Treaty of Culoria: Difference between revisions

The '''Pax-UCATreaty Peaceof TreatyCuloria''' ([[Packilvanian]]: ''luKhavnan aluSalaam aBankhilfaniya nalu-UCAaKuloriya'') is a legally binding treaty between [[Packilvania]] and the [[Union of Commonwealth Alliances]]. The treaty followed the withdrawal of Axdel and the UCA from the [[Puntalian Compromise Treaty|Puntalia Compromise Treaty]] of 2020. The agreement was agreed in September 2022. It is known formally as the "Treaty of Understanding and Cooperation between Packilvania and the Union of Commonwealth Alliances Regarding the Territorial, Diplomatic and Military Status of Rodenia, New Puntalia and Puntalia" ([[Packilvanian]]: ''luKhavnan aluShugulmayan naluKanas luidaween Bakhilfaniya naluKabal luGurash luShahan luNovren luTadka luMaqif aluJahidishme, aluIluhidishme naluDominishme aLagaad, aKanash nadine aluKanash luJadid''; [[Wikipedia: Norwegian language|Norgsveltian]]:''Traktaten om forståelse og samarbeid mellom Packilvania og Union av Samveld Allianser angående de territoriale, diplomatiske og militære statusen av Rodenia, New Puntalia og Puntalia'')

The Agreement was drafted by Packilvania and brought to the floor for debate by the UC Council member for [[Alksearia]] in August 2022. At first, Packillvania proposed that [[Great Morstaybishlia]] should act as the mediator and arbitrator for future disputes arising from the agreement. Several member states, most notably [[Durakia]] and [[Norgsveldet]] protested that Morstaybishlia was not a neutral actor and wopuld be prejudiced to side with Packilvania in any future disputes. [[Alksearia]] felt that Morstaybishlia had the weight and influence to ensure compliance with the treaty from Packilvania. Similar sentiments were shared by other member states. Some member states suggested that the International Forum should act as an arbitrator but [[Packilvania]] refused on the basis that the IF and its Security Council would be biased towards the UCA. Other candidates were proposed such as [[Nystatiszna]] (which was ruled out because it was too weak, small and dealing with an ongoing war on its doorstep), [[Tretrid]] (it was not seen as adequately neutral as it was an observer state of the UCA) and [[Asendavia]] (which some member states did not have positive relations with that nation). In the end they settled on [[Oscrelia]] being the arbitrator as it was typically neutral in international affairs.

The second area of contention was the fact that Packilvania wanted trade sanctions to be removed. A legal argument was presented that because the UCA did not coordinate trade policy as a bloc, it would not be viable to implement a trade mandate over the whole organisation. Although the [[North Concordian Economic Forum]] arguably had such capabilities, given that not all UCA member states were NCEF members, it was not possible. Other countries especially felt that this would be akin to the UCA dictating trade policy. [[Durakia]], especially, outlined their refusal to sign onto any agreement which set a precedent for Packilvania or the UCA to dictate any weakening of their trade restrictions with external powers, echoing the nation's historic affiliation with an [[w:Economic nationalism|economically-patriotic]] skepticism towards free trade. As such, Packilvania presented a parallel agreement called the [[Pax-UCA Trade Partnership]] which willing member states could sign on to. Although targeted at the entire UCA, political analysts believed that it was especially desirable for the NCEF member states especially Norgsveldet Imperial Realms to participate as they represented a lucrative market for Packilvania as well as Alksearia because they are among the states seen as critical for securing Packilvanian trade beyond the Concordian Ocean (see the Gateway States policy section in [[Foreign relations of Packilvania]] for more details).
