News of the Fourth Wallfacer spread rapidly through newspapers and broadcasts around the world.
Alvin's "declaration" spread just as quickly.
Its contents were unremarkable, hardly inspiring. Compared with the declarations of the three Wallfacers before him, it was downright mediocre.
The whole thing was filled with talk of how humanity had to unite. Naturally, it stirred resistance around the world among people who believed in "peaceful coexistence."

In fact, before Alvin took the stage, Sai had read his speech and clearly pointed out its problems.
The United Nations had plenty of staff who could have written a speech for him,
