It is clear that the Soviet Union must reassess its foreign policy towards certain nations in addition to voting no.

Should we interpret your words as a veiled threat, Mr. Ambassador? This language is unbecoming of an international body tasked with promoting world peace and harmony.

The German Ambassador agrees, and also questions why the Soviet Union would oppose an investigation. If there was no famine, as they claim, it would be an opportunity to prove the detractors of the Soviet system wrong on the international stage.

A body that claims to be of world peace while simultaneously failing to prevent the needless escalation that is the current Italian blockade is approaching the point of uselessness. The nation of France would surely agree with such hypocrisy.

Mr. Ambassador, my government supports a quick and amicable settlement to the current conflict in Hungary. We would gladly support a resolution that establishes a committee to that effect.

This is why this body does not foster international cooperation. It is merely a tool for the nations of Italy, Germany and Japan to exert their control on the world.

I wonder if Japan would consent to a full investigation of the atrocities they have committed in Korea.

France votes no on the German motion.

[Lumine]

Presented by the Argentinian government, with support from a number of South American states, preemptive acceptance by Bolivia, and disagreement from Paraguay:

A MOTION
To the League of Nations

The League of Nations resolves

To recommend an immediate ceasefire between Paraguay and Bolivia in regards to the Chaco War.

To recommend the attendance of Paraguay and Bolivia to a peace conference, in order to reach a settlement.

That an immediate arms embargo be established on both belligerents, only to be lifted for each belligerent at a time in which the ceasefire condition is met.

[KaiserDave]

The Bolshevists will destroy civilization if we let them. They are already trying to destroy this temple of diplomacy.

[GoTfan]

To hear the Italian government speak of diplomacy given recent events is a level of hypocrisy that not even the Tsar reached.

[Devout Centrist]

This is why this body does not foster international cooperation. It is merely a tool for the nations of Italy, Germany and Japan to exert their control on the world.

An expected response from the Soviet representative, with all the recrimination and acrimony one may anticipate. Such a reaction to offers of international cooperation is unsurprising, if disheartening.
