| Message | Senators, We believe it is very irresponsible to welcome all refugees, as that would increase the risk of disrupting our cultural habits, but it would also increase xenophobic sentiments in the native population against the refugees who come here and especially against those who refuses to reject their own cultures and traditions in favor of the Valruzian culture. With this and all other articles except article 1, we oppose. Oliwia Szylling Vice Chairwoman of Safety and Tradition |
