| Message | Lets start with the use of mines, while they can be proven eficient in the battle field, we are talking here right now about mines in national borders, and in that matter, its more easy for then to needlessly hurt some passing by civilian than some person presenting any kind of danger to national security. Then, we have chemical weapons, tjat you want to allow, the main problem here is, it doesnt matter how well prepared and created those virus are, they still can get out of hand, and i want to see who is gonna take care of then. About POW, we cannot see why we should return then to their own government, they have been captured, they shall be treated as stated by international laws, and this is enough, we cannot be so naive to just let then go like nothing happened. Andrade, João Minister of Defense |

| Message | We believe that an aggressive policy about store chemical and biological weapon as long as the use of land mines, we'll reach a respect for our beloved country, boost the nationalism and give more power to the Military. Rodrigo Spinella, Minister of Defence |
