I am writing to you to establish diplomatic relations between our two nations.

Prime Minister Putin, I would like to thank you for reaching out to me here at the Prime Minister's office. It is certainly a shame that our two governments have neglected in contacting each other outside of the defense industry and purchases made by the Kingdom of Poland from Rosoboronexport. I would be willing to visit Moscow to formalize these relations later on this month. I will attach an itinerary to this email regarding those who will be accompanying my on this trip as well as a list of topics Poland would like to discuss during this visit.

Sincerely, Jerzy Buzek Prime Minister Kingdom of Poland

The Russian government would be notified with amply time to allow them time to prepare for the arrival of the Polish delegation to Moscow and their designated landing location was Sheremetyevo International Airport

The government Tu-154 was fully refueled and stocked with provisions for the flight for Sheremetyevo International Airport while the Pilots of the aircraft ensured they were well rested and brought up to speed regarding anything they may hamper the trip. They would study meteorological data for the flight as well as maintenance reports for their aircraft to ensure that the aircraft was in proper working order. Once all of the pre-flight training and pre-flight checks were finished, the aircraft would be loaded with the Polish Delegation and begin working with the ATC at the 33rd Air Base, that housed the 1st transportation Air Base. After verifying with the ATC, the Tu-154 would taxi off of the runway and would ascend to 5,000 feet before maintaining that altitude for a few minutes and performing their final ascension to 20,000 feet. During the transit the aircraft would carefully monitor their radio and radar systems to insure they travelled safely and without interference from other Aircraft. The Polish aircraft would remain on Polish air defense radar until it past Minsk in Belarus where they would be flying without air coverage from Poland's domestic radars. The whole trip would take roughly an hour and a half of travel time before the Polish crew would begin conversing with the Russian ATC to begin landing procedures.

At Sheremetyevo International Airport, a convoy of vehicles manned by both the officers of the Moscow City Police and agents of the Federal Security Service. As the Polish delegation left their aircraft, they would be met by some of the agents and escorted to the vehicles.

After a short drive, the vehicles would arrive at the steps to the Kremlin Senate Building. On the steps would be a Polish and Russian flag and stood inbetween them, Vladimir Putin would be awaiting for the delegation to leave their vehicles.

Upon the arrival of the Polish Delegation at the Kremlin Senate Building, Polish Prime Minister Jerzy Buzek would be the first to greet the Russian Prime Minister.

"It is nice to see the Polish Flag and Russian Flag flying together as equals instead of as part of the Soviet Union. It is lovely to finally be in Russia, especially under such peaceful and auspicious times."

As the Polish and Russian Prime Ministers talked, the rest of the Polish delegation would disembark from the vehicles and join the duo on the steps of the Kremlin Senate Building steps. It was an excellent opportunity for a photo shoot to commemorate the first time a Polish government representative as on Russian soil since the Soviet Union dissolved over a decade prior.

The bustling city of Moscow was vibrant and alive as the Polish delegation was whisked through the capital of the Federation. The Russian Flag waved vibrantly over the Russian Prime Minister's formal office, the White House, as the protocol staff made final touches to the building upon the arrival of the Polish Prime Minister for a formal official visit.

The grandeur of the White House casted a looming shadow over the courtyard as the Polish delegation's convoy came to a halt. The crisp autumn breeze carried throughout the courtyard, as the Polish Prime Minister, Jerzy Buzek, stepped out, his gaze momentarily drawn towards the fluttering Polish and Russian flags, standing side by side.

Prime Minister Valeriya Kuzmina waited on the steps of the courtyard leading into the office. As Polish Prime Minister Buzek departed the vehicle and made his way to the Russian Prime Minister, Kuzmina would step towards him and meet him before the grand staircase. Greeting him, she guided him up the stairs as the two walked up to the flicker of camera shutters.

"It is a pleasure to host you Prime Minister Buzek. Once joined by the union in the fight against fascism, then in the brotherhood of socialist solidarity, and now as independent states, I am pleased to invite you to Russia amidst the backdrop of our long formed union that has withstood the test of time for decades before." The Russian Prime Minister with a poignant nod but one that left the words hung dry in the air creating a denseness.

As the two leaders walked up the stairs their delegation join the joint-delegation waiting at the top of the stairs where a group photo was taken. A carefully orchestrated procession unfolded on the steps of the White House. Cameras clicked and flashed, freezing this diplomatic rendezvous in the annals of international relations. Hopefully the start of a new partnership for Eastern Europe.

Once away from the press, the Russian and Polish Prime Minister would be able to sit down and get to work. Across each other in a long oak wood table, Prime Minister Kuzmina introduced her delegation to her Polish counterparts. She introduced Deputy Minster of National Defense Dmitry Bulgakov, Deputy Minister of Economy & Finance Alexander Bazhenov, Deputy Minister of Energy Veronika Nikishina, and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Mikhailov Gromyko.

