What? Iberia is going to try and convince the Mexicans that all their weapon tests should take place inside the cities?

How secret are the Mexican Canal defences? The very secrecy of the Iberian projects hint at an offensive nature. For deterance to work you need to reveal the nature of the defences. The Atlantic Wall and the Maginot Line where not secret, the Ardennes Offensive and the Normandy Invasion were.Quoted
Atlantis has purchased large amounts of aircraft as well in addition to helping mexico protect the mexican canal project. This could also be seen as provocative.
Mexico also has a Pacific side. And what is to stop Iberia from basing ships in the Pacific side of the Canal and then transfering them rapidly across the Canal?Quoted
The fact that they have negotiated with the U.S. and Atlantis in an effort to reduce all threes naval presence in the caribbean is worth noting as well.

Most probably. Most of my recent actions are a direct result of the secrecy.Quoted
I'll accept your point about the secrecy, but would Mexico have reacted any differently if it was made public?
But only Iberia has direct access to the Canal. So for the time being only Iberia has the capability to quickly and drasticlly shift the balance of power.Quoted
Nothing is stoping Atlantean ships from visiting Colombia and the Americans are fully entitled to base ships in the Pacific.

Mexico is just paranoid. Whatever Iberia does, Mexico sees it as the prelude to an attack. In reality we just need to sit back and watch Mexico run its economy into the ground with all this new armament. Doubling the armed services budget??

When your Armed Forces buget is small to begin with doubling it won't hurt a bit. It will even help the local economy as most purchases will be local.
Well Iberia has not done anything to make Mexico think otherwise. Huge numbers of assault craft, bombers, and now secret projects, oh and invasion preparations cloaked under jokes of Moon invasions. If Iberia is such a peaceloving nation, why do they need large numbers of assault landing craft?
