Certainly it would be so if we were a continuing government. But that is not the case. We are a clean slate, disconnected from the past. It is useful to learn of our history, but I do not see any benefits on taking a stance as of now. We, as the Twelfth Mandate, a regime with no connections to the past, have no concrete relations to any side as of now, and if we take a stance as of this time, we will only incur the wrath of the NPO (which is very good at infiltration, I hear!) and not much else. Statements must have a practical reason. If we are just to condemn with no practicality, what use is there for it? Let us have friends first to back.
From what I know, this affair was not sanctioned officially (but Aleisyr certainly knew in April 2018 and never told a single word!), but it is still a horrific act by top officials in the NPO, yes. I am enraged at the Pacific for this act of aggression and negligence against Osiris. But feelings should not determine official policy. Neutrality is best, and so is disavowing any further relations with the NPO. We should not have friendly connections to this serial, lying aggressor who is incapable and unwilling to control its officials. But we should not be caught in this mess either with no practical reason.
