The Seed of Earth Federation

It was difficult to make progress during the next meeting.

As discussed on the first day, no one raised objections on rescuing the Golovins, but there was serious disagreement on the arrangements after the rescue of Svetovid. Discussions related to the arrangements after the salvage of the Svetovid were almost to the point of irreconcilability.

The debates were both in the placement of the "Golovins" and the technical assistance promised by the "Golovins"...

"I propose to share the technology that the Golovins are donating to us. Any member of the defense alliance has the right to share knowledge from the extraterrestrial civilization."

"I object. This is unfair to countries that contribute more. Unless all member states bear the same cost in rescuing the Svetovid, it's unacceptable to require equal sharing of extraterrestrial civilization technology."
