The other nation Demands Our Subservience

The infernal snakes in the other nation have sent us a unilateral demand to disarm and permit the presence of their soldiers in our territory so that they can 'guarantee the safety and rights of our workers.' The motive behind these ridiculous demands is clear: the other nation seeks to assert complete control over our affairs and sovereignty. We are not some middling power of no import in world affairs, we are our nation! We cannot allow ourselves to be pushed around like this by a blatently malevolent power that see us as nothing but a victim in waiting. We must look outwards for allies; surely there must be at least one country that will stand with us against their warmongering! Then again, is the possible cost in our lives truly worth the risk?
