Message | Given our prominence in this field by now, we must agree to this. |
Date | 18:18:55, November 12, 2013 CET | From | Beluzian Republic Independence Party | To | Debating the Space Agencies I |
Message | No problems with that. To the upp, if we are going to further expand our space networks we should ratify some international bills that agree about certain outer space conditions. There is I think a International Outer space treaty |
Date | 18:23:15, November 12, 2013 CET | From | Republican Democratic Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Space Agencies I |
Message | We agree |

Message | Yes there is one such treaty, but we do not propose to be party to it unless other major nations that have active space programmes but are usually violent and unreliable on the international relations front, ratify the treaty. Because the treaty states that outer space needs to be a clearly demilitarized place with no nation claiming sovereignty of any sort anywhere. Which we have no intentions of anyway, but we can't be sure of many others...and we have been in the forefront of space programmes for decades. So for now, lets just wait for the others to go first, and not risk ourselves to chances of a 'space war' now! |

Message | Rather than providing contracts to these space companies, we should make the business climate such that those companies want to relocate here or a locally sourced space company can form and thrive here. Contracting outside private companies does nothing but transfer wealth from Beluzia to another country. If we have our own private space industry here, then other countries can send their investment to us. |
Date | 22:21:08, November 13, 2013 CET | From | United People's Party | To | Debating the Space Agencies I |
Message | Liberty Party; the law in Beluzia assures that any private corporation, or any corporation for that matter that runs business here has a majority share controlled by Beluzians, even if the corporation/organization is a MNC/foreign entity. So, no matter what the area of business is, all our contracting companies are indeed majorly, if not wholly, Beluzian in nature and service. So, that mustn't be a concern at all. |
