Article II

Operations

Section I

All UPEO humanitarian operations must have a primary backer inside the UPEO. The primary backer shall provide most of the supplies for the humanitarian mission. States may only apply as secondary backers if the primary backer isn't supplying everything needed by the mission

Section II

All combat missions must have a clearly stated goal before troops are deployed. If it is a peacekeeping operation, the UPEO must have consent of the host nation before the mission begins. If the UPEO declares a combat mission a police action, consent of the host government is not needed (OOC: Although we may not interfere with closed/semi-closed wars). Observation missions may only be carried out in conjunction with a peacekeeping or humanitarian mission.


Article III

Amending

Amending of this charter may be done at any time, with a simple majority of the General Council, as well as approval of the President of the Security Council.


Missions

Currently, there have been no UPEO peacekeeping/humanitarian missions. Nor have there been any police actions. However, there is a strong possibility of a Security Council approval of UPEO-MNO (UPEO-Mission in North Osea); as well as UPEO-ME (UPEO-Middle East)
