Bab 235: Chapter 229 Seduction_1

As soon as Badis's words were out, the dozen or so representatives in the room became a mess, emitting various ambiguous noises.

Italy does have some aerospace technical strength, but mainly in the manufacturing of space capsules. Rockets? It takes the combined effort of 11 countries to produce an Ariane rocket.
