The Democratic People's Republic of Korea commends our noble comrades from the People's Republic of China on this holy mission of unparalleled courage. We would like to take this opportunity to commit further cooperation between the free nations of Earth, including Iran, Syria, Cuba and Pakistan, in extending our influence into the stars through technological advancements; opposing the imperialistic aspirations of the European and North American space agencies; and aspiring to one day bless the Moon with a utopian worker's paradise.

Germany feels that N Korea's aspiration is a little out of it's reach.
Also that....
"We would like to take this opportunity to commit further cooperation between the free nations of Earth, including Iran, Syria, Cuba and Pakistan, in extending our influence into the stars through technological advancements"
The "Democratic" People's Republic of Korea should focus on improving the quality of life for those under the tyranny of Kim Jong-un
And that this is why issues exist in the DPRK (1) A lack of change in North Korea’s policy over the past decade plus,
(2) North Korea’s non-cooperation with international aid organizations thus leaving its people in absolute poverty,
(3) Ineffective distribution of food aid from international doners,
(4) The poor allocation of domestic funds which is being squandered on defense (military, nuclear weapons) programs,
(5) The use of food to ensure loyalty and control of the people to the oppressive regime.
This is a call for N Korea to focus on it's people.

The DPRK is not bound by NPT and therefore, have every right to purse a nuclear program as prescribed to them by their freedom to state sovereignty.

The Kingdom of Spain: disagrees with N Korea's comments and commendation. These 'free countries' have a duty to their people first not their international reputation which comes second. Hence why Spain has chosen to improve its domestic problems before foreign ventures.

As we have made clear, we are open to talks with the illegitimate 'government' of the southern half of our nation once our fellow people, held in capitalist bondage, rise up to demand Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un's enlightened leadership.

Our duty to our people is nothing less than ensuring our position as the most distinguished country on this planet.
As we have made clear, we are open to talks with the illegitimate 'government' of the southern half of our nation once our fellow people, held in capitalist bondage, rise up to demand Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un's enlightened leadership.
We thank our mighty comrades for their valuable support against the Western tyrants.
The boundless achievements of the Soviet space program serves as an eternal inspiration for us all. We lament the passing of the program from the control of workers to greedy, parasitic oligarchs, leaving it a shadow of its former glory.

The Kingdom of Spain: South Korea is not illegitimate, if they people don't want it then they can vote it out in the next election. A Marxist inspired uprising is any thing but democratic.
OOC: This is a good debate! Well done on representing NK so well!

Indonesia asks the DPRK if they wish to comment on theses accusations of their space program being nothing but an attempt to develop nuclear weapons. If the DPRK deny that they are producing such weapons then Indonesia asks for full impartial inspections to be done of the space program to asses the DPRK's truthfulness.

What rights does the Federal Republic of Germany or Indonesia have to supersede the sovereignty of another state to its domestic affairs? Syria knows hegemony when it sees it.

The Federal Republic of Germany is not committing 'hegemony' as we are not forcing the DRPK allow an inspection into it's space technology but simply wanting an inspection to be done but only at the will of the DPRK.

That would be imperialism, hegemony is to try to extend one's influence over the internal decision-making of a state, which is what Germany is doing. Syria does not appreciate it.

Hegemony is an indirect form of government, and of imperial dominance in which the hegemon rules geopolitically subordinate states by the implied means of power, the threat of force
Germany does not want to push this inspection by force but to ask the DRPK to allow for inspection.
