Barry's mind raced as he contemplated the implications of Richard's proposal. He recalled the warnings from his Joint Chief of Staff about the likelihood of such scenarios arising in the post-war world. As he sat in the conference room, surrounded by advisors and Blackwatch officials, he grappled with how to navigate this delicate situation.
"So how will I play it out here?" Barry thought to himself, weighing his options carefully. He knew that any decision he made would have far-reaching consequences, not only for the affected regions but also for the global community.
Turning his attention back to Richard, Barry addressed him with a determined yet cautious tone. "Mr. Gonzales, while I understand the necessity for stability in these regions, I must ensure that any intervention aligns with the principles of sovereignty and self-determination."
