| Message | Articles 2 & 3 seem contradictory. Under the first policy, we wouldn't have any nuclear weapons with which to respond to another nations use. However, your view of the land mine issue is much better than the reform party's. |
| Date | 18:18:25, May 12, 2015 CET | From | Social Democrats | To | Debating the Land Mines |
| Message | Yes but if a warfare situation was to occur article 2 can be ammended and the technology will still be up to date. We do not intend to use nuclear weapons at any point but the point is taken. |
| Date | 18:28:16, May 12, 2015 CET | From | Telamonian Reform Party | To | Debating the Land Mines |
| Message | Our view on land mines remains that they should never be used. We would also suggest that nuclear weapons should never be used in warfare. However, given that this represents an improvement on the current position we support it. |
