Ensuring+integrity,+independence+and+authority+of+legal+systems

__Policy Statement__ Iraq's history is filled with death, sadness, and blood. The reason for this history is mainly due to the lack of trust between the people and the government, since the people believed that there was no integrity or proper authority in the government. Iraq believes that the relationship between the ruler and the people, as well as the relationships between the government officers and the people should all be good relationships, built on a great deal of trust and respect between the people and the members of the government. To solve this issue, and to try to completely get rid of any doubts that the people have towards the legal system, the government should not only work on major problems, but assist civilians with problems which they encounter throughout there lives. The government should participate in efforts to help the people, whether financially or morally. Also, the government should make sure that the people who need help the most are helped. Doing this will truly help to eliminate the issue of lack of trust for the government by the people. By creating organizations to help citizens, the government will create bonds of trust between the people and their government. Furthermore, these bonds will encourage greater participation in government by the people, thereby ensuring noncorrupt government and legal systems. The delegate believes that Iraq’s past is a perfect demonstration of how the citizens of a country behave when there is lack of trust with the government, since its people were easily lead into many different kinds of conflicts within the country, leading to the bigger issues of a catastrophic civil war. The lack of governmental assistance for the people, and of institutions through which they could be helped, led to chaos and instability in the country, and in the government. By ensuring integrity, independence and authority of legal systems, countries will succeed majorly, and this will lead to increased peace and tranquility within countries.
