Poland must agree that Sealand is nothing more than a outcropping in the ocean. Poland does not recognize Sealand's sovereignty.

Canada recommends strict sanctions against the United Kingdom unless the United Kingdom can control all territories within her borders, which includes Sealand. Furthermore, if Sealand does not cooperate with the will of the United Nations Security Council, the General Assembly or the government of the UK, Canada will be forced to raise a motion to place a blockade around Sealand.

Easy there Canada, no need to get huffy over Sealand, it's not like they did anything to you.
Voting on Resolution 1 is still in session. If Sealand is officially voted as a recognized member, the United Kingdom will honor the decision and no longer assume control over it. Until that point, however, any actions taken against Sealand, benign or belligerent, will be considered as also directed towards the United Kingdom.
With that being said, the United Kingdom votes NAY on Resolution 1.

however, being of largely British stock and heritage, all Sealanders wish to extend their thanks to the United Kingdom for protecting, in some small way, the freedoms due to all of humanity

for reference's sake - even if it is from wiki
Quote : | "The Principality of Sealand is a micronation located on HM Fort Roughs, a former Maunsell Sea Fort located in the North Sea 10 km (six miles) off the coast of Suffolk, England, in what is claimed as territorial waters using a twelve-nautical-mile radius.
Since 1967, the installation has been occupied by associates and family of Paddy Roy Bates, a former radio broadcaster and former British Army Major, who claims it is a sovereign and independent state. [1] Critics, as well as court rulings in the United States and in Germany, have claimed that Roughs Tower has always remained the property of the United Kingdom, a view that is disputed by the Bates family. The population of the facility rarely exceeds ten, and its habitable area is 550 m² (5920 sq ft)." |

The floor retroactively recognizes and validates the votes of the following representatives and states:
terpball from Jamaica, Doc Rambo IV from the Republic of Colombia, JTMONEYNCSU from the Republic of Macedonia, spro from the the Hellenic Republic (aka Greece), datman from the French Republic, Aficionado from the Republic of Poland, [user]Kazakhstan[/user] from Kazakhstan, The Dude from the Republic of Hungary, fatcatt316 from the Republic of Peru, legatic from Spain, and ambrosia1231 from Republic of Iceland.
The body can not at this time recognize representatives from Puerto Rico or Sicily despite the fact they both exist as autonomous units.They still remain under the jurisdiction and with electoral rights in other nations and as such contribute to the sovereingty of other countries. Voting from the Sicilian contingent is stricken and will not be counted towards existing legislation.
A motion has been presented to delay the final vote determination of the sovereignty of Sealand. Djibouti recognizes the controversial nature of this discussion and seconds the motion. If another body thirds the motion, the resolution will be delayed until after the election of the Secretary General.

Poland suggests that if Sicily doesn't know how to establish sovereignty, it remain part of Italy for its own benefit.
Poland agrees with TWWUN 3 and suggests that there be a longer initial period before any amendments are passed to allow as many countries that want to participate the opportunity to do so.

Sicily hereby, in accordance with the rights of nature entitled to all men, declares independence from the nation of Italy. From this point forward, Sicily has the right to conduct commerce, levy war, establish alliances and defend its territory up to and including all airspace up to 65 miles above its territory and 12 nautical miles off shore in all directions. Furthermore Sicily has called up on representatives from each region to form a legislative body in the newly established national capital of Palermo. 7/9/2007 7:10:04 PM |

Quote : | "with regard to the accession of the virgin islands,
sweden would remind the united states that according to the montevideo convention (of which the US is a signatory) a soveriegn state should possess: a permanent population, a defined territory, a government, and the capacity to enter into relations with the other states. can the united states show that these pre-conditions have not been met, particularly that the virgin islands are restricted from establishing international relations?" |
The United States wishes to remind Sweden that the Montevideo convention does NOT apply to territories of other nations. For that matter, the government of the US Virgin Islands is part of the United States governmental system, and elects a delegate to Congress (who can participate in committee voting). This should establish the territory as part of the United States enough to not require a separate delegate. The same goes for Puerto Rico.
The United States of America votes "YAY" to TWWUN Resolution 3.
