice. It would only be the government. There was no referendum in the case. Including, Nikola, by all means, is a tyrant, this is his war, but with the discovery of these possible crimes by Montenegro, we will not release statements on such." The other diplomat then stood as he held the proof they gave on the case of Montenegrin crimes that supposedly happened. "Yugoslavia would like to inform the assembly that current conditions with the election of a new president, that our government at this very moment is enacting reforms to fix the issues of our past. Including, we will be signing the Die Nürnberger Konventionen to attempt to stop heinous crimes ever happening again in the Balkans. Currently, Yugoslavia is trying to initiate recovery and humanitarian aid to those suffered by the past and the crimes committed by Reljan and Nikola. Current Yugoslav troops are doing their best to help those in need in Montenegrin lands. So far, no war crimes by our modern forces in this war have occurred intentionally. Our forces have avoided civilian areas. And anyone suspect of such in our government is now under trial, and we are willing to send them to international courts." The diplomat then sat as the other reached down and picked up the reports given to Germany.

"Will Montenegrin also like to counter the statement over lies? You have no quarrels with the Bosnians cause they aren't allowed to have such and forced into deprived conditions. Controlled and killed, this has occurred longer than the previous government-controlled by tyrants in Yugoslavia in Bosnian lands. Due to this claim, Yugoslavia is also willing to have advisors and be monitored in the future and do what is necessary to clear our name."

The Yugoslav diplomat shuffled and became loud and passionate in his speech. "However, the fact Montenegro continue to dismiss these claims of proof that both Yugoslavia and Prussia-Bavaria have put their efforts into, with also the fact Yugoslav troops have currently halted their attacks to allow this meeting to take place under limited warfare. Including, Yugoslavia never insisted or wanted war with Macedonia. Macedonia is joining in to claim their wants. They have no friendship with the Montenegrins. It is only a ruse to get their way and damage the sovereignty of Yugoslavia. In forgiveness, we are willing a ceasefire. That is all on Macedonia."

He leaned against his podium and slapped the folder of proof given by Yugoslavia. "But, the main point to talk of, Tezcat are you willing to believe a nation only by its insults and reliance on the past to avoid dealing with such crimes? We bring proof and evidence on suffering of the Bosnians currently. Montenegro brings insults and opinions! Over history and past events that we regret and want to fix now? Yugoslavia thought the UN helps nations grow forward and get these past events resolved! The fact that Montenegro continued and continues to fail to admit to their crimes is heinous and evil to the innocents that have no justice in their North! The past of the Balkans is tragic. But these are only words, not evidence. You bring up events that remain invalid under changing times. However, Yugoslavia is unwilling to see herself painted as the aggressor here when these nations signed such 'Resolutions.' So that our nation can fade to obscurity and continue to have its people harmed that reside in our border. Furthermore, we will also like to ask if German diplomats to the UN can speak for us on the subjections of claims and the reports of their documents before any further statement given by the Montenegrins and Tezcats?"

[voxapocrypha]

The Federation ambassador to the UN, Duran Marson, would lean back in his seat as he listened to the representatives of the two opposing sides in the room, having received his own orders from Federation high command. Back in the Federation Mainland decisions had been made, and while he did not personally agree with them he'd bring them to the UN floor and he would defend those positions as if they were more important than anything else. He would wait for the Yugoslavian diplomat to finish their long speech about the crimes of Montenegro, intervention by Germania and Macedonia, and a dozen other things, just sitting by and watching as his tail swayed behind him.

Duran, being Festria and his stature as such made him.. well, bigger than anyone else in the room, as Festria were largely only found in Federation territories and some Preusian territories on the Federation border. His long purely white hair had been done up in a pony-tail and the suit he wore was clean and colored a dark blue with a black tie and undershirt, to which he would tug the collar of to adjust it lightly before he just undid one of the buttons and would idly move the stack of papers he had in front of him to the side.

