Recipient: Government of the Russian Federation

I'd like to extend our hand of friendship to your country and I would like to visit the Russian Federation on behalf of the Kingdom of Spain to meet with you to discuss a variety of topics which would bring our two nations closer and would better both of our nations in the long term.

[Andy]

The Spanish Foreign Minister was invited to the Russian Federation to meet with Sergey Lavrov the Russian Foreign Minister. An armored convoy would be arranged for the arrival of the Spanish delegation to take them to the meeting location in the capital. Sergey Lavrov would prepare numerous documentation for the meeting with the Spanish.

 

[Zak]

The Spanish Foreign Minister would inform the Russian Government that he will set off to Moscow after his meeting in Stockholm.

 

[Zak]

The Deputy Foreign Minister would instead make the trip to Moscow on a chartered Air Europa flight between Madrid and Moscow. The Russian's would be informed of the visit.

 

[Andy]

The same protocol for the Foreign Minister would be made for the Deputy Foreign Minister

 

[Zak]

Trinidad Jiménez would land in Moscow and would take a hired vehicle to where the meeting was to take place.

 

[Andy]

With Sergey still in the meeting with the Swedish the Deputy Foreign Minister would take his place waiting for the Spanish at the bottoms of the steps at the Foreign Ministry

 

[Zak]

Trinidad Jiménez would greet the Deputy Foreign Minister at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

"Hello there. Thank you for having me on such short notice."

 

[Andy]

“The pleasure is all mine, can I get you anything?” She’d lead the way into the office gesturing for the foreign minister to take a seat

 

[Zak]

The Deputy Foreign Minister walks into the office and takes a seat at the table.

"Just a water for me please."

 

[Andy]

An aide would step in bringing two glasses and a jug of ice cold water “So Minister welcome to Russia! What can I do for you?”

 

[Zak]

"Russia and Spain have long been friends under previous governments, we're in the market to look for a fighter jet and we have come across the Sukhoi PAK FA T-50. Would you be open to exporting it to Spain. We know it will cost a lot and we're open to paying in the region of $75,000,000 for said aircraft."

 

[Andy]

"Sadly this aircraft isn't for sale however we can offer you the Su-35 Flanker if you wish to buy aircraft"

 

[Zak]

"Would you export the Mikoyan MiG-35 instead? This was going to be our alternative if you wouldn't export the first aircraft."

 

[Andy]

“Certainly, however this aircraft does have a high price tag” he’d oause bringing up some calculations “$62,500,000.00 per unit”

 

[Zak]

The Deputy Foreign Minister nearly had a fit at the price given but decided to pay it anyway, it was on the Minister of Defence's head anyway.

"I'd like to place an order for 61 of this aircraft with the further possibility of ordering a further 50 aircraft when needed. Is this something you can do?"

 

[Andy]

“Certainly...” he’d pause doing some calculations “that’ll be $3,050,000,000.00, seeing as you are buying in bulk I’ve taken away a 20% discount which I’ll add to the further order of 50 as well when that is ordered”

 

[Zak]

"The appropriate funds have been transferred."

 

[Andy]

“Production will begin shortly”

 

[Zak]

"Thank you. I am required back in Spain. I must go. I apologise!" The Deputy Minister leaves back for Spain.
