The Inter-Oriental Treaty on Cooperation and Development (commonly known as the Saltstil Pact or the Saltstil Treaty, or by the Common-language acronym IOTCD) is an political, economic, and mutual defence treaty signed in Saltstil, Vultesia among several states in Olivacia, Hiraethia, and Meredonne. The treaty, legally binding on signatories, provides for enhanced cooperation in a number of different areas on the basis of intergovernmentalism and national sovereignty.

The treaty created four independent intergovernmental organisations: the Oriental Trade Alliance (OTA), the Eastern Benevolent Fund (EBF), the Oriental Defence Union (ODU), and the Eastern Energy Partnership (EEP). These organisations are separately administered bodies subordinate to the treaty but governed by their own charters. An annual Summit of the Orient, a meeting of participating states' heads of government, determines the overall direction of the pact.

Goals

  • Political, economic, cultural, and military cooperation among participating states.
  • Promote the resolution of disputes.
  • Encourage new ideas and solutions to regional and international problems.
  • Facilitate economic growth across the region.
  • Maintain and strengthen the sovereignty of participating states.

Saltstil System

The Saltstil System relates to the principles underpinning the Saltstil Pact and the relations between its member states. Rather than being an enforceable set of rules, the Saltstil System is a series of values that guide policy-making. Six principles, in particular, underpin the Saltstil System:[1]

  1. Non-intervention. Members of the Saltstil Pact agree not to intervene in the internal affairs of another state. This means that members do not, as a rule, provide any oversight or monitoring of elections, the rule of law, or other domestic matters. The role of the pact in this regard is limited to enforcing agreements made through the pact that member states are obliged to follow.
  2. Solidarity. The Saltstil Pact affirms its primary objective is protecting and promoting eastern interests, and as such emphasises solidarity and co-operation amongst its members and the wider eastern regions.
  3. Intergovernmentalism. Activities at a pact level are conducted through member states rather than through the pact's organs. The Saltstil Pact itself does not have the authority to initiate policies or agreements on its own initiative, but rather operates through its member states.
  4. Transparency. The organs of the Saltstil Pact are obligated to record and publish minutes from general meetings, and to make public all funding sources and where funding is directed. Specialised meetings on sensitive subjects (such as defence matters) are, however, kept away from public scrutiny.
  5. Unanimity. Most agreements are made through the process of unanimity, requiring all members to agree to a proposal for its provisions to be implemented. Only certain specified areas do not operate under this provision.
  6. Peace. The Saltstil Pact declares that it promotes peace and international cooperation, with any belligerent actions being made only in response to, rather than to preempt, aggression. The Saltstil Defence Pact is a fundamental part of this pillar.
