It has been brought to my attention that the proposal "Condemn the Communist Bloc" written by Kazakhstan 3 has reached quorum and is now in queue. This proposal is short and provides inadequate reason to condemn, as its reasons are subjective and cannot be confirmed, either from the perspective of the author of said proposal, from the perspective of a resident of the condemned region, or the perspective of a neutral nation that is soon going to vote for this proposal. This proposal also notably lacks the initial clause that ensures the proposal is written from the perspective of the WA, and only has three sentences (excluding the operative clause).

This proposal, as short as it is, has some glaring grammar and formatting errors that soil it even more. Most SC proposals list the commendable/condemnable/liberatable clauses in an easy-to-read manner, with an active verb (usually italicised) among the lines of "noting", "impressed", or "appalled" to begin the clause, and line breaks between clauses. This proposal does not have line breaks separating clauses, and the only verb that starts a clause is the word "Understand", which has to instead be "Understanding" for the grammar to be correct. Each clause is also only one sentence each, the bare minimum. Each clause in most SC resolutions is at least the same length as all of the non-operative clauses combined, which is disappointing, to say the least. The operative clause, the last clause in the proposal, is notably abnormal. Most SC resolutions have an operative clause that states, "Hereby commends/condemns/liberates @@NATION@@/@@REGION@@.", but "Condemn The Communist Bloc" has an operative clause that states, "Action The Security Council hereby condemns The Communist Bloc.", which has four unnecessary words (the first four). The operative clause also has a blatant grammar error as well. To fix this grammar error and not the formatting error, the operative clause would have to state, "Action: The Security Council hereby condemns the Communist Bloc."

To end this letter, the Durrnilian SC Office formally censures "Condemn the Communist Bloc", Kazakhstan 3, and the 82 delegates (at the time of this writing) that approved it and discourages WA nations from voting for the proposal.
