forward

Both parties agree to designate neutral areas called Buffer Zones that are monitored by the Peacekeepers' Committee. These Buffer Zones will be set up to provide either party with a safe haven for peace talks, intermingling, relevant information sharing, meetings, etc. Such Buffer Zones can be established in a church, office, home, recreation center, building, or any kind of structure or territory, including a block or entire community. All members from either party agree never to violate the sanctity of the Buffer Zones, which are created to assist in peaceful negotiations.
