To increase regional economic integration and provide minorities in signatory countries with supra-national protection, a preparatory conference should be organised on a Middle-Eastern Confederation of States to examine proposals on economic, trade and investment union. Proposals to be presented for a convention on civil, human and minority rights in the Near East, with a supreme court/tribunal with enforcement powers.

"The existence of such institutions can go a long way towards removing the anxiety disadvantaged groups feel when confronted with the radical changes sweeping the area. The gradual build up of such supra-national institutions in the proposed confederation may also expand to cover an increased degree of economic integration and harmonisation. That may include a regional development body which would help establish and fund common energy and infrastructure policies." Ali A Allawi (ibid).
