Message | "The Ministry of Defence does not support this Act. We have worked hard alongside the Foreign Office and, when available, the Ministry of Peace to ensure that our ban on chemical and biological weaponary is respected Terra-wide. We are a nation respected on the International stage for our ban of such equipment. Furthermore, the MoD does not support a private Military. The NUR remains adament that the State should retain a monopoly of legitimate violence via fully Nationalised military system. Additionally, we remain firm that Solentia's Armed Forces should be open and tolerant; available to all of our willing citizens who wish to serve." Joachim Buemi, Secretary of State for Defence |

Message | We should use biological and nuclear weapons, but only if attacked first. Other nations will see that we aren't just some nation that's too affraid to fight. But homosexuals should be allowed to fight in military. How about homosexuals and hetrosexuals are seperated while in the military. |
