Centralis would like to be the first nation to sign up for this project. Fusion power has long been a virtual Holy Grail for our scientific community.

The Tupanian Guardian

Jan 17th

- President Alex N. M. declared a few minutes ago that he supports the idea of a region-wide Fusion Research Initiative as originally proposed by Noosland earlier today. "Our nation and all the Apolyton region will greatly benefit from such valuable research effort, which will undoubtly boost our scientific community and will open new ways for the development of our common goals".
Dr. Ferd Lambast, one of the most prominent scientists in Tupan and well-known for his bad manners, mumbled something like "yeah, it is nice" when asked about the initiative.

The People's republic of Dark Valley agrees, and proposes the formation of an official body, the Apolyton Fusion Reseach Initiative. All AFRI member nations will have to agree to the following terms:

-Since this is such an important issue, I think that every signatory should agree to pledge at least 1% of anual GDP to the issue.
-All new technologies aquired by the initiative should NOT be exported to other countries by individual memeber nations. This should prevent other nations on benefiting from the techs, but not paying the price.
-Severe measures would be imposed on any signatory which doesn't obey the rules above.

The Kingdom of Wine agrees to the terms proposed by Dark Valley.

The Kingdom will also donate 10 Bilion drinks, worth of various equipment, to the research, we believe in this project, and we do not care about its price.

The Commonwealth agrees to the terms proposed by Dark Valley, however asks if we may have an amnesty from the GDP pledge until such time as our nation is rebuilt.

Since I am not the only signatory I think that either:

a) elections to the position of chairman of the organization and he should accept such demands.
b) a majoritarian vote held on the issue.

Signatories to the AFRI treaty:

Noosland
Centralis
Pasiphae
Dark Valley
Wine
Jackson
Eation
Guynemia
Tupan

mind you, that all of us are aware to the situation in Alecrast, but your economy is thriving and should rebuild itself swiftly.

Our vote would be for support of your nation. You've suffered unjustly in the war against the evil dictator Sheep, and we offer you our support.

On a related note: I am compiling a document which should ally all reasonable forces in the Apolyton region. The madness which is the AI menace should stop.

Seeing the broad acceptance and the support given to the idea, I present the candidacy of PRDV as the chairman of AFRI.

It's more of a black market at the moment. The Animal Liberation Front are being rather troublesome.

As they're always. Well, I am sure that they won't a problem for long.
however we must not be to openly hostile against them since the Ubinian government supports them. mind you, Ubinia is at war against the Sovietsky Soyuz, which has a warm relationship with Sheepstan.

....so throwing them in jail for killing the armed guards at our food storage facilities then exacting our recently reinstated death penalty upon them would be "openly hostile", yes?

Noosland acknowledges (again) the terms of APRI, and urges we formalise the construction of our permanent reserach site ASAP.

agreed.

Once a final map of nations is drawn, We'll promply convene and decide on location of future research facilities.

the Kingdom of Alecrast is accepted to the AFRI with an exemption from financial participation for a limited period of time. I must warn that if Alecrast fails to start payments when it would be required to do so, it would be excluded from the organization. All of us have a heavy financial burden to carry, because of the security situation.

The People's Republic would gladly join this project. Nuclear fusion is a very clean and efficient way to make electrical power and I pledge my support to make to world a cleaner place. We have 100's of nuclear scientists ready to healp in the research. Our population is already nearly too large for geothermal power and are looking for other clean energy sorces.
