"Last year, the Assembly of the League, as a result of the initiative taken by the Scandinavian nations, further limited and clarified all the provisions of the clause prescribing the duty of states to participate in sanctions"

In this quote, Hjalmar Branting is describing the actions taken by the Assembly of the League of Nations in the previous year. He discusses that the Scandinavian nations played an essential role in this, as they took the effort to propose modifications to the provision that outlines the obligation of states to take part in sanctions. These modifications were focused on making the provisions more specific and clear, potentially to ensure that all member states were held responsible for their actions. This quote highlights the significance of partnership and cooperation amongst countries in upholding worldwide contracts and promoting peace and stability.
