Bill: Arms Deterrence
Details
Submitted by[?]: Konservative Partei
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: May 3320
Description[?]:
| While we believe that it is clearly in this country's best interests to avoid conflict let alone the use of non-conventional weaponry - and we will work as hard as possible to prevent conflict situations from emerging - it is highly irresponsible to rule out nuclear, chemical and biological options completely. A strong deterrence policy ought to lie at the heart of our national defence. - Fleur van Coevorden, minister for defence (KP). |
