I agree.

Look at the queue. We're going to be here for 10+ days if this reaches quorum. Plenty of time to judge.

Bormiar, I've passed 2 SCRs before. Same as you. I know how it works.

While it is great and all what Rain did, it is all completely reversible. Maybe a mention in a dispatch or a headline in a newspaper? Yes. A full security council commendation? No.
I disagree. We should reward what "Rain"(Riakou) did. There's an argument to be made that, by not Commending those that have stopped coups and evil regions, we're not providing the kind of positive reinforcement that's necessary to enact this sort of change more often.
A lot of people are inherently selfish. For example, picture a member of a couping party in, say, TSP, deciding that they'd rather have a Commendation to their name than keep running with the people they're running with, and they end up defeating a coup that previously had zero chance of failing. Commendations like these will be looked upon as less "true" Commendations, sure, but they'll serve a practical purpose and help regional security.
Why not start that here, with a native delegate that turned against a widely unpopular UCR's fascist-friendly regime and caused mass celebration across NSGP?
