Discussion
The nation of Italy disagrees to Article IV Section 2 of the Treaty of Marseille that requires Italy to allow free access to the Suez Canal for all the allies, for the Suez Canal is only valueable if one can charge fees for entering and exiting the Suez Canal, and considering that the Allies consist of the majority of the world's powers, the Suez Canal loses its value. We also do not feel comfortable enough with these terms for all the Allies, only France and Spain. We instead have a counter proposal of either minimal tariffs (5%-10%) with the Allied Nations for a maximum of 5 years and are willing to continue this proposal with France and Spain. Other than that, the nation of Italy supports the Treaty and agrees to the partition of the British colonies and we praise the creation of the Global Cooperation and we hope that the creation of it leads to a new era of peace and prosperity. -Vittorio Emanuele Orlando, diplomat of the Nation of Italy. (KawaiiKame)

= = France accepts Italy's offer, with 5% tariffs for all signees of this treaty, for unlimited years.

The nation of the Republic of China disagrees with Article III Section 3 and 4 that calls for a Chinese annexation of Indian lands and an independent state in South India. China, as the first republic in China, is a forerunner to the ideals of liberty and democracy; and thus, has set up democratic governments in India during the war. These states had been home ruled and had actively participated in International cooperation organizations, such as the East Asian Commonwealth. It would be tyrannical to force upon them the yoke of foreign oppression. We instead propose that all Indian territories beside Burma to be put under self determination under supervision of the Republic of China. Moreover, the states that had been established would not be dismantled and the self determination would only happen in the other regions of India.

We also disagree about Article III Section 6, which dictates that Singapore would become a Russian colony. The Chinese people had had a long history in the region and is one of the dominant population, and it would be unwise for them to come upon the rule of a culture vastly different to theirs. Thus, China proposes the establishment of a Republic, the Republic of Singapore, in the region. -Wellington Koo, diplomat of the Republic of China.
