Artanian conference

[hyraemous]

Jaizkibel Garaycochea, Lead Delegate for the Kundrati Union

I agree with the proposal by Ikradon that there should be a security council to hash out disagreements between our countries. After all, we need something that should be between ourselves and the World Congress; otherwise, we will be throwing our concerns to an organization that is supposed to deal with the world's problems, not Artania's problems.

As for the joint defense idea, we are also in agreement. We think reliance on other states that aren't from Artania gives us a massive hole in our continental security that should be gapped. We shouldn't have to rely on Majatrans or Dovanians or Seleyans who want us to stay out yet want to meddle in our affairs. Otherwise, it would just be hypocrisy, which we have all tolerated for centuries. Perhaps this shouldn't be through the Artanian Union - we think the AU should be a purely economic alliance dealing with economic matters for now, lest we bloat this organization with too many responsibilities, which helped with its downfall long ago.
