Details
Submitted by[?]: Pan-Sekowo Freedom Alliance
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2517
Description[?]:
| As Sekowo teter's on the brink of war, we must take action to ensure our army is as astrong as possible, both to ensure our saftey, and to act as a deterent to aggresive nations. Firstly, we beleive strongly in the power of WMD's to act as a deterent. If we have them,. and can use them if they are used on us by another nation first, no other nation will use WMD's on us. As it stands however, we are not safe, as we have no deterent for chemical or biological weapons, as we are unable to produce them. To protect Sekowo, we must rectify this. The same goes for our nuclear deterent. Dranland has had nuclear weapons in the past, and may be tempted to use them again. |
