The Federal Republic of Yosai’s Department of State has issued an official communique condemning the Kingdom of Spain’s claims to the entire Straits of Adventuranza. Secretary of State Yuichi Matsuda made this statement.
“No nation within the EU that would be found in our position can think this is reasonable. The fact that the Spanish government lay claim to the entire Strait of Adventuranza unilaterally that include our ports and choose to tax them on top without any consideration or given authority outside of what they think is legal is ridiculous and at best piracy at worst it can be considered terrorism depending on how far they are willing to defend such claims through force if they choose. I’m sorry but we cannot agree to such a policy.”
General Secretary Junichi Watanabe agreed but did offer an option
“Obviously we cannot agree to such a policy and we stand by that. However, in the interest of stability and mutual respect I will be willing to meet with President Jesús Aguilar to come to some kind of agreement so that both of our nations can have an equal share in the claims of the Adventuranza Strait for the sake of mutual benefit. We see that as the only reasonable option that is in front of us right now.”
The Executive Office of the General Secretary along with the Federal Department of State await the response from the Spanish government. Proposed diplomatic missions to the Kingdom of Spain have been put on hold until then.

From Yosai the contribution will be Zinc, Lead, Sulphur, Uranium and Rare Earth Minerals. Hellas’ contribution in exchange will be fish, Copper Ore, Titanium, and Fish.
One of the ways to facilitate this trade is that both nations agreed to purchase exchange in ports. Yosai agreed to purchaser a freight port in Athens, and Hellas has purchased access to an exclusive port in Tokyo. The Yosainese government is pursuing this trade agreement with the goal of facilitating Yosainese trade within the Mediterranean.
Thus freight ships will be sent starting June with Yosainese products. A provision can be made for finished products the more trade is facilitated, but the Department of Commerce and Industry believes this will boost both nations economies.
