135 Chapter 135: The Situation in the Far East

The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Australia made it clear that although Australia does have sufficient mineral resources, if they were to sell them to the island nation, the price would need to at least double.

Tomizawa Yoichiro also anticipated that Australia would raise the prices of mineral resources. After all, the fundamental aspect between nations is their interests. If one does not strive for the interests of their own country, it is equivalent to treason.
