Veteran Sea Captain Marcus Creighton to head Kalistani Trade Mission to Majatra

The Ministry of Trade and Industry has commission Comrade Captain Marcus Creighton to sail a trade Armada to Majatra, to stop at various ports along the coast of the Majatran Sea. "We were informed that Kalistani ships sailing in the Majatran Sea would be obliterated before we made a single cent," said Creighton. "However, that was years ago and things have changed. We will sail the Majatran Sea and sell Kalistani goods at all friendly ports."

Creighton intends to fly Kalistani Colors for most of the trip, but in the event of interdiction efforts, they will reserve the option to reflag the vessels. "We don't know of any code which restricts the colors we fly in the face of hostile actors," said Creighton. The manifest that is to be sold might be considered contraband in several nations along the route, and the fleet will attempt to evade or dissuade interdiction as it sails to its trade ports.

"We expect to be carrying significant quantities of ODEN product, to set up floating markets in international waters. Since ODEN doesn't import drugs to foreign countries, we just want to bring the market closer to potential buyers." In addition to ODEN goods, the Kalistani fleet plans to bring surplus KALMILINCO products. "Deltaria finds itself at war rather frequently. Surely there are actors there who need guns, ammunition, anti aircraft shoulder fired rockets, and the like. Supply and demand is a thing." Creighton will also bring things like field rations, military clothing and boots, and is empowered to write contracts for larger shipments with individual and private actors in the region.

The Armada expects to leave later this month, and is keeping its route to Majatra largely a secret, to deter interdiction or delay, but it is believed that they will be travelling by way of the Aldegar Canal.
