I thank you for your quick answer. I still think that this is a matter for the Foreign Minister, but alas, it would be a wonder if the excuse of a government we suffer from had got the distribution of responsibilites and portfolios right.
The Socialist Party however obviously is concerned about any sort of Atlasian imperialism - our continent has long enough suffered from it, after all!
The Foreign Ministry is actively tracking the situation. We had not wanted to unduly inflame any tensions with Atlasia given the potential for establishing diplomatic relations, but alas, isolationists prominent in their political process have made that a slim possibility regardless.
