This task-force will be jointly funded at a cost of 10 credits from each nation

a. The parties commit to future civilian cooperation to apprehend war criminals still evading arrest in France.

Commune of France

The position of the French government remains that General de Gaulle must end his Bonapartist adventurism and turn his sword into a plowshare. Nevertheless, the sanctity of the French people is such that intermediary steps must be taken, so that the nation is rebuilt without regards to politics and the future is in our hands alone, unbeholden to Washington or Moscow. We agree.

Vive la commune. Vive la France.

Commune of France

Firstly, the French masses extend our deepest thanks to the signatory parties for their collaboration in our successful efforts to rebuild the nation. Along these lines, we wish to propose that, with the aims of Article I being achieved, neither the Commune or the southern military occupation should feel compelled to oblige by the rest of the article, instead engaging in reconstruction efforts and bilateral talks as we see fit.

Secondly, while we are thankful that the Soviet Union has withdrawn the entirety of their forces and the United States has begun the same - and, we assume, will continue to uphold that article of the Accords - there remains one unit of the British Crown still engaged in the south of the nation. While we recognize this was not previously negotiated, undoubtedly due to some administrative error, we ask that they too begin the process of withdrawing. France and her allies have upheld our part of the bargain and then some. It would not do for foreigners, whether they represent Republican, Labour, or Communist governments to remain in the country, particularly when they are engaged in suppressing Frenchmen and women.

[Flamelord]

After consultation with our economic advisors, we concur with the assessment as stated. Further investment into the joint effort is no longer necessary, and we thank all those involved for their contributions to the rebuilding of France from the devastation of the World War.

While we reject the notion that British soldiers have in anyway engaged in repression of their French allies, we nonetheless understand the sentiment by which this issue is being approached, As it was a genuine oversight, the willingness of the regime in Paris to be conciliatory on this matter is appreciated, and we will contact the British government to discuss the situation and the details regarding the withdrawal of their forces.
