[MISSILE SHIELD] - Opinions and positions

Delegate of Czech Republic,
Georgia would like to expose its extreme agreement with this new Missile Shield program performed by the US. European nations should also agree to this new program, because, it will give more security to our continent, and at the same time diminish the influence of aggressive expansionist world powers, such as Russia.

The missile shields though being developed now for decades have proved itself completely ineficient with a miss rate of over 96% in controled trials. Diverse other issues can be found when examining the process involved in such mechanism. Firstly, when a missile is launched from a country its speed greatly surpasses the ability of any surveillence system of detecting it. Therefore, the missile if destroyed would either be done over the victim of the attack, nearby countries, or ocean. In either case a missile carying a nuclear charge would be lost over an area greatly damaging and making impervious such area.
Furthermore, the control of the shield resides not on the country in which such equipment is installed but on the donor which in this case is the USA. But if any malfunction or inadvertent use causes any damage whatsoever the country trialed for its misuse is not the USA but the contry in which the shield resides.
likewise the quetions remains, will there really be any effective protection of the nation receiving such equipment if the nation keeps absolutely no control over the equipment?

How are we going to pass something that does not work?
Are there any improvements done so far? If so Germany would be glad to support.

Germany belisves that to integrate a missile shield to the NATO devfence system would be very good. It could protect us from potential threats like, Iran and North Korea.
By integrating the missile shield the delegations of Europe will be doing the best to the people.

Germany,what do you mean by North korea being a "potential threat"?Didnt it already tell the U.N that their nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only?

North Korea was quite dangerous before having nuclear weapons, this deleagtion already commited great quantities of war crimes when in control of South Korea. From public killings to assassinations of South Korean leaders, leading to the death of tens of thousands.
Imagine what North Korea might do now with nuclear weapons. It has already made a test without permission over Japanese territories, imagine what it might do next

It is really incredible how Russia is not expressing its position in this topic.

Whats the position of Germany in relationship to the Missile Shield topic? There seems to be a contradiction between delegates.

Germany certainly is in favor of the missile shield, but it still has it's doubts about this project that has a very low probability rate of functioning.

So our position is still not decided until the odds of protection are a little better

The Missile Shield is able to intercept seven out of ten striking missiles.

Ther clearly has been a confusion with the pieces of information stated above. All the info given should be revised first

"Before the Dec. 15 launch, it had been two years since a test. The program had gone five-for-eight in previous attempts to intercept a target."
MSNBC

The odds of the missile shield working are very high, and it looks like the information given by the delegate of South Africa was from an unrelyable source or from a long time ago.

"The Missile Shield is able to intercept seven out of ten striking missiles."

I would like to see a post with the source of this information on this forum please, and if it was an invented source or the delegate says he/she can not find it(which for me is the same reason) then i would like to ask please, that the delegate try to refrain from posting 'Lack-Of-Intelegant posts" and also, posting one simple sentence is not a way to make up posts, put some following information, to back up your info.

Do not be Mistakend, Germany is 100% in favor of the 'SHIELD', but if spending all this money for something that doesn't work, even if it were true that 7 out of 10 trials worked, then still 3 countries could be destroyed for every 10 missels, the only thing you could do is hope that you are not involved.

France would like to declare it's position about the missile shields placed in Czech Republic and Poland by the USA. Many say that they were implented as a way to attack Russia when needed. Actually, their purpose is to protect the Americas agaisnt any attack from potential threats such as Iran and North Korea. As the European Union has stated, France agrees that the threat does come from terrorism, and these shields should also be applied in southern Europe. Since these missile shields are built to protect the Americas and Europe from future attacks, France agrees with the implementation of these shields in Czech Republic and Poland.
Salut delegates

France, are you aware that out of all the trials done every trail has missed the target? the shields do not work, why implement someting invaled? In the future every country will be glad to implement this, as long as it works, but why waste money now, if in some years they will have to pay again, since the program now differs so much from what the program will be like in the future? Thank You France!

Czech Republic and Polando will spend absolutely no money in the Missile Shield, the United States of America will pay for all of it's cost.

The delegate of South Africa has an out dated information, the Missile Shield has an rate of hitting 7 out of 10 striking missiles . Each launcher contains 10 GBI Missiles, this means the more we have of the Missile Shield, the more we have of security to all European countries that agree to sign our resolution.

Russia is in agreement to seek ways to prevent the European continent to suffer foreign attacks. Russia believes that a missile shield will be effective if radars are placed in the Russian territory since it is a way to ensure that Russia will not be suitable for any ttacks.
Georgian delegate the MUN is a conference where natios will PEACEFULLY try to solve issues, but apperently Gergia cant do that and constantly keeps attacking Russia and generating more conflict.

Russia believes that security in Europe should be an issue treated with extreme careness, a missile shield may be effective as long as it does not impose any treaths to Russia. Russia feels that if radars are not placed in its territory, it will be vounerable for attacks and will not be a safe countries, it needs to be ensure it will be safe.
Georgian delegate he MUN is a conference where countries will PEACEFULLY try to solve issues. Apperently the georgian delegate does not know the meaning of that word since it keeps attacking being aggressive to Russia, generating more conflict.

Another interesting point is the Missile Shield will be perfected during the years. Delegate Jaap, the Missile Shield program can be changed without spending loads of money, but with just minor adjustments.

Delegate of Russia,
Czech Republic would like to emphasize that the Missile Shield Defense System, as the name says, is a mechanism created with the intention to develop the protection of European nations. It poses absolutely no threat to Russia, since it was not created to attack, much the opposite, to elaborate a defense from other rougue countries, as Russia seems to be. If there is a country that is a threat to not only Czech Republic but a handful of countries in the world, its Russia itself.

jde o upřímnou

Germany is positively in fabor of the missile shield resolution. It would only benefit the citizens of Europe because it would improve their protection.
For the delegates that think the information stated before was invented, please check the site:

Yes! The missile does fail a to work some times, but it mostly does what it was programied for.

Delegate Nick,

I appreciate your assistance to our issue, however you posted an out dated link. Those tests occured in 2005, when the missile shield was still in a stage of tests.

"Missile shield test fizzles out
Interceptor fails to launch, Pentagon says
updated 11:18 a.m. ET Feb. 14, 2005
WASHINGTON - A test of the national missile defense system failed Monday when an interceptor missile did not launch from its island base in the Pacific Ocean, the military said. It was the second failure in months for the experimental program."

Today, the missile shield has a much higher hit rate. Its about 7/10, my partner contains the link, he will be posting shortly in order to clarify doubts.

Jde o upřímnou

The Delegate of Czech Republic would like to thank the support from Germany ( in doubt ) , Georgia, Turkey , and France.
