The Warzone Jürgen Adler Steven Freephoenix Edmund Wilson / Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin Xingmin Wu Ramon Cañarte Valverde This may be the last discussion of the RP, but if we're going out, I want you all to see what I've concocted as an excuse to how the RP ends. Personally, I believe that it's gotten so stale and so bitter that the RP needs to die atm. The death of the roleplay, and the subsequent rebirth of it sooner or later should be done AFTER rules have been set up and established, systems have been put into place, and other such things. Let it be known here and now that I'm just tired of the attitude that this RP can bring out in people, and you will see this reflected in Dmitry's attitude. April 24, 2047The Kremlin, Moscow, Russia2047 Nuclear Security Summit
Dmitry was tired of it. He was tired of it all: the argument, the politics, the paperwork, and especially the effect it had on him. He had once been such a charming, nice man to others. But now, all he could think on was how everyone that ran the world were nothing but 10-year olds. After the delegations in Pakistan, he had returned to Moscow and shut himself in. He had even refused to play any of his games, talk online, or even simply enjoy a nice walk with his dog, who had laid down beside him. It pained Dmitry, but the problem wasn't, in his mind, the politicians. It was what they held so close to their hands: nuclear weapons. As he waited for others to arrive, he looked to his left side, seeing the black briefcase and having the urge to just open it and see what was inside. But he couldn't. He spent his time waiting for the other nuclear leaders to arrive, in the hopes that he could get them to see everything that had been done was moot if it was to be threatened with nuclear annihilation. He had even invited Putin to watch, and to make sure that everything went according to plan for this summit.

Putin accepted the invitation obediently as any Prime Minister would. Upon arrival at The Kremlin, he was introduced to Edmund Wilson, who had arrived for the summit early. After a brief hello, Putin showed the way to Molchanov. "Zdravstvuyte, gospodin prezident . U menya yest' prem'yer-ministr Vil'son so mnoy . [Hello, Mister President. I have Prime Minister Wilson with me.]" He stated upon entering the summit conference room. |

Dmitry looked up from the desk and saw the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom walk in, trying to put on a fake smile for 1 of the only 2 people in politics he could consider "friends."
"Privet, Prime Minister. I'm glad you could come."

Edmund nodded and offered his hand in greeting.
"It's not a problem. After all, the cycle continues. I visit, you visit, rinse and repeat." He quipped while taking a seat. "I assume refreshments will be served? I can only assume a summit on this topic will take a while."

"But of course," he then turned to one of the Russian guards and ordered him to get some refreshments before turning back to the Prime Minister.
"I'm glad to know that there are those who are willing to show up early and keep me from falling into a boredom-instigated stupor."

"Forgive me if I'm not that helpful in terms of entertainment." Edmund stated gravely. "I was never a good host in that respect. My focus was always on my duty to my country."

"As is mine," Dmitry stated. "You know, I never really wanted to be President of Russia. I was only chosen for the job because I was Voronov's Prime Minister for his second consecutive term."

Jürgen grimaced when he received the summons for the Nuclear Summit....He never did quite like the Geneva Conventions of 1945...but whatever the case, it was something he needed to do. To which he sucked it up, drank the last of his espresso, and headed to the designated meeting place.
He only heard the tail end of President Dmitry's conversation with Edmund Wilson before he spoke.
"The same goes to me, President Dmitry. Though everyone that was with Europe at the time unanimously voted me into office." He stated before looking to the others, nodding to Vladimir Putin, quite surprised that he was in office once more, then nodding to Edmund Wilson.

Steven was a busy man.He had a bunch of projects he was following through.Expected to be in africa by dinner to inspect the renouned drone plant that worked tirelessly beyond the capability of mortal flesh.To see and deploy the future of american forces in africa.Coming in he saw the other leaders, the less humanitarian more partisian then the dogs in congress he thought to himself.Sitting down he was just here for attendence after all, nothing more nothing less.
Without a word or a request for intraduction he was seated by his advisors and agents and went back to his paperwork.The Wings of liberty would land nearby for a short trip to africa but he needed to get this over with at first.

