We are not trying to push any particular point on the Space issue, we just feel that it is remarkably stupid that as a Majatran nation we are members of the "Dovani Space Agency" OOC: Wow, stunning flip-flop. |

| Message | "I think it's somewhat hypocritical for the Saiserist League to not support this, as it would hamper our development of ICBMs. Given the fact that a single ICBM can attack several different dispersed targets, it would be ridiculous to not be in this or the DSA." -Brig Gen Colin Campbell, 2nd Engineer Corps & éirígí spokesperson for Science & Technology. |

| Message | Our support of ICBM's does not require us to sign onto a treaty that would force us to share our advancements with a parade of foreign nations. We also have not flip-flopped, for unlike the Federal Republican Party we aspire to have principles, for we never stated that we support the International Space Agency. We merely pointed out that it was a different matter altogether from leaving a space agency concerned solely with Dovani and Keris, while we are located on Majatra. The vote on the previous bill will make manz internationals assume Zardugal to be verz geographically-challenged. - Official Spokesman Artur Churkin |
| Date | 15:00:22, June 05, 2008 CET | From | Saiserist League | To | Debating the Ratification of the International Space Agency |
| Message | "For further elaboration of the Saiserist League's stance, we point to our particular disagreement with Articles II, III, and IV of the treaty being put forward for ratification." ~Official Spokesman Artur Churkin |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
