| Message | We have no duty to do so, however, when it might endanger or lessen the lives of Republican citizens. The NPN is in favor of aiding foreign nations, but it cannot support doing so for free. Aid must be tied to economic compensation or trade allowances to enable both Narikaton and Darnussia and our international friends to benefit from the aid we are able to extend. - Filippus Boerefijn, NPN Shadow Minister for Trade and Industry |
| Date | 01:10:01, July 16, 2015 CET | From | Kern | To | Debating the Foreign Aid Act |
| Message | "The Core shall not support proposals that would lead to the global few being taken advantage of by the global many. By tying developmental aid to economic growth and the creation of trading networks, this Government is promoting the Republic's credibility as a responsible modern power. This is something that we are very proud to be doing." Betje van der Akker, Centrist Foreign Affairs Spokesman |
