| Message | You keep saying that it is a violation of national sovereignty by you haven't shown any proof of it. You are simply making stuff up to justify your personal beliefs. Rich Reynolds Minister of Foreign Affairs United Republics of Lodamun |
| Date | 00:11:27, May 25, 2008 CET | From | Telamon National Party | To | Debating the Ratification of the Lodamun-Telamon Free Trade Agreement |
| Message | The treaty specifically states that it disregards any laws passed by our parliaments and that the treaty is binding upon our parliaments. Therefore it is an attack upon our national sovereignty. |

| Message | This treaty is a FREE trade agreement. Of course, no tariffs or duties may be imposed on our exports. Take in consideration that your won't be taxed either. It is a win-win situation. Have you ever heard of "withdrawal" from a treaty? The treaty is binding as long as it is ratified, that's what laws do or any other treaty. Now if you say, I don't like Lodamun, I am against Lodamun, I can see an explanation, other than that, your excuse has no point.

| Message | Considering the fact that the Islamic Nationalist Faction will not vote for this treaty, I will ask for the immediate withdrawal from this treaty. I don't want to hear any excuses as to why there is not good relationship between Telamon and Lodamun, you caused it. I thank all parties who voted yes but it is clear that your country doesn't want a treaty with Lodamun. I will not order my ambassador to leave Telamon nor will I kick your ambassador out but let's make this clear, we currently do not hold a "good friendship." That being said, good luck. Rich Reynolds Minister of Foreign Affairs United Republics of Lodamun |
