[War] Crazy Business

[Daniel Sanderson]

"Crazy Business"
Prime Minister Jack Decker
Australia
Tuesday August 5 2014

Decker sat in his office, watching the news, footage of various delegations approaching the UN building in New York. It was crazy. Both sides wanted to send the other to the ICJ or the ICC. But those tribunals were all voluntary. Nations only went if they wanted to. The biggest problem with the UN was that it wasn't a global government, no nation was really, truly, bound by it.

On top of that Romania was telling the world to get fucked, literally, and closing itself up. Decker wondered how long that would really last, in this globalised world. The only real isolationist nations were...well, there HAD been North Korea, and Cuba.

"War crimes?" Decker asked rhetorically with a chuckle as they crossed to the Chinese Ambassador. "That's a bit rich, anyone heard of Tibet?"

On his desk was the draft Security Council Resolution. Even though Australia wasn't on the Council, copies had circulated around diplomatic circles.

The Consulate-General in Romania was packing up shop, per the Romanian request. Decker had told DFAT to have a senior diplomat take leave and have an all-expenses paid holiday in Bucharest, so he still had someone there.

There was a knock on the door, and Lucas entered.

"They're all crazy, Lucas." Decker grumbled. "They thrive off chaos."

"Gets worse." Lucas said, handing over a sheet of paper. "Sent directly to our office by courier." 

Decker scanned the sheet and sighed. "Damn...this is getting worse. Have Joanna, and Steve Costakis, meet me as soon as possible."


--ACTIONS TAKEN--
1. Just dismay really!
2. All personnel to leave Romania save for a trusted senior diplomat who's raiding the minibar until called for :D
3. Crunch time for Australia. Can we fence sit forever? Or make the hard call on where we stand, the West we've come from, or the East where we are!
