Brunanter mayor Karen House slams the ICNA

Karen House

Koningstad - Karen House critised the ICNA for its previous article about IWO intergration. A statement from Karen House reads:

"I have recently read an article published on the IWO Central News Agency that led me to consider if this is really proper reporting, or just a quickly put together project to make it seem as if the IWO does something. It it titled <<Why you should reconsider voting leave in the IWO>> and attempts to convince the reader on remaining with the IWO.

There a number of factual errors in reading it, to say the least. It starts be mentioning Harvia, which is not a member of the IWO. <<The IWO with its SEDEF protection force>>; SEDEF is independent of the IWO.

<<An IWO passport can get you to nearly every continent without a visa>>: IWO passports do not exist and have been opposed by politicians in member states, and there is not automatic visa-free travel that I am aware of, not in Brunant at least.

<<The IWO has fantastic initatives>>: yes, and what have any of those ever achieved aside from minimal discussion.

All this is further proof the IWO cannot be counted on to do anything properly, if at all. Brunant must definitely leave an organization that has achieved nothing and has not brought forth much intgration. And to the EU, don't think you're being overlooked"

The ICNA has not responded but IWBG CEO has responded, check out "A message from the CEO".
