NMMUN 2011 Posting Guidelines


The NMMUN 2011 Blog is intended for the use of delegates to the 2011 New Mexico Model United Nations Conference. Following are some guidelines to follow.

All posts, additions, pages, files, or comments must be relevant to issues of the Model UN Conference, and they must be in language and intent appropriate for constructive discussion and debate of those issues. If members post inappropriate information or language, the Blog will have to be closed.

The primary purpose of the NMMUN 2011 Blog is to allow delegates to upload their position papers as a “Post” so that they can be read, shared, and discussed prior to the conference.

One student per delegation will be allowed to post its Position Statement, but all students may read the posts. If you wish to respond or comment on the blog and are unable to do so, ask your delegation’s designated person who is allowed to post to send the comment.

To post your nation’s Position Statement, simply past it into the text box as a “Post” on the Blog. The title should be “Your Country’s Name, Organization [General Assembly or Security Council], Position Statement” For example: “Guatemala, General Assembly, Position Statement”

The Federation of Russia (GA)

The Federation of Russia is pleased to be here among all you fellow delegates and the honored chairman. As a globally strong nation, we look forward to resolving the following topics.

The recent collapse of the Euro is of strong importance to us. Since we are so close to the European Union, we identify closely with this struggle. We wish for economic stability for all of Western Europe and also for our own country. Our own economy is currently in a less than ideal state, and the revival of the Euro would also be beneficial to our country as well. For these reasons, we find it necessary that all of us work to fix this problematic situation. The problem of the Euro has escalated to affect all nations and needs to be remedied. This issue is important to each of us and we should all work to create a peaceful agreement to help bail out the European Union.

As a co-sponsor of the Middle East peace process, post-revolutionary nation stabilization, especially in the Middle East, is of the upmost importance to the Russian Federation. The Russian Federation fully supports sending in peace keeping troops and United Nation advisors to unstable regions in the aftermath of revolutions. Moreover, Russia is willing to take on a greater role in this stabilization due to its strategic location and abundant resources.

The Russian Federation regards Private Military Contractors as legally established international firms offering services that involve the potential to exercise force in a systematic way and by military or paramilitary means, as well as the enhancement, the transfer, the facilitation, the deterrence, or the defusing of this potential, or the knowledge required to implement it, to clients. Russia suggests that Private Military Contractors become even less transparent than they are in the Status Quo. Nations should not be made to disclose any information about their partnerships with and usage of Private Military Firms.

Concerning the issue of terrorism, the federation of Russia feels strongly about creating a universal definition. We believe that terrorism is the unprovoked action against non-combative peoples performed by subnational groups. We would like to aid in the creation of supportive international groups and strong government communication to help combat these horrible attacks. Through government and economic support, countries can better deal with terrorism. Hence, we would support the foundation of an international relief community to help countries that suffer from terrorist attacks. Here we can achieve a supportive group to respond to the important issue of terrorism.

The Russian Federation is looking forward to conducting business with the United Nations as one of its key members. Russia is positive that it has much to offer in an effort to stabilize and advance the world. In the proverbial words of our fathers before us ‘Бережёного Бог бережёт’.
