The only way this would happen is if TNI invites it on themselves by attacking the sovereignty of TRR. Like we've said, treaty or no, it would wholly unacceptable for TNI to directly attack another GCR.
Protecting GCR sovereignty is certainly a commitment we can keep. If TNI feels different, that is their deal. TSP will remain committed to GCR sovereignty.
Our region recognises the concept of war in our legal system. We expect others to recognize our right to wage war, and as such we must too recognize the right of others to do so. We can disapprove of a hypothetical TNI invasion of TRR and we have no legal duty to assist them - which we should not - but they have the undeniable sovereign right to wage war, and as our ally they have a right to expect us to not ally with their enemies.
