There has been a new Mutual Protect Pact proposed by the nation of the Netherlands, with extremely ambiguous reasoning given. It doesn't take much to connect the dots and realize that it will be used to give Germany a free war. Germany has an open war with the Netherlands, they would attack the Netherlands, trigger the MPP with us, and then invade us to go their merry way towards whatever nation they are after.
However, the President has not approved this plan. Others in the government had no idea about this. And I certainly was taken by surprise this morning when I learned of the situation. Regardless of the merits of this and what side you are on, Austria is a sovereign nation, this move will have huge implications, and it deserves to be properly discussed, and not rushed into.
Therefore, I urge all congress members to vote no on the Netherlands MPP to allow for further discussion of the merits of participation in a landswap.
--- Update ---
There is now a proposal to send Russia 100 gold from our treasury. While it is true Russia sent us 100 gold for an MPP plan, abandoned the plan and then asked for it back, the plan is "back on" so to speak since the Netherlands proposed an MPP with us. That is using the 100 gold Russia sent, so there is therefore no need to (at this time) send Russia 100 more gold from our treasury... If the MPP with the Netherlands fails, thats when we can donate 100 gold back to Russia. Until that point, please vote no on the donation.

Good luck with keeping Austria independent 🙂. Is Austria still in Entente ( does Entente still exist? ).
(Sorry I was out of the loop for a loong time and I'll probably return to e-sleep soon enough.)
As much as i dislike the "OMFG WE ARE NEUTRAL" thing, im actually FOR joining an alliance, there was NO communication, and noone asked us on our oppinion.
Slowenian and german president simply said "we'll go through austria".
But thats just what we forbid Croatia, attacking Hungary.
Not allowing Croatia to pass caused us to drawn, in order to stay independent. Now PHX is demanding just the same shit.
Why should we vote YES?

Equal standards for all or there is no neutrality.
Isn't letting Croatia wipe out Hungary, then maybe even Slovenia, a risk for Austria, given what they did last time? Germany has MPPs active against Croatia, and can stop EDEN taking control of eastern Europe. When Burgenland goes back to Austria, Germany would not even need to move via Styria, so disruption would be minimal, and I'm sure Germany would pay for their RWs.
I thought Entente and Phoenix were working together, what with all the gold spent defending Mexico, liberating France, co-operation with Italy and the MPPs signed with Ukraine & Paraguay.

@ daniecox
Croatia has no more interests in Western Europe or Far East. We showed that with full scale attack on Hungary. We activated their MPP-s with doing it, no point to go anywhere now.
Austria can have a good sleep regarding Croatia. But is it so when we talk about Phoenix wanting to go through that country once more cos of their selfish interests?
*voted*
Re: daniecox,
We aren't in the Entente. The last MPP we signed with a nation in the Entente or Phoenix was with Italy, signed in exactly the same rushed manner, and this was a ploy to give Slovenia a free war with Austria. They used that war to take Lower Austria and Burgenland, handing Burgenland over to Hungary. If we could go back and redo it, I'm sure we'd vote no to that one.
It would be irresponsible to vote yes to this without using the proper areas of discussion, and weighing the consequences.
last time austria followed rangeley advices it was erased, oh wai-
Shut up Jazar, last time we listened to you, the night ended with the 5 of us sitting on a jail bench with you saying, "Wow, maybe that wasn't such a great idea."
Vote NO
*vote*
last time u listened to me austria central bank ended up with more gold then it ever had 🙂
voted NO
This is true bullshit. The war with Germany was to activate Russia's MPP in order to give Germany Berlin back. As you can see, the German president has retreated from the battlefield right after the attack had started in Eastern Netherlands.
This MPP would be used for the Dutch to fight, which they can't do now. So freaking bullshit you write here.
Jazantonio get less and less important everyday having to troll an eAustrian article. How is your baby boom bro?
"Shut up Jazar, last time we listened to you, the night ended with the 5 of us sitting on a jail bench with you saying, "Wow, maybe that wasn't such a great idea."
THAT should be a slogan for a political campaign. Classic! +1

neutrality doesnt exist in this game. it is boring and leads nowhere.
anyway, if you think this about the mpp with italy, I am pretty sure they will not defend you at all next time croatia or whoever else come to wipe you from the map.
you rangeley, just destroyed this country, since you came here.
voted!!
voted NO 😃
re: NGI Coop Austria,
Italy already did not help us last time, and did in fact refuse to sign an MPP with us when we asked. They signed one with us after we were wiped, which we were naturally grateful for, until we realized it was simply to give Slovenia the aforementioned free war.
I don't think its a bad thing to have some sort of discussion before rushing into an MPP, especially given our tricky situation, and the fact we were already exploited before.
lol
seriously do you really think croatia will give all this a rest?
even if this dutch mpp would result in germany invading austria, the pure reason for this invasion would be to get to croatia in order to help the hungarians to free their country. by the way hungary is the country that fought very hard against croatian occupation of austria. do you want to know why croatia is giving back your regions for this moment? to be protected from german mpps.
after they're done with hungary and they see an opportunity to get to asia, croatia will screw over austria every time they see fit.
gl in the future with ur new croatian friends. 🙂
