President Constantine takes the stand.
We must agree with with out Trill allies in this matter. None of the Trill, Bajorans, or the Federation wished for war, but niether would we stand by and see those we consider friends conquored or bullied.
I do not believe there will be a lasting peace until the Cardassians make reparations at the very least to the damage done to the Trill homeworld. The Cardassians have stripped the homeworld bare, and I believe redressing this must be addressed.
The Federation will adhere to the truce until we have discussed the matter with our allies. In this time I invite the Carassians to send a representative to discuss the matters of a possible peace.
The President takes his seat.
