It is still hearsay to me, but serious if true.

Do you have an opinion on it?

[bouchonne]

[venenifer]

You're the head of diplomacy, are you not?

I should think you'd have the resources to educate yourself. ...and I hope you do. But I'll be frank with you, Ambassador, I don't have the patience for this.
