UNCLOS witnessed a truly unforgettable moment when the Delegate of Saudi Arabia confidently announced that "No one else has proposed solutions." An impressive statement, if only the rest of the committee hadn't spent the previous session doing exactly that. Fortunately, the Delegate of DPRK was quick to intervene, pointing out that several delegations had already proposed and even begun implementing multiple solutions. It seems the only proposal missing from the room was a pa

If there was one thing the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) committee proved this session, it was staying on course is easier said than done. The delegate of Vietnam found themselves at the centre of controversy after being caught directly reading responses generated by Gemini. The incident resulted in the delegate being removed from the committee session. Elsewhere, tensions continued to rise as the delegate of the United Kingdom used the word “retard

If there was one thing the United States Senate (USS) agreed on during Session Five, it was that reform, cooperation and unity were urgently needed. Concrete solutions, however, remained noticeably absent. The session began on a tense note when Ricky Prashmore repeatedly told the Chair to “calm down.” The comments were deemed disrespectful during the formal session, prompting the dais to issue a timeout before proceedings could continue. Once debate resumed, committee membe

The committee of DISEC gathered to debate the risks of dual-use technology, but by the end of the session, one thing became painfully clear: the most dangerous technology in the room wasn't AI- it was delegates who forgot to proofread what AI wrote for them. From Syria to Jordan and Finland, the discussion bounced between international security and civilian gun ownership, with enough cross-talk to qualify as its own moderated caucus. Delegates called out to one another so oft

This weekend's DISEC session had less deliberation and more crossfire, courtesy of Nepal's delegate, who spent Lebanon's own speech literally lobbing toy bullets across the room at them, a bold new interpretation of "constructive engagement" that no delegate handbook has ever endorsed. Pakistan, meanwhile, treated the floor as more of a suggestion than a rule, cross-talking through much of the session regardless of who technically held it. Whether or not it was Pakistan's tur

The committee session of GABI was unusually quiet, with very few delegates actively participating in discussions. At certain moments, it almost felt as though everyone had collectively decided to observe in silence rather than debate. However, Delegate Janu Churchill made sure the room was not completely silent. The delegate brought some excitement to the session with memorable remarks such as, “the bloody French men,” One of the other delegates had used these exact words, “H

The conference was expected to be filled with serious debates and meaningful discussions. However, the session quickly became much more dramatic than diplomatic. The delegates of Vietnam and Malaysia were frequently seen talking throughout the committee, often appearing more interested in discussing other delegates than the actual agenda and when asked about they had mentioned about talking to make sure they were on the same page . At several points during the session, the de

During the press conference, many delegates appeared to have a different understanding of their task. Instead of focusing on answering questions and providing solutions, several delegates seemed much more interested in roasting the press team. Clearly, solving issues was optional, but making sarcastic remarks was apparently a top priority. The press also had the honour of repeating and rephrasing their questions multiple times. One would think that after hearing the same ques

The USS committee witnessed a rare shift in debating strategy this week, courtesy of the delegate representing Dan Osborn: forget policy, forget precedent, just repeat a personal grudge until it sounds like a position. "I don't like him," referring to Trump, was delivered not once, but multiple times, as though repetition might eventually pass for an argument. Other delegates spent the session building actual cases, citing evidence, and drafting resolutions. Dan Osborn's dele

The Disarmament and International Security Committee's session on missile proliferation in the Middle East delivered a masterclass in contradiction, courtesy of Iran's delegate. The pitch: Iran seeks only dignity, not conflict, and speaks on behalf of nations across the region. The follow-through: an agenda built almost entirely around supplying arms into the very conflicts Iran claims to be resisting, despite being widely identified as the party that triggered the current es

If confidence alone could solve an international crisis, the League of Nations delegate of Yugoslavia would have wrapped up the committee in under five minutes. Opening the GSL speech with absolute certainty, the delegate proudly announced that Yugoslavia possessed the "strongest strategy" to resolve the escalating oil crisis. The confidence was impressive. The details, however, were less convincing. The committee wasted no time putting the grand strategy to the test. A point

The GABI committee definitely had no shortage of dramatic speeches, but the Earl of Ronit might have stolen the spotlight. Instead of listening to another long debate about who should rule, he basically said, "Why are we still arguing?" and jumped straight to his point. He explained that England believes in the Divine Right of Kings, which means that God chooses the rightful ruler. Using that idea, he argued that Janu Churchill should immediately be given power. His biggest r

If speeches tested the delegates’ diplomacy, the press conference tested something far more difficult, their ability to answer questions. France defended its proposal to impose sanctions should Iran fail to improve its human rights record. When asked why sanctions would work now despite years of limited success, the delegate stood by the policy but offered little reassurance that this time would be different. Egypt also found itself under scrutiny after its position appeared

Formal committee sessions exist for a reason: composure, precision, control. FHB tested that theory today. During today’s formal committee session, the delegate of Marshall Wilhelmina didn’t call the situation “critical” or “unsustainable”. No, she decided, “cooked” was the more diplomatically appropriate term during formal committee session. An interesting choice of vocabulary for a formal setting. Then, channeling her inner quitter, she announced “we actually cannot do anyt

If confidence alone could win wars, Germany’s fate might have looked very different. Field Marshal Wilhelm Keitel Began by congratulating the newly appointed Führer before admitting that Germany was , in her own words, “highkey cooked.” It was a surprisingly candid assessment of the nation’s position. Yet moments later, the tone shifted from realism to optimism. When questioned about the clarity of the delegate’s speech, the response was simple: “It’s called being positive” O

During the press conference for the League of Nations, when the Delegate of Belgium was asked “During the crisis where everyone was discussing sanctions on Italy, what makes you think that human rights is way more important than what your committee repeatedly emphasizes?” To which the press got a masterclass in modern diplomacy of an answer- absolutely nothing. Faced with a prompt contrasting human rights against political pragmatism, the Delegate utilized silence due to a t

Just when delegates thought the succession crisis couldn't get any stranger, GABI decided to rewrite both English history and the laws of biology. The committee was left speechless when Janu Churchill, previously reported dead, walked back into the crisis with perhaps the boldest campaign slogan of the day: "I was brought back by God." According to Churchill, he had been executed for standing up to King James II, only to be resurrected and sent back with a divine mission- to

The FHB committee session was expected to be filled with serious debate and strategic discussions. Instead, it quickly turned into something that looked more like a comedy show. General Hemulth Welding was certainly determined to make his presence known. The delegate spent a large amount of time talking and even insulted another delegate by calling someone who replied through notes inappropriately. Unsurprisingly, this did not end well and resulted in the delegate being kicke

The UNHRC committee continued discussing humanitarian aid, and this session had a mix of serious debate with a few funny moments. The delegate of Kazakhstan shared their country's perspective on sanctions, explaining how they can affect nations in different ways. It added another side to the discussion and reminded everyone that sanctions aren't always as simple as they sound. The delegate of France suggested using airdrops to deliver humanitarian aid to Iran so that people c

Leadership may have changed, but confusion remained remarkably consistent. Following Adolf Hitler’s execution, General Walther Wench was appointed as Germany's new Führer with promises of a “new form of leadership”. On paper, it sounded like the beginning of a new chapter. Inside the bunker, however, the committee painted a very different picture. Ironically, the first challenge facing the new leadership was not rebuilding Germany, but finding people to speak. So a few delega
