At around 2:00 P.M yesterday , a unnamed ship entered the waters of the CSN (Coalition of Sovereign Nations). It carried the flag of Msn World . We tried to make contact with the ship , which appeared to be a old warship several times with no avail .
As it approached a CSN Nation , the CSN Council dispatched 2 SBNs to try making contact again . The subs tried to make contact but the ship refused to respond .
At around 2:30 P.M , the ship was around 30 N.m (danger zone) from a CSN nation , the subs were forced to shoot it down .
The CSN Council will warn Msn world and other nations that posing a threat to other CSN Nations is a no-go . We will have to eliminate the threat before it is unstoppable .

Regards ,
CSN Council

The People's Republic is extremely concerned by this act of piracy initiated by the CSN. The right to travel freely in international waters is not one that can be interfered with in such an aggressive manner. We warn the CSN that the People's Republic will not recognise any sovereignty over waters more than 12 nautical miles from the coast, and we warn that any attempt to interfere with any of our vessels in international waters will be regarded as an act of war, and any nations who are the victims of your piracy can be sure of our full support.

The Armed Republic Of Mationland is acting as a spokesnation for the CSN :
This claim is totally groundless , you only aim to crush all sovereign nations in the coalition . This will not be tolerated by us , since we are a member of the CSN and our duty is to protect other nations . We will not tolerate any nation which is posing a threat to any CSN Nation . If it refuses to leave CSN territory , the CSN will regard it as an act of war and will beforced to destroy it . The CSN warmly welcomes any nations which are blamelessly accused to war by such monkey minded nations to join the CSN . We will protect you and come to your aid in times of war or acts of war .

Warning to Shildonia :
Your "warning" will be taken as a threat to detoriate ties between us . We take this matter very seriously and would like to re-establish ties with Shildonia .

We are not willing to tolerate any nation that shows such a flagrant disregard for international law. Your organisations acts of piracy represents a threat to the security of all nations the world over, as well as a threat to world trade. If you wish to restore diplomatic relations, all your organisation need do is to cease these acts of piracy and to respect the rule of international law.

The Empire of Xeraph is concerned about the events that occured in the territorial waters off Mationland. While it is true that a foreign warship entered said waters without contacting Mationland's CommCenter, and Mationland authorities attempted to communicate with the intruder, it would have been a better response on Mationlands part to ask it's allies advice in a situation like this. As a relatively new ally of Xeraph, we would have advised Mationland to utilise a stealth strike-force to board the ship to ascertain it's status. For all Mationland knew, the ship may have been experiencing a communication breakdown, or perhaps a disease had swept through the crew, rendering them helpless.
The bottom line is that all methods of peaceful solutions should be used before force.

respectfully,


General Lord John Strickland, High Commander Xeraphian Forces, in the Name of the Emperor.

Before this crisis escalates any further, The Republic of Shinritta would like to host a peace summit in the coastal city of Yavin for the leaders of the disputing parties to diplomatically solve these problems. In those regards, the Republic of Shinritta would also like to declare a state of neutrality in these proceedings.

Mationland takes its Security of its neighbouring CSN Nations and our own security as a top priority . Any nation who enters our territorial waters without any permission (which is carrying arms) is considered an act of war .

We have taken your suggestion to the Parliment several days ago and have decided to implement this tactic to our defence forces in the future . Here is how our defence navy will react in the future :
1)Make contact with ship
-Ship refuses to respond/leave territory-
2)Dispatch ships and subs depeding on the threat and try to make contact
-Ship still refuses to respond or leave territory)-
3)Mationland Homeland Security Navy Stealth Troopers will board the ship and do appropriate actions (arrest/warn/fine)
-Ship refuses to let troopers board/fires at trooper ship and still refuses to leave territory)-
4)Open Fire and sink ship , rescue survivors and hold them in legal custody
5)Inform nation that the ship belongs to and the actions after which depend on the situation .

While we respect your nations right to self-defence, we will not tolerate any attempts to sink vessels in international waters. All nations have a right to transit the high seas. This is a matter of international law, and is essential for the free movement of goods that is essential to the wellbeing of the global economy.
By refusing to comply with this right, you violate the sovereignty of all nations, and the People's Republic will not negotiate away our right to transit the worlds oceans to a band of pirates.

Although Mationland respects International Laws , it is obvious that Msn World was trying to interfere with our nation's sovereignity . This will NOT be tolerated by Mationland . The Armed Republic withdraws its peace offer to Shildona and condemns Shildona for interfering with our sovereignity and places Shildona along with Msn World and Gardenburg on the list of polictically unsound nations .

OOC: 30 nautical miles? Isn't that way too much?

Traditionally international waters start at 12 nautical miles. Hence my objections.

The Emperor is gratified by your response. He has made a declaration that if this procedure is implemented and followed, any nation interfering in the workings of a Xeraphian ally will be considered interference of the Empire of Xeraph itself. Appropriate retaliation, up to and including military intervention, will be considered.

respectfully,

General Lord John Strickland, Commander EX Forces, in the Name of the Emperor.