He'd clear his throat when all was said and done, leaning forward in his seat and adopting an upright posture. With an impassive but clear and projective voice, he'd start speaking.
"Following recent events, the Federation has been monitoring events in the Balkans closely, especially so due to our own facilities in Montenegro. We largely only maintain points of operation in Montenegro due to the presence of a space radar facility in the northern portion of the country. Because of the Yugoslavian Invasion of Montenegro, the lives of Federation contractors and personnel are at risk, as well as our property and the facilities themselves to which are owned and operated by the Federation Armed Forces. While the Federation is not interested in providing direct military assistance to either Macedonia or Montenegro, we are not going to sit idly by as Yugoslavia wages a war of aggression against Montenegro, nor do we endorse the actions of Macedonia though we will not condemn them either."

"It is the firm stance of the Federation that Yugoslavia should withdraw from Montenegro, and leave an investigation to a UN committee into this supposed Bosnian genocide, to which the Federation will happily lend assets to if need be. If there is a genocide underway, then Montenegro should answer, but not to Yugoslavia - they will answer to the international community as a whole for the crimes. Yugoslavia is still the active aggressor in the conflict and the initiator as well, and the object goal from the start was conquest."

"As such the Federation demands a total and complete military withdrawal of Yugoslavian armed forces from Montenegro within the next week or it will endorse and participate in a total arms embargo against Yugoslavia, and a total cessation of hostilities until a UN committee can verify claims of genocide against Bosnians in Montenegro, and after that a total ceasefire to allow UN advisors and forces to then do what must be done and attend to the well being of any victim of Montenegro internal state malice."

"As well, I have been told by my government to deliver a statement on behalf of Federation military command. Federation assets are to be allowed to be pulled out from Montenegro without hostile action directed against them, by air, by sea and by land. If attacked, the Federation will consider it an immediate declaration of war and retaliate in force. Once Federation assets are out of the immediate area of danger we will not engage in direct hostilities."

"That is all I have to say."
He'd lean back a bit, cupping his hands together as he looked at the paper to his side.

[KyferLegs]

The Yugoslav diplomat to the UN got up and began to talk in a calm but somewhat agitated tone. He adjusted his tie again and turned his view to the man from the Federation. He began to speak, standing his ground. "On behalf of Federation assets in the Balkans, we are more than willing to let the Federation take anything deemed necessary that they have established in the region. However, the Federation will be required to inform us of the exact details of where such bases are, and what equipment the Federation use to evacuate or anything they deem necessary." The Yugoslav diplomats turned their gaze to the Montenegrin diplomats. One spoke up loudly and enough so the entire room could hear. "We will not leave the North of Montenegro. However, Yugoslavia is willing to establish a UN zone. With the proper specifications of international law to administer such lands. We will not sit idly by as if crime or genocide never happened. Yugoslavia will not let Montenegro be able to find excuses to hide such from bureaucracy. By all means, we will not be leaving Montenegro lands on behalf of war criminals and nations who oppose our ideological beliefs in this matter if the UN agrees to a motion that will take away the current Montenegrin administration from Bosnia, either by a UN International zone or independent administration and if decided on a Yugoslav autonomous republic. Montenegro also must be under a state of advisory like Yugoslavia to keep such crimes occurring in the Balkans."

The Yugoslav diplomat sat and leaned in his chair for a moment, sighing as the other stood up in his turn. "Yugoslavia will also agree to a ceasefire, along city lines currently occupied in Montenegro. It will be for the sake of keeping Bosnians and any other minorities safe under a UN investigation. Yugoslavia will follow all guidelines given by the United Nations to do such, even the demilitarization of specific regions In Montenegro for the population's livelihood. Including, we ask Macedonia to agree to all acts of the ceasefire with no borders or things being exchanged or sanctioned. Yugoslavia again wants all members to know we never wanted conflict with our Southern neighbors." The other diplomat sat, waiting for the UN's response.

