| Message | We share these concerns, which is why we support keeping their production and usage banned, but research on its own can't harm the environment. We added a clause stating that research into GMOs performed in Kazulia cannot be used by any party in production of GM-crops in any nation. Overall, this area is something that is still under much debate, and we don't see why we shouldn't allow increasing insight into these matters in Kazulia. |

| Message | While we understand your party's position we must still vote no due to the risk of GM crops accidentally contaminating and posing a threat to existing non-GM crops and plant life. |
