| Message | "Mr. Speaker, This bill would ensure the tyranny of the military industrial complex. Over not only my tenure as Statsminister, but also during the tenure of Jan Haling and Gustaf Westerwel, OA has meticulously ensured that individuals at the local level have control over their armed forces; now, the army of Lirona may be used to crush an uprising in Sevescia. This is an affront to democracy. In addition, the new government has certainly wild-eyed ideas about capitalism -- subsidies are a tool of corporate fascists, not of democratic pro-Liberty administrations!" - Ohla Ful Parliamentary Leader of OA |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The Armed Forces of Telamon (Krigsmakten) consist of the Army, Air Force, Navy, Amphibious Corps and Coast Guard, which is federal. The Republicans believe in a decentralized governance, however the Armed Forces has to be unified and centralized to be effective, both against internal and external threats. - Erik Beter Minister for Defence |
