Unless there was definite proof that Iran was involved, I don’t think it makes sense to sanction them.

We're you meaning to strike through the bit about travel to the Gaza Strip? That was struck through in your amendment but no explanation why. Not sure if that was an error or intentional.

The government shouldn’t ban people from traveling.

[Vice President Christian Man]

If that's the case, objecting to the amendment.

There's no valid reason to allow Atlasians to put themselves in harm's way, especially when there's a credible risk to Atlasian citizens who enter.

What if they’re going on behalf of a religious or non-government charitable organization?

[Vice President Christian Man]

Nay
