PCBaller World/The New Warsaw Pact

The New Warsaw Pact (NWP) is an intergovernmental military alliance spanning Eurasia and North America, comprising of eight member states: the Polish Social Nationalist Republic, the Neo-Soviet Union, the Islamic Emirate of Finland, the Worker's Commune of Arimexico, the Federated Socialist Republic of California, Puerto Rico, Communist Canada and Balkan Union. Additionally, the alliance has two observer states: the Republic of Sorbia and the National Republic of Hungary.

The NWP adopts an anti-liberal and anti-neocon stance, with no ideological requirements beyond those stated. It is important to note that "liberal" in this context does not necessarily mean "progressive," and progressive states are welcome to join the pact. Currently, the alliance is involved in anti-terrorist activities in Lithuania as outlined in provisions 1 and 4.

To apply for membership in the NWP, an application must be submitted and approved by all member states, after which the provisions must be ratified by the applicant state.

Congresses of the NWP are held at cities of member or observer states disclosed in the invitation letters. The HQ of the NWP is in Przyokopowa 28, 01-208, Warsaw. Observer states are permitted to participate in the public congress discussions, but they do not possess veto power over decisions or applications.

Origins
The New Warsaw Pact (NWP) traces its roots to a diplomatic exchange between Poland and the Neo-Soviet Union regarding a mutual defense pact. This correspondence subsequently led to the participation of Norway-Sweden and Sorbia in the congress. During the congress, the Kultokrat of Poland introduced the idea of forming an alliance. While Sorbia immediately applied for membership, it was denied due to ongoing conflicts with North Germany and instead granted observer status. Canada later joined the pact as an observer state. Between the 2nd and 3rd congresses, Norway-Sweden withdrew from the New Warsaw Pact.

1st Congress
The inaugural New Warsaw Pact Congress was convened in Warsaw to discuss various pertinent topics, including the admission of Finland and Arimexico as members and the provisions of the pact.

It was unanimously agreed upon by all member nations to approve the applications of Finland and Arimexico for membership. However, the Neo-Soviet land of people initially declined the provisions of the New Warsaw Pact. Following the incorporation of Article 11, the provisions were ultimately ratified by the Neo-Soviet land of people, thereby bringing the congress to a close.

2nd Congress
The second New Warsaw Pact Congress convened in Kraków to address pertinent issues regarding the alliance's operations. The main agenda was to approve Hungary as an observer state, which received unanimous support from all members present, without any complications.

3rd congress
The 3rd New Warsaw Pact Congress convened in Leningrad, with adherence to clause of Article 12.2, resulting in limited information dissemination to the public and international observers. While the nature of the conference revolved around military and political strategy, details of the proceedings remained confidential, aside from the promotion of Communist Canada from observer to member state.

4th Congress
The 4th New Warsaw Pact Congress was convened in Budapest to discuss the admission of The Balkan Union as a member state of the Pact which received unanimous support from all members present, without any complications.

5th Congress
The 5th New Warsaw Pact Congress convened in Helsinki, saw Poland make two discreet announcements to its fellow members through confidential channels. Additionally, Poland has presented a proposal to construct a canal whose precise location remains undisclosed. In this effort, East California and Communist Canada have pledged to contribute their workforce, and the latter has committed to assist in its maintenance. The two Polish announcements made during the Congress pertained to Poland's fulfillment of Article 3, although the specifics of the equipment distributed to NWP member states have been kept confidential.

6th Congress
The 6th New Warsaw Pact Congress convened in Tarnopol, with discussions centering on the establishment of the NWPNET (New Warsaw Pact Internet). This initiative aims to provide a range of social media and utility websites specifically tailored to citizens of Warsaw Pact member states, though it will be available in non-member countries as well. The headquarters for NWPNET will be located in Kraków. Additionally, the Congress addressed the possibility of Soviet intervention in the ongoing Eastern crisis, particularly if the Federal Republic of Eastern Poland And Lithuania (FRWPIL) were to reject or disregard the proposal to hold peace talks in Visegrad.

7th Congress
The 7th Congress of the New Warsaw Pact, which was convened in Gdańsk, decided to establish a naval blockade in the Eastern Baltic Sea to hinder the supply of resources to the FRWPIL, and an air blockade around the FRWPIL to prevent the transfer of troops and equipment. Additionally, the Congress deliberated on the reentry of Norway-Sweden into the New Warsaw Pact, and its membership was duly ratified.

8th Congress
The 8th Congress of the New Warsaw Pact was convened in Minsk, where the Council for Mutual Technoeconomic Assistance was established. The Congress also addressed the issue of the Eastern Crisis and ways to expedite its resolution. While the Finnish stance was to explore potential solutions, the Soviet position was uncompromising, culminating in a directive to launch a bombing campaign against Vilnius. In response to the escalating conflict, Poland suggested the formation of a joint NWP task force to assist the Polish army, but consensus could not be reached among the attendees regarding the crisis.

9th Congress
The 9th Congress, which was convened in Sevestopol, marked the entry of the Federal Republic of Illyria as a member state of the New Warsaw Pact, as its entry was officially approved.
