[4 June 5571]

The President of Kundrati, Christian Akerlund Mnesilochus Santoro Kafuricus (CAMSK), has announced that he will visit Istalia within the next few weeks to discuss trade between the two states. He has said that, in his visit, he will be meeting alongside his acting Foreign Minister Jindřich Matoušek with the leaders of Istalia now that their leader Casella passed away from an assassin's bullet.

CAMSK and Matousek have said that they wished to expand the burgeoning film and television industry relationship between the two states by potentially investing in Istalia's television studios and removing barriers to broadcasting Kundrati television in Istalia and vice versa. In addition, they hoped to promote Kundrati culture in Istalia and train local chefs on how to make staple Kundrati dishes. In exchange, they wished to establish an Istalia-Kundrati Cultural Council (IKCC) - the IKCC being in charge of promoting culture in the two nations and allowing these states to provide cultural and educational exchanges in the two states.

CAMSK also mentioned wanting to chat with Mr. Erminio Boni and Mr. Amanzio Berni. The two leaders, said CAMSK, were worthy of his time right now because they have shown constant competent leadership in "...steering the ship of state past the death of one of their most important leaders..." and providing Kundrati with a market to expand towards irrespective of political ideology.

ArtSat has begun considering expanding into Istalia by providing its citizens access to the wider Internet via its satellite Internet service. A few ArtSat engineers and representatives will follow the President to chat with their counterparts to set up a deal. Companies like Etxean Bank and other Kundrati tech companies are expected to do the same.
CAMSK and Matousek did not mention whether defense-related matters would be involved in the talks, citing that they did not wish to cause alarm in Majatra. On that note, Matousek provided the following statement on potential objections from Pontesi and others:

We hope that people do not take this as another reason to place our country on their side. As I've and others have said when Pontesi tried to recruit us to embargo Istalia we do not want to get involved in their bickering. We are firmly committed to the two states meeting up and straightening their differences out. If nations want to speculate, they can, but we do not want another Dorvism here.
