| Date | 09:42:23, July 06, 2019 CET | From | Sozial-Liberale Liste | To | Debating the Diplomat Amnesty Act of 4601 |
| Message | We disagree, because the law violates international law, and the current law is a messure to protect foreign diplomats in times of corrupt dictatorships. |
| Date | 19:44:00, July 06, 2019 CET | From | Die Mitte | To | Debating the Diplomat Amnesty Act of 4601 |
| Message | Can the SLL point to the relevant portion of international law that prohibits diplomats from civil suits? Because we find this amendment to be generally innocuous, but want to maintain the utmost trust of the international community. |
