| Message | Mr. Speaker, Those who are in favor of these horrid weapons should prove that they are necessary. When was the last war? How was it started? Could we have avoided it? Can we simply be peaceful traders with other nations and not be aggresive with our policies? Yield. |

| Message | As Freedom Party is ignorance of our nation history and policy, we would gladly supply them with insight detail into our last conflict. The last war is invasion of Pontesi by the so call Global Peacekeeping Organization using Nuclear attack against our nation. We have in no way make any aggressive policy to the organization and the action was deemed as a war-crime and the leader of the GPO were killed by Pontesian Forces. Now, let me ask you whether what kind of policy is necessary to stop a warmongering psychotic leader from attacking other nation? |

| Message | HA!! no agressive policies, eh? That's a farce. You have this country ARMED TO THE TEETH! It's an affront to ALL peace-loving nations. |

| Message | Those who don't understand war can never achieved peace. It had never been our policy to actively threaten other nation, but to maintain an ability to defense the nation from other aggression, the policy that have proved to be vital to our achievement in repelling the GPO invasion and to ensure the continue existence of our nation. The Freedom Party must understand the nation needs to defense itself, it is a horror to our nation to consider demilitarized our nation to our current state of weakness when our neighbor continue to actively seeks WMD and improve their military. Arming the nation to defense itself is the only policy for our nation when there is no collective defense that can provided peace to Terra. Your current action is an affront to former heroes of Pontesi, to those who have died defending our nation and those who sacrificed their life so that the Pontesian Dynastic Empire remains until now. |

| Message | Indeed, the ONCP was a founding father of this Pontesian relam and throughout our history, we have never engaged in combat with another nation over anything other than issues related to Pontesian territorial integrity. The mines are for the defence of this nation and are not intended nor indeed deployable as an offensive weapon. |
