| Like Starblaydia said, this is a no-brainer, and nations that have nukes should already be doing these things as a matter of policy. |

| Who knows? Maybe all the planets lined up or something. The delegate votes yes as per regional opinion. |

| Perhaps. I just basically don't agree with most of the UN proposals, so I must therefore vote against most of them. |
