Baroness Kayla Alvarez to Represent Kaliburg in Hutori

The baroness of Frontera Barony in far western Dana County, Lady Kayla Alvarez-Douglas has been named the Permanent Ambassador Extraordinaire and Plenipotential to the Kingdom of Hutori.  Kalistan has been represented by the Consul General, His Excellency Marcus Weller for several years.  The naming of the new permanent ambassador has been delayed for several years due to the death of Emperor Fredrick III Ananto and the Princess Regent's unwillingness to name permanent representatives without input from the Grand Duchess of Ananto.

Lady Kayla Alvarez is the Second Cousin of Grand Duchess of Kalistan Lady Emily Suldanor.  Besides being the Baroness in Frontera, Lady Kayla has worked for 10 years as a researcher in Sulari, where she is a member of the International Political Economic Policy think tank New Southern Perspectives that advises the Kalistani Foreign Ministry on trade policy and analysis of foreign economic policy toward Kalistan and Anantonese Ocean Nations.  The think tank also is openly critical of economic liberalism, and tends to align closer to social democratic recommendations.

Lady Kayla Alvarez met with the Regent, the Chancellor of the Empire and Grand Duchess Mary Ananto-DeLaurentis, where she affirmed her intention to represent the Kalistani Government and its Sovereign to the best of her ability.  She said her goal was to improve relations with the Kingdom of Hutori and expand the Embassy in Bekenial into a center for Makon's Consular Services.  Kalistan does not maintain embassies in Davostag or Telamon, so if any nationals from those other countries need travel visas to Kalistan or any other consular services, they will be welcomed to visit the Kalistani Embassy in Bekenial or the northern Consulate in Carter City.

Lady Kayla Alvarez is expected to submit a list of deputies to lead the various interest sections in the Embassy within four months, but will likely wait until after the new Empress is crowned in November.
