    1. No ethnostate has a right to exist. (Blah blah blah, Nazi Germany, one’s rights end where others’ begin, you get the picture)
    2. No state has the “right to exist”. States don’t really have rights, countries come and go through war or other causes. A war, or subsequent annexation, is not stopped because of some “right” of the losing country to exist.

And with the way it’s worded and the…service…they’re requesting…
