To Ms. Nicodemus

Ms. Nicodemus, I am extremely offended and outraged by your accusations regarding my nation's, and my own, actions concerning the conflict in the Northern Territory. In no way are our actions promoting war. Your nation has openly stated that war is an option and a possibility. Clearly your nation is the aggressor in this confrontation. How then, I ask, is our nation a promoter of hostilities between sovereign states? The answer is we are not. By placing sanctions, such as embargoes, upon Mercia, the global community is curtailing your nation's ability to conduct wartime activities and is thereby enforcing peace. As I have mentioned time and time again, your nation must step down and come to peaceful negotiations with Istari. You are walking your nation on a thin line, be sure not to cross it, for if you do there will grave consequences.
