Aliquantus has begun a second day of testing south of the Lambert Colony to prepare Aliquantus as a nuclear weapons capable state.

Top scientist Jannine Amarula said the large team working on the project were doing their "level best" to finnish testing on schedule as weather and native protesters had delayed them two days ago.

The project was today praised by Minister of Aliquantus Coventina, saying "the project had not oversteped the budget, yet the expectations where met". Marchioness Minerva, Viceroy to Foreign Countries gave her praise and noted the strugle towards nuclear power "We have to look towards tomorrow, today a nuclear capable nation may become hostile and it is better to deny UN resolutions than to not exist at all".

'Cause For Concern'

The Ministry of Defence and Foreign Office have stated concern about nations wanting to deny Aliquantus nuclear capability. A spokeswoman said "the project may cause international tensions, it may mean that other nations are more inclined to ally with us, we have to wait and see".

The missile testing has begun, the project will end with 'live' testing, launching the missile and then to launch and detonate a warhead. The project leaders have yet to decide where to detonate it.

Official Imperial Response

The Imperial Kingdom has long been a strong ally and supporter of Aliquantus..we must request that launch testings be publicized before they commence..and that the detonation of an actual warhead occur underground to avoid spreading radiation throughout the region

Launch testing and detonation will be publicized as you requested, underground testing is still unsafe and we have opted to detonate a warhead far outside of our region, we are still looking for a 'platform' nation to test a detonation over.

The Imperial Kingdom is pleased with your cooperation our reasoning for the public declaration of tests is for the safety of the region..as unannounced launches of ICBM's undoubtedly would be cause for great concern..If you should desire the Imperial Kingdom is willing to send scientists and technicians to aid in your nuclear program