"Good afternoon, Commander Adler. President Freephoenix." Edmund greeted with a nod to the pair of them before taking his seat. "I can only surmise we all have our own commitments in our own nations, so let's begin without any further delay. President Molchanov?"

Dmitry cleared his throat in response before beginning.
"President, Prime Minister, Supreme Commander. Today is the day the the world changes for the better. In response to the terrorism of Mecca and the Vatican, and the GLA still possessing nuclear materials, I propose that we start limiting our nuclear stockpiles in order to better-protect our countries. Let's see what everyone's limitations will be, before I make my own."

"Greetings," General Ping said as he entered, earning the attention of the entirety of the room. "Forgive me for the intrusion, but I will be participating on Premier Wu's behalf. He is, as of the moment, preoccupied back in Beijing." Two whole minutes of silence permeated the air as the old general took his seat.

"It's a pleasure to have the presence of the Chinese." Edmund stated before spinning his chair round to face Dmitry.
"Well, I'm very sure that in a perfect world, that limitation would be zero. It is a desire of mine, however it is sadly one that I cannot impose on the country I was elected to govern." He started before leaning forward and clasping his hands together in preparation of finishing. "Unless the nations of the world were to submit to such a limitation and all developments on biological, nuclear or any other variety of weapon, examples being the ECA's Solaris Relays offensive capabilities and the American Particle Cannon was to be scrapped to."
Edmund leaned back in his seat with a grave expression.
"I'm very sure that you, Dmitry, and China can understand that we, less blessed nations, would be without our only protection against weapons that can easily fill the niche that nuclear missiles did. I am aware that the likelihood of war between us, the great, nuclear powers of our time, is low. However, the future is an uncertain subject and there is no guarantee that we will be able to maintain this peace, fragile as it is."
He then stood up and began pacing round the conference table slowly.
"We're all here for our own interests. We were all elected or appointed to represent our own nations. Naturally, the goal of total nuclear disarmament is attractive is everyone in this room. However, what's stopping us from developing other weapons that will destroy us all. Okay, so we get rid of nuclear weapons. Why don't we all use something similar to the Solaris Network? Maybe the Particle Cannon? Maybe one of us would go as far as to reintroduce gas or follow in the footsteps of The GLA and bring out specially engineered diseases."
Once Edmund returned to his seat, he slammed his hands down on the desk to punctuate his point.
"Our ancestors opened Pandoras Box. We may shut the lid on that of nuclear warfare here today, but there is nothing stopping us all from finding new weapons that will, if used, cause the destruction of not only what we hold dear, but that of every other human on this planet."
He then sat back down.
"As such, The United Kingdom is prepared to disarm. On the condition that no one else be permitted to utilise any other weapon system that could be used as a replacement in perpetuity."

"And what of nuclear power?" Zhang Ping asked. "What of the prospect of using it for peaceful purposes, such as conventional or military power? I follow the interests of the People's Republic when it comes to this, and although we would love to live in a nuclear-free world, having a nuclear presence keeps us all safe. Instead of a full reduction, I call for a 50% reduction by the year 2050." Dmitry then cleared his throat, ready to say his piece.  Gentlemen, there are many leaders in this room, but only one has shared a nuclear-free vision. He, I, stay with me, ask you with the goal of universal disarmament: nuclear zero. I was hoping to, how do you say, 'cajole' you all to follow the dream, no, the destiny of nuclear dissarmament." Dmitry then stood up, his expression deathly-serious, with Putin standing by his side, "Now I am demanding; each of you will clear out his nuclear closet immediately. Failure to participate will be considered an act of war!" |

Edmund rubbed his temple while looking at Dmitry.
"Not good enough in my book, Mr. President." He retorted. "I will do nothing of the sort unless the conditions I've provided are met in full. I want more than nuclear zero. I want the whole concept of Mutually Assured Destruction in all current and future forms to be eliminated. If anyone in this room disagrees to them, then I shall be forced to say that we will be performing the act of war you refer to, Dmitry, by keeping our only protection from such a threat."
