Æthelstansunu also started to re-evaluate Tretrid's global position, which had grown precarious from years of neglect. Under the early months of his government, Æthelstansunu would start engaging Volscina, Celanora, Kuthernburg, and Nacata more actively.

The Ministry of Defense has also vehemently denied allegations that incendiary weapons were used in strategic bombing raids, and argued that white phosphorus was only used for signaling and smokescreen-generating purposes.
