The Andreusville Talks (Janpian BDS Participants only)

[Southeast Marajarbia]

"That would be a little too dangerous and harmful, don't you think?"

"I agree that it would be somewhat provocative and escalatory, and that isn't necessarily the route we want to take. That said, I am very glad that Gralov is a supporter of the BDS and is willing to share its deterrent weapons with other allied nations in order to show commitment and for protection. We would, personally, encourage the nation of Gralov to become a full signatory of the sanctions and boycott, as it would officially allow them to join the mutual defense pact and ensure that if one member nation is attacked, our enemies and other nations who would wish to harm any of us are aware that they are dealing with a nuclear-armed nation."

"We agree as well, but this isn’t a war. It's a show of pure diplomatic pressure to show to the Janpians that the world does not approve of their actions to disrupt the world's economy. Their actions on a major superpower like the Marajarbian Federation, have the power to not only decrease Marajarbia's economy, but start something far worse than the Great Depression."

IC: "It appears like the Janpian Containment strategy is working well. The Janpians recently published an article which appears to have been rushed by its author, who is calling for war to break out. This could work well in our favor, given that the Janpians making such threats looks bad for them and even worse for KTO."

OOC: when are you going to reply to the fact that Janpia is trying to stop you from taking his cargo ships

OOC: I see Janpia didn’t read the part where it said "escort" and only saw the part where it said "impound/seize if there are hostilities". Nevertheless, a response has been made.

Dudek enters the room after meetings with the Piscatanian government. His appearance betrays exhaustion, and his demeanor betrays anxiety.

"Gentlemen, it has come to my attention that more representatives back home are objecting to the prospect of entanglement into a war transcending boundaries of the Piscatanian Home-Dimension than was previously anticipated by the cabinet, especially as the press, both locally-foreign and domestic, has had a field day since our activities including a defense pact became clear. The cabinet feels that it may be of assistance in calming parliament and getting the Piscatanian signature on the treaty ratified if the participants in these talks were to assess the status of their combined forces in a secure channel before making any further moves."

“Secure channels could probably be arranged. You never know who might be attempting to ruin the purpose of these talks, after all.”

OOC: How do we do this? Discord or Telegrams? If discord, will make once I am on my PC.

OOC: Discord would be best for me

"It appears as if the Countesians are making a mistake. If everyone is aware, recently the Countesians have seized two Marajarbian ships, selling the goods and keeping the profits to themselves. However, this is a mistake on their part because they are transporting and selling Marajarbian products alongside their allies to the people within KTO member states. I believe this could be used to gain an advantage."

If I'm understanding what you're saying correctly- You're saying that Courtesean forces seized a shipping vessel that was carrying good from not only the Marajarbian Federation, but also from member states of the KTO?

"No, only from the Marajarbian Federation. They apparently resold those goods and split the profits with KTO's leadership, the Janpian Government."

Dudek, who has increasingly been away communicating with the homeland, saunters in, phone in hand.

"Gentlemen, it seems that, after today's circus in the Piscatanian Press, I have been recalled to Kingston to 'receive a new assignment,' which sounds to me like they intend to demote me and stick me as an ambassador in golden handcuffs in some quiet, unassuming nation as punishment for my involvement in this scandal.

I have also been instructed to inform you that all our high hopes for this collaboration have been rendered obsolete, and that after the latest news, the Parliament is more likely to approve a manned IASA mission on the Sun than to ratify either the BDS document or a further agreement.

I was, however, told to send their sincerest apologies and general expressions that the Marajarbian claim in the dispute remains the truer in the eyes of the Empire.

And with that, I'm afraid I must take my leave."
