Yingdalan Government Considers Investing in Kalistan as Relations with Old Friends Improve

The Yingdalan government has seriously considered Kalistan's proposal for developing its agriculture sector. With the recent end of conflict, agriculture investments could be a good way to promote stability, demonstrate Yingdala's friendship to the world, and reestablish the fraternal relationship that once existed between Kaliburg and Tian'an.

Given recent agricultural technology development in Yingdala, Tian'an would be the prime choice for Kalistan's agriculture ambitions. Already, the Kalistani government spoke directly with Prime Minister Xiao Tai, who handles food and agriculture affairs for Yingdala. Specifically, the Kalistanis are interested in the introduction of cereal grains. It is said the Prime Minister spoke positively about the possibility - but a firm decision has not been made. However, should Yingdala assist, it would help the Kalistani government feed its people, something Kaliburg and Tian'an can agree is extremely important.

Beyond mere development, Yingdala's possible efforts would help Terra see that Yingdala cares about all people. Food is a necessity. Increasing access is of paramount importance, a cause which has been taken up by the World Congress. Tian'an sees its role as not only doing what is right, but also doing what is responsible.

All of this comes at a time when Yingdala has been pushing to improve its relationships with Seleyan and Dovanian nations. In addition to comprehensive treaties with Rildanor and Baltusia, Yingdala signed treaties with Drania and Gaduridos - countries that once served as Yingdala's familial allies. Although the treaty with Drania does not contain defense provisions, those have not been ruled out for the future. Furthermore, with the eventual ratification of the treaty with Gaduridos, Yingdala will be allowed to construct a total of three joint defense bases in Ridlanor, Baltusia, and Gaduridos - pledging to ensure freedom of the seas for all countries and peoples.
