Foreign Minister Albert Albrecht in Fort Williams

Fort Williams, Luthori - Foreign Minister Albert Albrecht (GPP) has landed in Luthori's capital city, Fort Williams, and today will attend a meeting with his counterpart, Secretary John Pottle, that was scheduled from some time and a result of the new rapprochement of the Dundorfian Federal Government and Their Majesties' Government in Luthori. Previously, the relations between the two countries became colder after Dundorf chose to avoid the use of military force with concern to Kundrati, a move decided by the then DSDP-led federal government, which labeled it as "pacifist". 

Minister Albrecht, today representing a centrist Grand-Coalition government, has come to Luthori with a few things in his mind: rapprochement, trade expansion and cultural exchanges. Trade has always been one area of great pride for Dundorfian foreign policy in the past, a tool that allowed our country to grow economically and maintain good relations with many nations. Mr. Albrecht, said a Foreign Ministry source, wants to "build on that": currently, trade between the two is mainly composed by cars, mining products and alimentary products, and the Minister will surely want  to discuss what products and economic sectors they could both add to their trade balance. 

On education, Mr. Albrecht is pursuing a policy area that is dear to his party, the Greens, and the President: higher education. The proposal is to create a program of exchange for University-level students between the two countries, something that some in the Green Party believe should be expanded, one day, to the whole continent. Minister Albrecht will also reassure the Luthorian government that IDI, our nation's international school, will remain open in the country. According to informed sources, the Luthorian Secretary is expected to push the issue of security and the military, but no details are emerging as of now, this informations will probably become publicly available after the meeting. According to his schedule, at the end of his stay in Fort Williams, Minister Albrecht will return to Dundorf and will have talks with the Chancellor and with the President, in order to discuss the way forward for Dundorfian foreign policy. But one thing is approaching: October, and with it, the next Federal Election.
