[WF IC] Speaker of the Assembly
#1

Ambassador Pierre entered the Assembly hall with a resolution in hand. He looked around, saw that as usual it was empty, and started to speak.

"My fellow ambassadors, in accordance with the Charter of this organization, I would like to offer the following resolution and move for its immediate adoption."
