IPO Meeting: Seperatism in Gelibolu

[Delfos]

"I was just answering ipod Myer. As i said, peace force would be a last resort, we sure need a strategy for last resort, but my main goal is to pressure for diplomatic solution, organizing meetings with the active parties."

[Osamafune]

The Collosean Ipod Bakoyannis VI came bursting into the room. "Sorry I'm late!" he says. "A sudden storm delayed my flight."

Bakoyannis VI takes a seat at the table. "Could someone sum up for me what's been discussed so far?"

[Aquatoria]

The Canadian Ipod, Micheal Morena looked at the other Ipods as they discussed this subject. "I can't believe we are arguing about the indepedence of one colony, there are two! What about them? Now let's be realistic. The People's Republic of Loyan and the Greater Canadian Empire are both members of PI. If we go before the Xyraeli government and demand the Independence of all of the revolting colonies, the Xyraelis will think we are trying to undermine Xyraeli power on that continent. The honorable Ipod of Loyan knows this. It doesn't matter if we go before them as members of PI or IPO, we will not be listened to. I suggest the other nations demand the Xyraeli colonies' independence."

[Union]

"Micheal, we talk this over breakfast yesterday. Like I said before, we can't just go charging into other people's business. This is a internal dispute, we cannot force our agenda on Xyrael. All we should do is make sure that the Xyraelis do not go too far with their suppression of the rebellion and promote the possibility of settling the dispute diplomatically."   

Frustrated, Tia took out his pills and swallowed two.

"I do not want to see IPO turn into a military alliance or a house of political influence. IPO is not about pushing politics, it's about spreading the ideals of humanitarian and harmony. If a person does not believe in an ideology force upon him or her, there will only be dissent, no matter how morally upright the ideology. If the Xyraeli public cannot believe in peace, there can be no peace...not a easy one at least.

It will only serve to buildup tension between Xyrael and her independent colonies for future conflict."

[Aquatoria]

"Trust me Tia, IPO will not turn into a military alliance or a house of political influence. We just need Xyrael to know that all we are doing is spreading the ideals of humanitarian and harmony. But they will see it as PI trying to undermine a political and military rival. I suggest we host a summit between the leaders of the revolutionaries and the Xyraeli Empire."

[Osamafune]

"I seriously doubt Xyrael would agree to such a thing."

<ooc> Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there three Xyraeli colonies (Moacia'av, Ozia'av, and Laen'ka)? </ooc>

[Aquatoria]

"We must try."

ooc: Yes but Laen'ka is the only one not in revolt.

[Osamafune]

"Very well... Should I forward a message to the Collosean embassy in Xyrael to have them inform the Xyraeli government that the IPO wishes to have this summit?"

<ooc>Who is Laen'ka anyway? </ooc>

[Delfos]

"How can we be talking about independence already? I'm against forcing anything on Xyraeli Administration, specially on asking them to concede independence to their colonies. Of course Xyrael will not give any independence that way, and it will only pressure for a quick solution of the problem, any kind of armed conflict. We must avoid that at all costs! We need to hear clearly the intentions of all parties, even the other colonies mentioned, and specially Xyrali voice, because they are the ones in charge for now. Let's not rush anything. I just want this to be settled by diplomatic confront of interests and see if it's necessary, profitable and reasonable to help those colonies to obtain independence.
As major resource of information and judgment, we have the population to proove if this is what they want."

ooc: I'm not really defending Xyrael but my relations with the nation, and I'm not her to talk about independence just yet, i think 1st we should all gather, as expressed above, at all costs, a diplomatic solution for any kind of conflict of interests.

[Osamafune]

"I don't think we're talking about forcing anything upon Xyrael. Like I said, they wouldn't accept it anyway. But like you, I don't think we should force anything upon them."

[Collatica]

"I cannot say I am entirely convinced that this requires any kind of IPO intervention at this time, diplomatic or not."

[Aquatoria]

I agree with the Delfian Ipod. We should wait to host a summit. Perhaps after we find out whether or not the rest of the population want revolution and freedom. But I would like a summit held. I suggest we send telegrams to the two revolutionary governments and tell them we will only support them if that is what the rest of the population wants.

[Khem]

Myer had been quietly puffing on her pipe while the others were speaking. to listen is to understand, and any bad points will only dig them deeper into a hole of which the only way out is to follow my idea's. she listened to the other representatives and poured tea for all new comers. finaly though she felt it was her time to speak.

"well it would just be good to try and convince both parties to have a sit down before things get out of hand. surely no one can object to at least attempting to get negotiations going between both sides?"

[Delfos]

"Yes, we should do it."

[Pachamama]

Minister Yar had been appointed Terrangars representative ate the IPO only two days ago and already the first meeting was in session. He was about an hour late and had skipped breakfast.
There was a last minute meeting with his government about making Terrangar the place of the IPO HQ and he had been called away for this meeting.
Everything seemed to come in at once. The damn traffic accident had put him in the hospital for almost 2 weeks and now everything was flooding in over his head.
He took a deep breath before he entered the meeting room.
"Ladies and gentlemen please excuse me for being so late. I ask your forgiveness but I would like to call for a short recess to get over the protocol of this meeting so far.
Thank you."
He took his seat as a secretary handed him a copy of the meetings protocol.
