State Dept: Formation of Alliance Commission

Comment-newspaper 45 comments  more than a year ago

A few days ago, I proposed the creation of a new commission to handle the task of where the United States should go after our stint with neutrality is over. This commission, titled "People Organized to Restart Negotiations", is a mix of economic gurus, military commanders, career civil-servants, and overall Erepublik geniuses. The commission is chaired by myself, in my role as Secretary of State. The vice-chair is my newly appointed Deputy Secretary of State for Alliance Creation, Proggypop. The commission is merely an advisory committee, but I plan to (and already have) used it extensively to aide me in the negotiations process with other countries.

The committee consists of:

Gaius Julius, Federalist Party President
Tiacha, United States Marine and former Chief of Staff
Mjdiv, White House Press Secretary
Inwegen, Former Secretary of State, current Chief of Staff
Eugene Harlot, Chairman, Joint Chiefs of Staff and USMC Commandant
Bastion, General, Mobile Infantry
One Eye, Economic Genius and Economic Council Member

I'm proud to lead this excellent committee as we head into a new alliance for the United States.

On a related point, I recently attended a preliminary meeting with several nations regarding a possible alliance. Representatives from the United Kingdom, Spain, Ireland, Canada, and myself representing the USA were present for an extremely productive 90 minute meeting. To be clear, those 4 nations are not the only nations the USA wants to see in a new alliance, but they were the only ones present at the meeting. We hammered out some rough points about a new alliance and hopefully we can meet again to hammer out more fine details. To be clear, this is not close to the formation of an alliance. The long, hard road of a new alliance has just began, but I'm proud to say we've taken the first steps and hopefully it will lead to a new and stable relationship. Among the sticking points for this new alliance are free trade among all nations, closer relations between allies, being a defense-first alliance, and a stricter alliance charter. We hope to continue negotiations and will keep the public updated as we do so.

Oh yes, Tradition Pictures

This is probably my favorite picture, ever. I saw it and thought "I must share this with the world". I'm sure many of you have already seen it. Someone has removed it, but I feel like I must add it back.

Pertamaxx.

Also, "People Organized to Restart Negotiations" ... the acronym is PORN. I feel like that is too much of a coincidence to be an accident.

Just like in RL, the Americans can't make a decision without forming a big farty bells-and-whistles commission/committee/bureaucratic organisation to discuss the issue for weeks. Then it releases its findings once everyone has forgotten about it and everyone is more confused than before. Then a sub-committee is formed to review the findings and this continues ad nauseum.

Yawn.

Seriously though. Do you think this is necessary?

More ego stroking for Scrabman I see. Guess the rumors of his giving up on the 3rd alliance were dead wrong and or were re-started by a renewed ATLANTIS looming over the eUSA and its involvement (Especially SCrabs public breaking of his own orders) with Germany.

Harrison Richardson Day 560, 16:16

Pardon? I'm not quite sure how this is "ego-stroking". And rumors are just that, rumors.

ATLANTIS isn't restarting.

Neutrality is a stupid option, all conflicts reach the neutral in some way at some point and we will regret remaining neutral when that time comes.

great job
but I believe in being crazy the countries which you are the Ex or existing allies of united states think of something innovative for example forming an alliance including indonesia thus the game won't be routine

We were never neutral. We were obviously always on the side of Poland and Sweden. I wish our president wasn't so deceitful.

Harrison Richardson

Harrison Richardson Day 561, 08:20

Our President fought for Germany.. and that caused a public uproar..

Claire - This is the job of the Secretary of State, and that is why I took the initiative to get a good group together to help me.

And yes, this is clear censorship.

We've been neutral for a while now and I can't help but notice that Peace hasn't invaded us nor has our economy collapsed. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to stay out of pointless European wars for a while longer.
