Article I: Preamble The alliances of Union of Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) and The Russian Empire (TRE) wish to upgrade their current NAP treaty in the interest of better relatiosn and to contribute actively to the growth of each other, and, therefore declare a PIAT. The purpose of this treaty is for mutual prosperity between both of the signatories. Article II: Peace No attack against either signatory by the other shall be condoned, and, if it is, this treaty is therefore null and void. Attacks include, but are not limited to, declarations of war, in-game espionage, forums espionage, impersonation of leaders on IRC, and aiding the enemies of the other signatory. Furthermore, attacks between the signatories is forbidden under this treaty. Attacks include the actions listed former to this clause but are not limited to these. Any attack of any kind must be resolved peacefully through proper diplomatic channels, and if this proves impossible the treaty is null and void. Article III: Intelligence If one signatory gains any compromising information, which include, but are not limited to, PMs in-game about attacks on the other signatory; a message in the Cybernations forum, IRC, or an embassy in either alliance concerning an attack in any way, then they must provide the information to the other signatory by any means possible. Failing to do this will render this treaty null and void. Article IV: Aid If one signatory asks the other for any monetary aid, and it is found to be not too much of a burden or will endanger them, then they shall provide it to them. It is recommended that after alliance-wide warfare aid requests should be granted to help rebuild the nations affected. Furthermore, to reduce the risk of both alliances during alliance wide warfare, aid should be temporarily cancelled to prevent further attacks on the signatories. Article V: Trade Both signatories must agree to openly trade with one another for the betterment of the economies of both alliances. To do this both signatories shall be required to allow at least the Minister of Finance or equivalent to view each other's public trade forum as well as being in regular contact over IRC or email. Article VI: Cancellation If one signatory feels that this treaty is no longer beneficial, then they shall notify the other through private channels, and, after a 24 hour grace period in which the treaty is still valid, then this treaty is considered null and void.
