UN Resolution: Dangerous Stockpile Reduction Act
Significant
Definition of stockpile: In military preparation, 'to stockpile' is to move materiel, personnel, and command and control infrastructure to a suitable location in preparation for deployment, or to move such materials into the theatre of war in preparation for combat.
This resolution acknowledges that most United Nations members need stockpiles of weapons to defend themselves from agressive neighbors or from active dissidents within their own country. However, the leaving of stockpiles out in the open, near cities or towns, and in areas where it will contaminate drinking water or the environment is extremely dangerous and costly to clean up.
That is why this resolution believes that U.N members should reduce their stockpiles of weapons to the most conservative amount that they can think off. At most, reduce their stockpile down 1/5 or a more reasonable goal would be to reduce stockpiles of weapons to 1/10 their actual number now.
How? Why?
Section 1: This resolution acknowledges that unsafe stockpile techniques in countries can result in environment contamination, detonation of stockpile ammunition and supplies which may result in numerous casualties, or the allowal of weapons and ammunition as well as dangerous biological and chemical storages to be stolen and used in a terrorist attack.
Section 2: Through the reduction of U.N national stockpiles by a 1/10 to 1/5 margin would decrease the chance of these incidents from occuring. This resolution recommends that the weapons to be decommissioned or destroyed should be of the nuclear, biological, or chemical variety, but it is up to the individual nation.
Section 3: Before the actual reduction in weapon stockpiles can begin, a council of 11 U.N members will be formed. There every U.N member will give a report of all the weapons that they have and a list of where their stockpiles are located. To note, the U.N members on the council will not use this information for their own advantage or give it to another hostile nation or they will face banishment from the United Nations. Once the number of weapons report is submitted the nation in question will be given between 25 years to dismantle 1/10 of their weapon stockpiles, and 40 years to dismantle 1/5 their stockpile. And if they decide to dismantle their weapon stockpile in between those two figures they will be granted a number of years.
Section 4: Finally, remaining stockpiles will be removed from locations that are near cities and towns, or can contaminate environments. They will be put in safe locations and houses in buildings that will reduce the risk of explosion and will always have a military detail around their sites.
Section 5: If Section 4 is not adhered too, the offending nation will be reported to the council.
