To say things have been tense in Northern Seleya is an understatement. With Kalistan looking to draw some distance from Baltusia, economic pain for both sides has been expected and has arrived. While Baltusia looks abroad for new partners, the Merridan Administration is committed to maintaining cordial relations with Northern Seleyan States, and maintaining prosperity. In an event to ensure relations don't deteriorate or unnecessary economic harm continues to affect Baltusia and Kalistan, First Minister Merridan has looked to propose the Lucid Accords, in which both Baltusia and Kalistan can smooth out valid concerns over national security, and economic sovereignty. While it is of the opinion that Baltusia has the right to sovereignty and trade with free nations, it must come without economic, or diplomatic harm. Hence, the Lucid Accords will ideally ensure Baltusian and Kalistani diplomats can find a mutually beneficial outcome. Baltusia is willing to ensure Kalistani concerns are addressed, and met. Especially in regards to the possibility of infiltration from unideal residents.
The First Minister had this to say about the proposal.
However, Lodamun has looked to establish economic relations. With the syndicalists gone, the door is once again open for economic ties between Lodamun and Baltusia, but because of the Kundrati deal, lines in the sand have been drawn. And to that end, the Merridan Administration has looked to address those lines in the sand, and not challenge them, but welcome them. The Merridan Administration has looked to reassure Lodamun that no actors from questionable regimes will be involved in any economic deal between Lodamun and Baltusia, and ensure that ethical trade is not only kept, but maintained long term. The Baltusian Commercial, Trade and Integrity Council be responsible for ensuring Lodamunese concerns are met, addressed and acknowledged. The First Minister has looked to ensure that economic ties with Lodamun and Baltusia are enjoyable to both parties. As the First Minister continues to work towards resolving the diplomatic scene, we can only hope for success.

Quote:I under that Her Majesty in Kalistan has strong opinions about Kundrati, and our deal with them. Absolutely, I understand. I can't blame her at all for being upset. That is why I want to negotiate with Kaliburg. The Lucid Accords will help ensure that our two great nations don't fall back into hostility like we saw in the syndicalist era. Kalistan has valid concerns. Just as valid as any other nations concerns would be. Should Kaliburg accept the proposal, we can make solid ground in finding a mutually beneficial outcome for both parties. We are fully committed to, and fully willing to work with Kalistan to ensure their national security concerns are met. Whether it be strengthening border checks, stronger vetting, or working with Kalistani border authorities to ensure no undesirable individuals cross the border. No one wants to go back to the hostility that we saw with the syndicalists. No one wants that. Should Kalistan accept, I look forward to the negotiations. The last thing any of our nations deserve is continued economic pain. I am absolutely sure we can hash out an agreement that limits or even outright ends any economic pain whilst ensuring security concerns are not barely met, but shot out of the water. No nation should have to fear for its security. Kalistan is not exempt from that. I do hope Kalistan agrees to the Lucid Accords. We can work out a mighty fine deal. I'm sure of it.
