Why is your nation seeking to join the Defense Partner Program? Since the approval of the Second Constitution in 1975, opening a new age in Nanako's external politics, the Nanakian Armed Forces lost thier offensive mission, transfering to the NSDF.
The NSDF main missions had for main tasks peacekeeping missions and civilian support. The turn of the XXIth century saw the arrival of newer warfare tactics, needing no practical battleground. Terrorism scattered all around the globe. In 2006, positions of the Nanakian Government towards a pro-russian movement in a neighboring country, led to a pro-russian terror attack on sovereign territory. Moreover, the tension caused by Chinese militarism and North Korean diplomatic aggressions led to an increase of the military budget spending in late 2006. Eventually, the parliament decided to modify article 23 of the constitution and allow the NSDF to participate in joint coalitions against terrorist groups or unrecognized terrorist states. Most recently, the NSDF saw action in fighting ISIS and russian-backed guerillas in a neighboring country in which the NSDF was previously peacekeeping.
But still, despite being a super developed and modern, highly skilled and trained military, the Army lacks numbers to even think about defending themselves against Russia or China, thus, the government seeks allies all around the world.
Among current allies of the Nanakian miliatry (in Real universe) you may find Australia, Japan, New-Zealand, Canada, France-UK-USA and NATO (not part of but active participant) and most recently India.
After the recent establishment of your embassy to Nanako, we reach to you our friendly wishes to start collaboration on military concern.
