Then all a nation has to do to land somewhere is say that they needed to land or the crew would die. Alternativly, they could purposely break something on the shuttle/ship, and claim that it needed emergency repairs. Either way this presents a massive loophole, which, if this were to be passed, would render the majority of the draft's purpose null, and void

Krioval does not oppose caution when launching and retrieving spacefaring vehicles, but this proposal has the potential to restrict the defense of our national holdings, as well as to conduct otherwise lawful military engagements against nations that would threaten our national holdings. We also find that "outer space" does not contain anything by definition, and therefore has no environment to protect.

OOC: The opposition is IC, not OOC. Krioval is a bit imperialistic and militaristic, so it stands to reason that anything challenging that on environmental grounds is going to cause problems. Don't expect too strong an opposition, though.

How serious exactly your Excellency ? Is space not vast enough to allow for the tiny deviations in route we are discussing?
Yours,

Mostly electrical problems. But trust me, big problems."

Ah yes, I humbly remember watching the footage of that iconic space mission as a youngling ...

With all due respect, Captain, do your spacecraft come equipped with either armor plating or force shields? Secondly, you are aware that there are plenty of small objects floating in the interstellar medium that are of other than industrial origin, yes? Hence the armor plating and force shields.
