RE: B-002: THE DIPLOMATIC MISSION ESTABLISHMENT ACT, 1673 - Alfonso Velez - 06-17-2019
Madam Speaker,
Developing diplomatic ties with other nations is key to our economic success as a nation, and the friendships we foster also provide powerful tools to help us avoid wars, protect our shipping interests, and to foster meaningful connections with other nations all across Micras. Without a strong foundation of diplomatic missions, these ties are difficult to develop. This bill takes an important step forward in ensuring that we have the diplomatic infrastructure in place to follow our diplomatic objectives and to strengthen our great Republic. Therefore, I encourage all MPs to support this bill and I commend it to Parliament.
