| Message | The AAP find it hard to believe you voted against this bill, without even reading the content of the Treaty. The Treaty explicitly states that signing nations agree to ONE of the following: Prisoners of war are immediately returned to their own government. OR Prisoners of war must be treated well, according to internationally-accepted standards. We already accept the second clause as Likatonian policy. |

| Message | After this bill passes, might I recommend signing the First laloquon Convention? http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewtreaty.php?treatyid=53 is where it is found. This treaty "fleshes out" the treaty you are passing, by putting how POW's are to be treated. |
