In addition, the Kingdom of Manticore Reborn does not care for the wording of clause 77. Reaffirms the right of nations to monitor vessels using international territory in order to prevent illicit activity;
This clause must be strengthened to insure no Manticorian flagged vessel may be boarded within International waters as such will be considered an Act of War against the crown of Manticore.

In regards to the Envoy from Aptheros: The preamble is not considered actionable. It provides justification for the following clauses, but I do not see how it would be wise to try to use it as precedent for other actions.
But in any case: A nation's laws can only extend as far as the nations borders, unless there are existing extradition arrangements or similar. Otherwise there is a clear breach of sovereignty, and potentially even territorial integrity.

My concern however arises form the fact that since all the WA laws are equally applied to all members, larger nations with a more stringent view of drug use than their neighbors can use this as a justification for invasion, to "protect" their own citizens.
Envoy of the Kingdom of Aptheros
2. Demands that all nations, in taking action to suppress illegal drug trafficking, recognise the sovereignty of other nations; neither pressuring said nations to adopt changes in their recreational drugs policy, nor violating international borders in military or policing actions, covert or otherwise, without consent; nor using domestic recreational drugs policy as justification for any breach of human rights or international law;
