Maybe this wouldn't be bad, but then again, we'll let someone other than the UN have a peace prize. Not to mention a lack of reasoning regarding the category.
Legalese also votes NO. |

A good idea, that won't work in real.
Therefore, Latao abstains
..but the basic idea should be kept alive in some more official form, such as economic help and privileges for peaceful countries. |
