The Ryccian Foreign Ministry has expressed “concern” for the comments made by Frost lawmakers, stating that “although we trust in our security inspection protocols, it is never a failure to be cautious. On the contrary, to be constantly aware of the changing circumstances of the world and acting accordingly by updating the relevant regulations and promoting awareness of the law among the public, both domestic and foreign, is natural, efficient and responsible. In Ryccia’s case in particular, our peculiar legal status on drug use may confuse some Valkyrian citizens unfamiliar with the details of our laws, and may import products from their country illegally without being aware of it. It is a government’s responsibility to raise awareness of public safety and promote the rule of law of both its and other foreign states. We hope the Frost government and its officials take interest in pursuing a proactive stance in the development and preservation of rule of law not only domestically, but abroad. The Ryccian government will always be receptive to cooperation for the cause of international security and law enforcement to preserve the constitutional orders of both its state and others, and we invite the Frost administration, as well as other governments, to initiate contact to work together towards achieving these noble goals”.
