Status[?]: defeated

Description[?]:
It is time that we put away our toys of mass destruction and move forward into the progressive age of diplomacy and negotiation. We must turn the page and welcome the new era of internationalism. We have a duty to protect the people of the world and the first act we can make to honour this duty is to take away our own power to obliterate Terra. The Socialist Party seeks support on this matter. |
