Why were Goans denied this? Were they (the Goans) the waging war on anybody? BTW Tuna apart, Did the East Timoreans not get to decide? ps: Please note that the ONLY reason I brought up this 1974 Treaty is because Mario made it out to be important to Goans. I contend that it is of zero use to Goans. Goa was already annexed in 1961 jc 2009/9/29 lyrawmn <lyra...@yahoo.com>: My reference was to the 1951 Peace in the Pacific Treaty to which Japan and the USA were signatories, following WWII. The distinction I was attempting was that nations wage war, surrender, sign peace treaties in good faith that benefits their nationals [who do not get to vote on this executive function.] My take was on the vanquished in wars. Yours would appear to be......tuna?
