| Message | We think not. If the other nations that surround us reserve the right to do this, then we likewise reserve the right. Whether we actually do so or not will depend ultimately on the behaviour of our neighbours. |

| Message | We have given our word that we will support the removal of chemical and biological weapons from our statute books. however we WILL NOT ban the right to develop purchase and stoere nuclear weapons. Untie the proposals and one will pass. Tie them together and we are forced by the stupidity of Equitista to vote against this. |

The nation reserves the right to develop, construct and store biological and chemical weapons. Alternatives: o The nation shall never develop, purchase or store biological or chemical weaponry. The policy with respect to nuclear weaponry. The nation reserves the right to develop, construct and store nuclear arms.

| Message | "We have given our word that we will support the removal of chemical and biological weapons from our statute books." Your decision on this matter concerned your belief that this was the will of the people? Because we have reason to believe that your conclusion on this is mistaken. http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewnews.php?newsid=4155 The Global Gazette -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 2089 Opinion Poll An opinion poll was held among the citizens of the Independent Republic of Lodamun. The subject of the opinion poll was The government's policy concerning biological and chemical weaponry. When asked what their opinions were, the following choices were made:Percentage Choice 51.04% The nation reserves the right to develop, construct and store biological and chemical weapons. 48.96% The nation shall never develop, purchase or store biological or chemical weaponry. As far a Baltusia, we would oppose any action that another nation tried to force on us. Lodamun is our jurisdiction, not theirs. Any attempt to act as an international bully will face the appropriate defensive response, if we have anything to say about it. We SHOULD reserve all military rights that Kalistan does, otherwise we cripple ourselves for no reason. |

| Message | There is the will of the people, and there is the honour of holding to your word. We indicated to the Green Advantage that if they made gains on the election we would support the banning of research on and possesion of CBWs. Our word, as a political group, has to be dependable and we do everything in our power to honour our words, unlike some parties who shall remain un-named in a bill of their creating. |
