Details
Submitted by[?]: Freedom of Religion Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes the withdrawal from a treaty. It will require half of the legislature to vote in favor[?]. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 2317
Description[?]:
| Although it claims to be a matter of 'neutrality', the "Keymon Neutrality Agreement" actually limits our law in other ways. Close examination of the alleged 'neutrality' agreement reveals that this so-called 'neutrality' document actually limits our ability to decide our own defence policies - since it expressly outlaws any form of containment, construction or use of all weapons of mass destruction. This is not 'neutral', this is insanity - we have bound our selves to unilateral disarmament, and removed any possible benefit we might have gained from a nuclear or chemical deterrent. |
Proposals
Article 1
Withdraw from the Keymon Neutrality Agreement.

| Message | OOC: Looking back over Keymon history, there is a chapter of 'fascist expansion' driven by a nazi-like faction in Likatonia, that threatened our own sovereignty, and also the freedoms of a number of our local allies. That kind of expansionism is just the kind of reason we should not be limited in our defence choices. |
