To	Debating the Budget proposal of February 2812
Message	The Foreign Affairs is a ministry which requires money to function. It cannot function with a mere 2,000,000,000 (of course, this has a bit of irony in it). Some minor ministries have been given a greater budget, for crying out loud. This is a quite unbalanced proposal, therefore we vote against. Stefan Barna RRP
