| Message | The Freedom Party should understand that Terra needs our help. Pontesi had always taken step to ensure that capitalist doesn't result in the poor being push into the street, but sadly this isn't follow in many countries and we have always taken an initiative to help those peoples. Only when Terra know cooperation and equivalent then we could have peace, the Freedom Party should try to understand that first before calling this internationalism. |
