Re: Medical Vessels

sending armed ships to "help" the world, I could understand the Romulans or Cardassians being uneasy at the prospect, but if they sent in unarmed vessels then the risk of them being used offensively is pretty much nil. Yes they may be at risk, but then even if they were armed it wouldn't ...
