What if espionage ideas gave you the ability to remove foreign claims on your land?

[Vardariotai]

Espionage is supposed to be a form of soft power, an alternative to your military, something that small nations can take advantage of to challenge big powers? Why not give coutries with espionage ideas the ability to remove non-permanent claims from your territory? If you start as an OPM around one of the big powers, this could be a great way to play the game dilomatically as opposed to conquering everything in a rush to build a powerbase to protect yourself?

That’s an interesting idea, but of course it should be balanced and not made too annoying. Maybe increasing the cost of claims could do the trick too.
