Luthori welcomes Beluzian state visit; announces another in Beluzia.
November 5586 (backdated)
Fort William, Luthori - The Luthorian Foreign Secretary, Mrs. Matilda Hoptkins received her Beluzian counterpart, Mrs. Peggy Hampton to the Bismarck Palace for the "establishment" of "basic diplomatic contacts" between the Luthorian Empire and the Beluzian Republic. Ever since the victory of Mrs. Hampton's Labour Party in Beluzia, the focus of the new Beluzian government was to "restore" or "install", depending on the person you ask, the Beluzian Republic in the Artanian Continental System. This visit, according to Mrs. Hampton addressing herself to Luthorian media tonight, was "the first step towards that aim", the visit from Mrs. Hampton went according to the Luthorian Foreign Office at Bismarck Palace, quite well. The two ministers discussed of many subjects impacting both countries, the first, at least, for Luthori was the matter of illegal immigration from the Beluzian Republic to the Luthorian Empire, other subjects discussed was about the loosening of each nations' respective tariffs on each other's goods, the renewal of cross-border trade and finally, the renewal of a policy of cultural exchange between Beluzia and Luthori, whose brand of Luthorian culture are different from one another due to years, if not centuries or even millennials. The Foreign Secretary stated to her Beluzian counterpart, Luthori's position on the matter of relations with Beluzia, as due to Beluzia being a Luthorian-speaking state, one of the few in the Artanian continent, mostly due to the Luthori's Union with Beluzia during the days of the Agathionian Empire.
The Foreign Minister of Beluzia also met the Luthorian Prime Minister, Mr. Warner Reyburn and the Beluzian-Luthorian Home Secretary, himself descending from a family of Beluzian immigrants who came to Luthori, Mr. Kenneth McCoy. And she also visited a traditional Beluzian-dominated neighbourhood in Northminster.
On the things discussed, the Luthorian Foreign Secretary announced, that while the two didn't found an agreement yet, finalisation of the deal between Luthori and Beluzia would be happening in Beluzia, with the visit from the Luthorian Prime Minister being planned to finalise the agreement between the two states.
