Throughout the ages the Asian region has been atone to many times of instability i look back to the Cold War. When countries were split on the lines of Communism or Anti-Communism. During that time many brutal acts were committed in the Asian Region of the world. More recently the region has seen threats from Nations making nuclear warheads. As well as Nations taking land from established borders. Borders which have been ratified by the United Nations. As well as in the region the japanese prime minister wants to abolish Japan’s SDF ( Self defense force ) so japanese soldiers will be able to help the United nations in Future conflicts all across the world. Another thing causing a bit of Instability in the region. Is sense the end of the Cold war in the early 1990s which saw the collapse of the USSR ( Union of Soviet Socialist Republics) commonly referred to as the Soviet union. Left a power vacuum in asia as well as the entire world. Countries like the Russian Federation, The People's republic of China , as well as the DPRK ( Democratic People's Republic of Korea ). Are trying to fill this vacuum.
The Three most important pressing issues that are concerning the Nation of Tajikistan are as follows. Number one does the United Nations ATT ( Arms Trade Treaty ) hurt smaller nations while larger arms companies in large countries can pretty much sell wherever they want ? The second issue concerning Tajikistan is . How can the United nation stop and prohibit the Political and military expansion by larger nation into smaller nations ?The third pressing matter is . How can countries with lower level military equipment defend themselves without putting forth UN troops into the countries ? Some solutions to the issues the Nation Tajikistan would like to put forth to be put in a possible resolution. is as follows for issue number one losing restrictions on smaller nations buying the conventional weapons which stated in the UN's Arms trade treaty stated in article two are as follows (a) Battle tanks (b) Armoured combat vehicles; (c) Large-calibre artillery systems; (d) Combat aircraft; (e) Attack helicopters; (f) Warships; (g) Missiles and missile launchers; and (h) Small arms and light weapons.
The nations of Tajikistan would like to see an easier process in buying arms sense the nation of Tajikistan is in need of new military equipment. Even though our army is doing a great job we would like to support them by arming them with the best weapons money can buy. so the Army of Tajikistan can defend its own border with the best weapons we can buy. As well we would like an easy on article 8 of the ATT which makes it harder for a state party to import armaments. This regulations saying that a state party cannot important any conventional arms Tajikistan would like to decrease the amount of regulations making it easier to buy armaments. Final thought if the United Nations lets large nations sell weapons more freely than why is the a Arms Treaty at all. On the second issue that was addressed Tajikistan would like the UN to watch the expansion of Larger nation such as China's expansion into the South China Sea or the Russian expansion into the Crimean regions in Ukraine an idea is having Inspectors with peacekeeper in this nations to make sure the conflicts end protecting a country's borders set by the United Nations . The Nation of Tajikistan would like national border to be protected. On the third issue Takistan would like the United nations to send military advisers from nations to teach the men and generals. Things like tactics, Use of modern weapons, make sure training of soldiers is up to date. As well as other military needs of the country the adviser is in.
In conclusion the nation of Tajikistan would like to thank the United Nations as well as other nations of the world to consider the important issues impacting the nation of Tajikistan as we hope we can work together to solve this conflict.
