Kalistani Major History

[Doc]

After the very successful maritime exercises with the Beiteynuese Navy, the Royal Ministry of Defense reached out to neighboring Kalistan in an attempt to organize yet another round of naval exercises, this time with the guarantors in peace in the northern Anantonese. The Royal Ministry of Defense's recent plans for regional security revolves around the policy of the Royal Ministry of International Affairs. To keep up with national policy and to ensurethe cooperation between Lourenne and Seleya, the RMD decided it was best to reach out to Kalistan in hopes that both nations could learn new thingsfrom each other. The RMD made it clear that the continuation of more-than-amiable relations with Kalistan was a necessity, not only for Lourennais policy, but for stability in the region. Kalistan's Regular Forces have been known for their exceptionality in untraditional warfare and their expertise in guerilla strategy. The Royal Minister of Defense, Micheline Moreau contacted the Kalistani Ministry of Defense in hopes that such exercises could be organized. Positively for Moreau, the neighboring nation was more than welcoming to these exercises considering their recent exercises exposed a lack of cooperation with Kalistan.

Exercises "Ananto" were organized by the Royal Navy in consultation with the Kalistani First Fleet. The exercises, completely specialized towards navalwarfare, were conducted off the coast of Outannais in Lourennais waters. The exercises combined a mix-used strategy created by fusing Lourennais doctrine revolving around adaptability and Kalistan's more loose doctrine. The exercises made a great use of new Lourennais technology, set to be available to Kalistani counterparts. The exercises also used new radar technology under Programe Titanaboa that made location and reconnaissance services part of the exercises. Minister Moreau stated that "exercises conducted with Kalistan reinforce our relationship with them, but also reinforce our position in the near region. We are committed to peace and security in our part of the world. We would do anything to avoid tension and bad intentions with our neighboring nations." The Royal Minister stated that it was unfortunate that Kalistan could not reach international cooperation with its amphibious exercises. "As a more influential power in the region, Kalistan holds the key to cooperation in Seleya. We are more than grateful to have such a friend to our West and we will do anything in our capacity to ensure that this friendship continues--even if we only decide to play boats in this great region we share", says Moreau.
