FOREIGN AFFAIRS OFFICE OF THE GEC

The GEC remains unperturbed by the cessation of trade with the states of the Third Mexican Empire and the United South Asian Empire. This action serves to further make the GEC a viable, independent economy. Any resources and products previously acquired from these two countries, if any, may be acquired elsewhere.

A never before seen stability came to the lands controlled by the Caliphate and this stability still holds firm, ensuring the cessation of large armed conflict inside and outside the country. In these fifteen years, the Caliphate of Istanbul has made no aggressive actions against the rest of the world yet has war declared upon it.

The GEC condemns the events that took place many years ago with the inception of the state, disapproving of the means used to assume control of the nation. Yet a war which may leave many more millions of people dead in its wake if not halted is worse by a large scale. In addition, the GEC joins the Caliphate in condemning the violation of Iranian sovereign without previous consent, viewing this action as the move taken by a bellicose nation set upon war.

As of this point in time, any and all Mexican and South Asian ships attempting to pass through the Mediterranean territory controlled by the GEC will be detained for inspection.

It is with great dismay that the Greater European Confederation regards the developing conflict between the allied Third Mexican Empire and United South Asian Empire and the Caliphate of Istanbul. With the desire for nothing but peace in the as of yet unrecovered world, the GEC invites the aforementioned nations to discussions in the city of Hamburg, Germany where an agreement upon a solution can be made in order to resolve the conflict.[/hider]

[hider= To the Kingdom of Neo-Hungaria]
The Foreign Affairs Office of the Greater European Confederation, in accordance with the wishes of the Chancellors and parliament, desires to advance the defense treaty signed between our two nations many years ago. Given current conditions in the world, the Confederation feels it necessary to accelerate the rebuilding of its military and infrastructure, as undesirable as the former may be. As such, a bilateral military research agreement is proposed to the illustrious Kingdom of Neo-Hungaria in order to improve the defensive capabilities of both nations. Furthermore, the Confederation feels it apt to extend a trade agreement to Neo-Hungaria, offering shipments of heavy industrial equipment, food stuffs, and eased border restrictions in exchange for carbon nanotubes and several other nanomaterials.[/hider]