[drakazure]

The lone Saxon ambassador, Kai Holland, in the room cleared her throat before standing and begin speaking; "Mr Nocelotl, I believe you have failed to properly read the letter from the Bavarian-Prussian administration. We made no claims that the acts in which the SFR of Yugoslavia were at all justified, only that the right to war was justified." She said, standing before the room. "Clearly, your accusation of our incompetence shows that of your own. Never once did we make the statement that the Yugoslavians told the truth about the beginning of this war, only that the Montenegrins are just as guilty of crimes against humanity."

"Additionally, in our letter, we outlined the conditions agreed upon by the new administration of Yugoslavia- even if details were left out for the sake of brevity." Clearing her throat again, Kai began to read off a page scripted and signed by one Frederick Horst. "The Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia shall agree to the following statements; that the administration should agree to sign white peace with Macedonia; the administration should agree to allow Wehrmacht advisors within the Yugoslavian armed forces; the administration should agree to allow Bavarian-Prussian placements within the Yugoslavian government to ensure that the administration does not revert; the administration should agree to sign Die Nürnberger Konventionen; the state should agree to begin liberalization effective immediately."

"Our main intelligence agency, the Abwehr, has indeed looked into the alleged war crimes of both states. I assure you, no expense is spared with the Abwehr's funding, nor is the training. The investigation undertaken by Sofia Waltz was conducted thoroughly and the results were scrutinized by every possible vector. The outcome? While Yugoslavian war crimes are well known to the Abwehr and the Nordadrian administration, we firmly believe that the new administration will be significantly more accommodating. On the other side of the coin, the Montenegrin war crime claims are just as founded in reality as those of the Yugoslavians. "

"Case in point, Bavaria-Prussia stands by her claims."

[Aesir Tempest]

Ṇàchykh Zhu [ɳɐcx ʒʊ] (who's name has suddenly changed between his introduction and now almost like an entire language had just been invented) would answer both the Yugoslavs and the Germanics. He had listened to them spout what he considered absolute nonsense and he was not about to let that slide.

[All is spoken in Ngækh and translated for all other representatives]

"Honorable Representatives of the General Assembly, I have had enough of claims of evidence without any proof from the Yugoslavs and now the Germanics. Both of them have now claimed war crimes have been committed by the Montenegrins, yet have offered nothing in evidence to prove such a thing. If I claimed there was a teapot orbiting the sun I would be asked to prove it, yet the Yugoslavs and Germanics are asking us to accept their claims without proof. Let me break down their some points piece by piece and see if I understand what they are expecting us to believe.

"Firstly the claims that it was Montenegrin Aggression that started this war. I think this point can be and has been proven demonstrably false. If any state flew military cargo planes over any other state's territory, I think it can be fair to assume that an attack is imminent. Especially since we know that Yugoslavia was already being aggressive towards Montenegro. Yugoslavia has demanded that Montenegro unite with it, even after a referendum was held in which the people rejected unification. Yugoslavia knew that Montenegrins did not support them and so instead decided to stage an incident that they knew could not be ignored to justify their war of aggression. All responsibility for this war falls squarely upon Yugoslavia.

"Now on to the issue of war crimes. Montenegro is a well known Republic and member of this assembly. They have contributed to the world many a time and even now come to us for aid. What sort of idiotic nation would be committing verifiable war crimes and come to the UN for help? But let's put that aside for now and focus on the investigation that have been claimed. Firstly, no evidence has been presented to prove these claims. For two governments to be so sure of these claims, there is very little hard evidence. The evidence we do have points to fabrication in order to justify a war of aggression, especially seeing as both states who have claimed to investigate have a vested interest in this war. On the flip side, Montenegro has been extremely forthcoming. They have provided us with evidence showing how it was Yugoslavia who initiated it, how they were threatened. Unlike Yugoslavia who tried to bury such things.

