The Vallish chief diplomat stood.
"I agree with the delegation from Severyane that these are problems of concern that warrant action from the nations assembled here, but I do have considerable concern with establishing an entity that may pass judgement on nations without being represented by those nations. As well, there is concern about an organization wearing too many hats. Why would a tribunal of sorts, a court even, have jurisdiction over something like piracy? This entity would investigate, but would it then also render judgement, and even prosecute? Who would enforce the ruling? I do believe we are headed in a positive direction here, but there are serious concerns we would need to rectify."
Edmund Lisle, of the WBU, spoke next. "Piracy is a significant matter and one we are dedicated to ending. A joint task force to manage international trade, at least insofar as our continent is concerned, could be something of great value, but how would it be managed? What the delegation from Severyane first described leads us to ask whether there should be developed an international court of sorts, to make rulings on international disputes. Certainly we can investigage, but who will make the ruling and who will execute the ruling to ensure it is enforced? There is much to discuss here."
