Communication with Kalistan allegedly began days ago involving the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and then involved the Ministry of Defense. Many members of the brethren church in Kalistan have asked for permission to meet up with the members of the Lourennais branch of the church as well as return the bodies of the deceased Kalistani officials. The message was received by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, specifically, Madame Capét. After a few messages delivered and sent, Madame Capét ended the temporary travel and trade restriction on Kalistan. The travel restriction and the trade restriction were both implemented when Kalistan declared that they would be illegally sending drugs into Lourenne. Since then, drug related crimes in Lourenne have significantly dropped and trade has not dropped either.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, however, has called upon the Ministry of Defense to no longer stop Kalistani ships in the sea but rather search any goods that arrive in Lourennais ports.The battle against drugs has not ended, but restrictions on Kalistanis has certainly lessened. Also, The bodies of the Kalistani officials killed in Statrica are currently being kept in a government safe house in Porte Orléans, Louives. Permission to retrieve the bodies has been given and was recommended to travel to Porte Orléans by ship to ensure safe travel by the Lourennais navy in the Kankawaran Bay. Although much tension still occurs between Kalistan and Lourenne still exists, this may be the beginning of better relations between the two countries.
