BACKGROUND GUIDE
World War 3

POTUS Vice President
Letter from the Executive Board
Greetings delegates,

Though we shall try our level best to give you all a very comprehensive guide, however,
the responsibility of reading between the lines and joining the dots lies on you. We as
moderators can just bring information on the table; it’s on you how you wish to pursue
that information as.

So, in this guide, we shall bring in a wide range of information to your notice, ranging
from official statements to scholarly views however the responsibility of prioritizing
what to focus on and not is totally yours. When we talk of prioritizing information,
what we mean is not to prioritize information according to what you think should be
focused, but prioritizing information according to what your country thinks should be
focused.

Before coming for the conference, it is very important to break the larger agenda into
smaller subtopics and ask questions to yourself about the agenda. It is also crucial to
enhance your leadership skills and lobbying capacity since we would give equal
importance to overall participation in committee.

We would take this opportunity to elaborate upon the criteria for judgment which we
will follow in the committee:

1. Research & Analysis 5. Lobbying

2. Impact 6. Points and Yields

3. Guidance of debate 7. Documentation

4. Adherence to foreign policy 8. Verbatim

We shall, to the best of our abilities, ensure that a fair simulation is conducted and there
is ample scope for fruitful and meaningful discussion which paves the way for a
nuanced learning experience.

Regards,

Shikhar Tripathi Athala Salcedo

Current Scenario

★ Following this, an executive order was passed, at 21:30 pm to cancel all the H1-B

USA. Majorly affected cities include- New York City, Los Angeles, Las Vegas,
Chicago, Washington DC.

★ The International Community has responded in the following manner:

step he has taken might look a little harsh but is the need of the hour,
considering the recent advances shown by China.”

‣ Justin Trudeau, PM of Canada: “The USA should take careful steps. No erratic
decision should be taken in a fit of anger.”

‣ Boris Johnson, PM of UK: “China needs to be stopped. It has been doing what
it feels like, for a bit too long. The UK stands with the USA.”

‣ Xi Jinping, President of PRC: “I warn USA! If even a single citizen of Chinese

origin is misbehaved with in the USA, PRC will be there to retaliate.”
