| Message | If the plurality of Sekowans believe that this is an important step to take, then we will support this bill. We are unwilling to completely remove the intelligence agency, as this would leave Sekowo vulnerable to other countries' intelligence agencies in kind. However, we cannot ignore the will of the people, and so we will support measures to reduce the military capability of the intelligence agency. |
