The Commonwealth of Alterra welcomes Sedunn and the Frost Empire's offers to jumpstart diplomatic and trade relations and invites the aforementioned nations to talks in Alterra City, the Commonwealth capital and its largest city. While President Thomas Anderson has affirmed that 'friendly relations with all' will be the nation's policy in dealing with foreign nations, he remained firm on his decision to refuse any and all proposals to establish a foreign military presence on Alterran soil. However, a Presidential spokesperson commented that defense cooperation was possible, albeit not to the extent of stationing foreign militaries in Alterra.