"So let us end off with a summary of what has occurred, Yugoslavia launched an unprovoked and unjustified campaign of terror on their neighbor. When called out for this unprovoked aggression they resorted to fabricated lies and falsehoods. Their close neighbor has accepted these lies as truth in order to install a government of their liking in Yugoslavia. And absolutely no evidence has been shown that proves that Montenegro has done anything wrong, while we have plenty of evidence against Yugoslavia. From where I stand here, I think it is clear that we are looking at a failed attempt to justify blatant and naked aggression. It is a must that we here in the UN stand by the states that are being invaded and condemn in the harshest possible terms Yugoslavia for their blatant lies and disregard for life."

[drakazure]

-- haha guys derg and I totally didn't decide to be friends in the past in the future after the past has happened and oh god it's all falling apart help me the timeline is disintegrat
-- but uh I got permission to say that I have satellite imagery in the past/future from derg (do any of us exist? where am I?)
-- additionally, so everyone is on the same page, the war crimes are indeed true, got cleared by the almighty and glorious moff No I didn’t.
-- Also, I am both very tired and unable to find the proper information myself, I may edit some of this tomorrow if it's inaccurate (ex. 'marked as North Montenegro', can't check if it's actually north Montenegro tonight since it's nearly midnight) ALSO the fucking descriptions are gonna be short since it's midnight and I can't exactly check with anyone to make sure they're accurate

As the representative from Tezcat finished speaking, Holland's phone lit up and vibrated. Moving quickly, she unlocked her phone, being greeted by a message from Horst himself; "Imagery declassified."

Smiling, Holland stood up once again, taking a sip of water before continuing in German. "Again, you are clinging to the idea that we supported Yugoslavia's beginning to this war. There's no question- if Yugoslavia had flown military airliners into Nordadrian space, they'd be shot down in an instant." Holland briefly reached under her desk to procure a manila folder, clearly filled with more than it could handle, before setting it down. "As for the war crimes of Montenegro, the Abwehr has collected a plethora of information," She said, opening the folder. The first items that she produced were satellite imagery, marked as North Montenegro, showing large ghettos. Pulling away the first images revealed much closer images of said ghettos, clearly taken from the ground. "Firstly, we have satellite imagery of large ghettos, courtesy of our friend, the Republic of Crowns. Secondly, multiple agents were dispatched to investigate and report," Underneath the second set of images would be a detailed Abwehr document, lining out the specifics of the operations done and the information gathered.

"Lastly, you clearly have not been listening to anything that I've said; Bavaria-Prussia fully believes that Yugoslavia should be punished- and we have. We've reached an ultimatum with the Yugoslavians, which we believe to be satisfactory." Holland took a deep breath before continuing. "I believe I speak on behalf of most, if not all, European nations when I say that it is not within your justification to dictate how this conflict should be resolved- you are half-way across the planet, neither yourself nor the Federation have any right to be intervening with European affairs." Holland, visibly sweating, continued. "The military administration of Bavaria-Prussia prides itself in it's militarist ethos- especially our treatment of civilians. What has happened in both Montenegro and Yugoslavia is, frankly, utterly disgusting- however, it is not the place of those in the Americas to decide the fate of this conflict."

[voxapocrypha]

As the representatives argued the Federation ambassador to the UN, Duran, had stood up quietly after the German ambassador's speech and quietly excused himself, holding a phone in his hand as it would gently buzz, the glow of the screen visible between his digits as he would step out to take the call. He'd heard enough, and usually, by the end of it he was expected to say something - but he had nothing of which to relay or say - a retort wasn't needed, actions were going to make him and the Germans likely enemies in the future anyway.

As he stepped out into the hall, he would make his way a fair bit down and then turn a corner, before he would check if it were clear and then he would put in the earpiece he wore and then accept the call once the bluetooth had paired.

After standing for a minute and a half, he'd have given only a few single word responses, acknowledgements mostly, and then he would end the call by pulling his thumb over the red hang-up icon, and slip the phone back into his pocket, zipping it closed and pushing the tab into a tiny magnetic slot so that no one could just try to pick-pocket him nor would his phone just fall from his pocket. He would not return to the floor of the assembly, rather he had decided to make his way towards his office, and once there he began to write a statement to the UN.
