PROCLAMATION IN CONDEMNATION OF THE CARENTANIAN NAVAL BLOCKADE OF THE JURZAN
The undersigned, members of the international community,
OBSERVING that the Carentanian government has instituted an anti-Jurzan naval blockade, declaring its intent to forcibly search any vessels headed for the Jurzan within international waters.
NOTING that the aforementioned belligerent in the act of blockade is not operating within their conventionally accepted bounds of maritime territorial jurisdiction, those being restricted to territorial waters except in the case of imminent hazard to human life.
CONCLUDING that with respect to the aforementioned, the said arms embargo must be considered to be illegal in respect to portions occurring outside of the territorial waters of the Carentanian state.
OBSERVING that, having undertaken this action without the consultation of powers with interests in the region and established maritime powers or without seeking alternative options with the government of the Jurzan, they have acted in a manner unconductive to international stability in an already volatile time, in a blatant act of provocation against the Jurzan and states in association with the Jurzan.
OBSERVING that with their actions, Carentanian government would establish a precedent for the abandonment of internationally accepted conventions of sanctity of maritime commerce, safety of life at sea and the freedom of maritime navigation.
HEREBY CONDEMN the Carentanian naval blockade in the strongest possible terms as a violation of Jurzani sovereignity and the international conventions regarding freedom of navigation and safety of life at seas.
DEMAND the Carentanian government to desist with its naval blockade of international and Jurzani territorial waters to immediate effect.
CALL for the respect of national sovereignity of the Jurzani people which has thus been violated by this naval blockade.
PLEDGE to consider further measures in defends of the aforementioned should this proclamation be ineffective.