Given it was the primary responsibility of the Russian Federation for the security of those within the White House, the ten armed security agents would not be permitted to entered armed given the lack of necessity on the view of the Russian Federal Security Services. The premise was maintained by the Russians and FSB snipers and other heavy operators patrolling nearby.

Inside, Prime minister Kuzmina would begin the talks with a brief remark. "It is both an honor and a privilege to welcome you to Moscow, extending my heartfelt welcome to Prime Minister Buzek and the esteemed delegation from Poland.

I am reminded of a history that transcends borders and echoes the resilience of our nations. Prime Minister Buzek, as I echoed earlier the essence of our shared journey is long. It runs deep like the bones in our bodies. Our countries were once united in the fight against fascism during the great patriotic war that saw the liberation of Poland from the clutches of fascism and occupation. We were bounded by the brotherhood of socialist solidarity in the self-determination of our political destiny as free people. We now standing as independent states before each other during most trying times.

Our union, forged in the crucible of challenging times, has not merely endured; it has thrived, weathering the tests of time for decades. Today, as we gather against the backdrop of this long-formed alliance, I am reminded of the strength that emanates from unity and the enduring spirit of cooperation that defines our relationship. I am hopeful that Russia and Poland will act as agents for stability, peace, and mutual co-existence in Eastern Europe and serve as a bulwark against Western European hegemony.

In the face of shifting geopolitical landscapes and evolving global dynamics, it is a testament to the depth of our ties that we stand here, not as relics of the past, but as architects of our shared future. I am pleased to accept Prime Minister Buzek's invitation to Russia extended by President Nemtsov, a nation whose history is interwoven with ours, and whose friendship has been a constant through the ebb and flow of time.

Let this moment be a celebration of our enduring friendship, a reaffirmation of our commitment to mutual understanding, and an exploration of the opportunities that lie ahead for our nations. May this visit further strengthen the bonds that bind us and pave the way for a future marked by cooperation, prosperity, and shared aspirations.

Thank you, Prime Minister Buzek, and to all present here, for joining us in this momentous occasion. May our shared history continue to guide us, and may our shared future be marked by even greater accomplishments"

"It is a pleasure to finally meet you in person Prime Minister Kuzmina. I hope that our meeting will result in a prosperous relationship that will extend a century into the future and will serve as an important anecdote when two nations whos complicated past have been overcome to create a bond that transcends normal relations between two countries," Minister Buzek stated poignantly as he offered his hand for his Russian counterpart to shake in front of all the cameras. "While the history of our 'socialist solidarity' may be told differently in our classrooms, it is my utmost desire to see that we both recognize the actions our people committed and attempt to move past this into an enlightened future."

Once in the meeting room, separated by the long oak table that would have hosted countless diplomatic processes prior to this one, Jerzy Buzek chose to sit directly across from his Russian counterpart, while the rest would sit across from their counterparts in uniform fashion.

"The sentiment is shared by me and my fellow Poles here in this room. I earnestly accept your heartfelt welcome and we would like to offer our own deep gratitude for the opportunity to visit your beautiful city.

Our two nations do indeed share a long, complicated history that extends even further than the the great world wars. We share over a thousand years of our two nations going between enemies to friends back to enemies. Our history is soaked into the battlefields of Europe and shared in the stories told at bars over drinks between friends. Much like those friends, there may be instances where we fight one another, we will always return easily to the friendship we once shared. Especially when it involves the stability and peace of Eastern Europe, and Europe as a whole.

I am pleased to accept the invitation on behalf of his Holy Majesty, King Stanislaus Grabowski, to visit Russia in an effort to further our diplomatic ties and increase the level of communication between our two great nations in an effort to further the safety and security of Europe from foreign agents who may seek to destabilize the region for their own gain. While we may not be relics of ages past, an architect must understand the foundation they are building upon before constructing their magnum opus. Which is what we are all participating in. This is our life's work. Our success here will be written into the world's civics lessons for all to learn from. Poland and Russia coming together out of friendship and building Europe into the epitome of democracy and a haven for the people of the world.

Thank you, Prime Minister Kuzmina, for your beautiful words and for being here as well. Working with Poland to insure the safety, security, and welfare of Europe's citizens and the future of the world is a worthy endeavor and one we are wholeheartedly committed to."

"It is our deepest pleasure to welcome Poland to their second home here in Russia. I am hopeful that our talks will reopen the door for deeper relations between our countries and the potential for strong bilateral relations. His Excellency, President Nemtovs, has emphasized the need for strong bilateral relations between our two nations.

