The Syndicate Spire
NEDEA'S REQUEST FOR PARLEY
OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUE
To: Strategic Ministry of NationStates (S6), Athretvari
From: Syndicate Liaison Bureau, Nedea
Subject: Turbulent Relations
On behalf of the Nedean Business Tribunal, our Chairman of the Board, Drake Fairtrade formally requests a parley with the esteemed Anra Agājio, Strategosa of Athretvari. His objective is to hopefully calm some of the awkward tensions that have beset our great nationstates. It has been far too long since the last time a Defender and a Chairman got together to discuss the climate of our region and of our relations between our nations. His topics of discussion are as follows...
1. To reach an understanding with the Vari about their advanced technology and bring an end to the sanctions.
2. To discuss the Realms proposal of an International Monetary Fund with the Kredit Union as a major financier.
3. To reup and establish proper treaties and contracts between the Realms and the Syndicate.
4. To discuss a partnership between Argus Organic and the High-Technate scientific community to combat the Loco-Coco Megapest and secure our regions agriculture industry.
5. Most importantly, The Chairman would like to get to know the Vari more personally and hopefully bring an end to some of the terrible racism against your great people by some Nedean Firms and citizens.
The Chairman would be happy to host the Defender in DarkHaven at the Syndicate Spire, however if the Defender would like to host or has a preference in the matter of location, by all means the Chairman is willing to accept any convenient arrangement.
We hope we can bring an end to these anomalies in our relations and work together for a greater Delta.
THE ATHRETVARI RESPONSE
OFFICIAL COMMUNIQUE
To: Syndicate Liaison Bureau, Nedea
From: Strategic Ministry of NationStates (S6), Athretvari
Subject: Improving and Developing Relations
Peace and prosperity to the esteemed members of the Syndicate Liason Bureau, the Nedean Business Tribunal, Chairman Drake Fairtrade, and to the People of Nedea.
The Strategic Ministry of NationStates confirms receipt of the Bureau’s previous communique, and upon initial examination, the Ministry believes the proposals contained therein are appropriately worthy of address & decision by the Strategosa and her high council. Upon her declared decision, the Ministry will draft an appropriate response in consultation with the Defenderate (the office and secretariat of the Strategosa).
Our government does wholeheartedly agree to the creation of some type of a dedicated ‘Athretvari Nedea Bilateral Forum’ to facilitate communications between our governments. Please let us know if there are any technical details you wish our government to handle. (We are by no means married to the name, and happy to consider another.)
THE ATHRETVARI FOLLOW UP
Strategosa agrees to meet Nedean leadership in DarkHaven
Ars Scientia The Ministry of NationStates quietly issued a public advisory today announcing Strategosa Agājio, Defender of the Realms, has formally accepted an invitation to DarkHaven to meet with the leadership of the Nedean Syndicate.
The news comes as tensions between the second and third largest economic powers on Enkon have increased recently after the Athretvarian Government imposed strict anti-loco coco customs inspections on all Nedean imports. Which were soon followed by what many in the halls of Ars Scientia called “revenge-sanctions” by the Syndicate Liaison Bureau on Ath-Tech AIs.
Anonymous sources in the Ministry and the Defenderate say the Strategosa faced stiff resistance from the High-Admirality, with Admiral Askov Ihval, Governor-General of Philosophia leading opposition to the Defender meeting with Chairman Fairtrade after the recent escalation in tensions, saying the Admiral advocated taking a tough line against the Nedeans. The Strategosa eventually won over enough admirals to end the debate by promising she would be “tough and not yeild an inch, nor betray the interest of the Technate or any of its Realms.”
Exact details of the summit are expected to be announced by the Nedean Government relatively soon. The Ministry refused to provide more information except to say the Strategosa hoped to forge a better, mutually beneficial relationship with the Nedeans.
SUMMIT SCHEDULE
We are pleased to hear the Stratagosa has accepted the offer to parley. As it has been a very long time since the last summit we thought it would be beneficial to update the Defender of her itinerary as some things may have changed. . .
The Strategosa is expected to provide her own transportation from Athretvari to Nedea via air travel. We have opened a landing strip in the Tribunal Private Airport for the Strategosa's jet. From there a vehicle with escort will be provided to ensure the Strategosa's safe travel from the Airport to the Syndicate Spire. Then a Liaison Pass will be provided to the Strategosa free of charge and a lift will be made available for direct travel to the top of the Spire. Once the Strategosa arrives they need only present their pass to Mr. Fairtrade's secretary and they will be given access to the Chairman's office where the Summit shall commence.
The Athretvari government is more than welcome to provide additional protection as they see fit but should they require access to the Syndicate Spire, a fee of K$12,500 shall be applied to provide them with Liaison Passes. It should be noted however that only the Strategosa is invited into Mr. Fairtrades sanctum.
We look forward to your arrival Strategosa.