It is the hope of this Government to achieve a robust, healthy, and durable bilateral relationship with Poland, and that this is the start of many conversations. I leave history to the Historians and the future to us. She said with a smile I am eager to begin discussing a number of items including trade, movement of people, economic cooperation,

I am hopeful that we can achieve the confidence to allow high-level sales of weapons including continuing ongoing aircraft sales and expand into submarines, armored vehicles, and other aircraft.

Additionally, we hope to create a free trade zone between our two countries, seek Polish investment into Kaliningrad to create a port for dual Polish-Russian use, to reduce difficulties for entry, visa waivers, and other socio-economic projects.

Lastly, I hope that we may create a strategic partnership to counter Western efforts to create hegemonic dominance over Europe. I am hoping that we can create a durable partnership that sees mutual benefit, long-term growth, and institutional continuation.

Are there areas which you hope to discuss?"

ManBear

 

[ManBear]

Jerzy would smile and nod along with the Prime Minister Valeriya Kuzmina as they spoke regarding the proposed deals. They had dealings with the prior administrations of Russia including an Empress. He was curious as to how long this administration would last within the confines of Russia. This made him naturally wary of any deals that would most likely become defunct once another administration took over the office of the Kremlin.

"These are all intriguing ideas to bring our two nations closer together. In the interest in insuring both of our citizens thrive in the modern world, I believe it is best to discuss the free trade zone as well as ways to reduce the difficulties for our citizens to pass through borders. Our nation is no stranger to visa-free travel and incentives for creating a working relationship between the people of the world. We also have a few ideas of our own that we would like to offer the Russian people that will assist in furthering technological advancement as well as the education of both of our people. Creating a port that would allow for dual Polish-Russian usage would certainly benefit the both of our peoples and our militaries. It would reduce the stress of joint operations by hosting training exercises between our naval and land forces within the region while also ensuring our citizens are able to thrive together in a strong work environment.

While I admire the goal of countering Western efforts to create a hegemonic dominion over Europe, I feel we must expand that to foreign dominance within the European Region with the rise of Thailand and their base within the Mediterranean. We often find them intervening in affairs that should be left to others to handle, more so now that they have considered themselves a world power on par with the United States and the United Kingdom.

We feel creating a partnership with the Federation of Russia will help Poland cement this protective bubble over Europe and assist in preventing outside regions from influencing regional politics. Instituting this partnership will not only assist in long-term growth of both of our nations but also assist in allowing Europe to maintain their regional authority without outside influence from western and eastern nations."

[Jay]

Kuzmina nodded as she listened, wondering herself, whether this Polish polity would survive the test of times or be brushed aside as so many before it had. Nonetheless, a believer herself of the potential for a Russo-Germanic-Ukrainian-Polish alliance that would restore balance in European affairs, she was eager to see this through.

"We definitely see the potential in these arrangements. Firstly on the matter of the visa policy...the Russian Government would like to propose language that will be sent to your office in the coming days.

In addition, we hope to sign as part of this arrangement an investment treaty to harmonize our economic environment as well as an extradition and police cooperation treaty

As for the creation of a joint port, we would like to see the proposed location as well as potential usage by both parties to assess its value for investment. However, Russia would also like to propose the creation of a joint Russo-Polish Army Brigade along with a joint air station in Poland. I hope you can take these proposals back to your government for review on their benefit.

Should the joint port be a feasible project then we would also be eager to establish a joint naval center at the port to develop and train both our sailors." She said with a pause as she looked over her notes supplied by her defense aides before folding it back down.

As far as it pertains to Thailand, I can confirm that the Russian Government is in agreement. I know that many in my government would be eager to see Thailand permanently removed from the Mediterranean. However, Russia does not agree that either the United Kingdom or the United States has any right to interfere in other nations' affairs. They are, just as Thailand is, all equally culpable for their invasive efforts of interference.

Nonetheless, there's no smoke without fire and to fight the fire you must be equipped with the resources. Russia must pick its battles and at this time it is not the era of strength from which we can act to push back against hegemonic domination. It is our belief that the most effective way to counter these efforts is multilateral cooperation with willing partners.

I agree with much of what you have said about a partnership with Russia. It is equally my hope for a partnership with Poland that can help us to remain truly free and independent nations. I hope we can continue these frank conversations and iron out the details of this partnership."

ManBear

 

[ManBear]

Jerzy nodded in agreement as his Russian counterpart spoke.

"Poland is delighted to see the language of the proposed bill that would encompass the new visa policy. Including articles that would establish an investment treaty, extradition, and police cooperation would be beneficial to both of our governments and assist in providing a safe region for our citizens to live.

As for the creation of a joint port, we would like to nominate the city of Vladivostok. It's location on the pacific would be beneficial for the Polish navy and commercial ships while also hosting a hub of the Trans-Siberian railroad would certainly boost tourism to the region and help boost the economy. It's location near China and Korea would also assist in boosting the economy of the region with the increase in trade goods flowing into the area from both Polish and Russian trade ties with the region. In regards to the Russo-Polish brigade and joint air station within Poland, these are something we would need to take into consideration. Many nations have asked for basing rights within Poland but all have been refused. We could potentially expand upon an existing base to allow the creation of such a unique opportunity for Russia but it would require equal investment on both parts to cement that we are equals in this partnership.

We are in agreement that the United States and the United Kingdom have no rights of interference within European affairs. I feel it would take pressure of the Russo-Polish-German-Ukrainian alliance from nations within Europe that are being utilized by these hegemonic nations for their own desires to fully remove them from the area.

While I am sure Poland's diplomatic efforts, if utilized wisely, could be successful eventually in removing these hegemonic nations from Europe, we are in agreement that it would be best utilized in conjunction with cooperation from willing partners, such as Russia.

Are there any requirements from Poland that Russia desires that would allow these plans of multilateral cooperation between our two great nations to continue to come to fruition?"

"I have provided some of the proposed language we would like to make for a potential agreement. I hope your office may review them and see if this is workable for your government. I am sure that the language will cover the visa, investment, extradition, and policing cooperation and agreements.

As for Vladivostok, I will definitely speak with our transport and defense ministries to see the potential in expanding Vladivostok to host Polish commercial and military ships.

For the Russo-Polish brigade, we are in agreement. A mutually invested brigade-level force made up of both our personnel is what we are hoping to achieve. We would like to propose the Russian Airborne regiment along with a tank regiment to make up the Russian contingent of the joint brigade. If this is something that would be of interest to you?

I am happy to hear that our sentiments are shared in Poland. It is our desire to build up this partnership and I am eager to see it come into fruition. I would actually love to hear the ways that you would like this multilateral arrangement can come to fruition for you and the Polish people.

[ManBear]

"Thank you. I will have my office review the documentation once we return to Poland and will have an answer to you soon. From a brief glance from myself, everything appears to be in order but it never hurts to be sure when it comes to a legal document such as this agreement. While we review the document, we will eagerly await the decision in regards to Vladivostok.

As for the Russo-Polish brigade, Poland's would like to propose two mechanized infantry battalions to coincide with the Russian Airborne Regiment and tank regiment. By utilizing Poland's modern experience with mechanized forces and Russia's experience utilizing their tanks and airborne troops, this brigade would be the envy of joint brigades everywhere. I'm sure their use in military exercises and training would prove invaluable to both of our armed forces.

With the implementation of the treaty, we feel it would allow Polish businesses and the tourism sector to explode. And by allowing the visa free travel, allowing Polish citizens to visit historic landmarks in Russia would allow Russia's own businesses and tourism sector to explode in a similar fashion. With the educational aspect of the agreement, we would like to see our scientific areas of expertise to grow and allow further research and development to expand and allow our scientists to truly increase the standard of living in both of our nations. By expanding upon our shared history and creating something good out of it, rather than beat each other up over past mistakes and actions, I feel it will show the world at large that even two nations who once did not get along can grow to become strong friends."

"I understand completely. Please take all the time you need to review these documents. My office will await your formal response and once we've received it we will submit it to our registry. I share your government's sentiments on the blossoming of bilateral relations. I hope that Russo-Polish ties will demonstrate how diplomacy will always pay more dividends than isolated hatred." Kuzmina said with a smile as she turned to her defense aide to read the node he provided her about Vladivostok.

"Insofar as Vladivostok is concerned, I can say we would approve civilian usage of the port. The military dimensions will require further study as my Government will need to consult Japan, Korea, and China to ensure that such a move is well-received. I would appreciate it if your government could lobby Korea and Japan to gauge their views on such a move." Kuzmina said as she turned a page in the binder in front of her. "I will defer to our military expects on this matter but I am sure that the proposal will be well received. I do think we would need to discuss where they would be stationed and financing if that is appropriate for your government?"

ManBear

 

[ManBear]

"Yes that is very appropriate for us. The first topic for discussion would be to whether utilize an already established base within the Polish interior or to establish a closer base to Kaliningrad, allowing you soldiers to easily visit a predominate Russian area should they wish it during set times of leave. While it would benefit both nations to utilize an already established base within Poland, I feel it would do great wonders for the morale of the Russian forces stationed there should that base be located somewhat close to the Polish-Russian border at Kaliningrad Oblast. One such place I think would benefit from the military base would be the Bezledy-Bagrationowsk crossing. There is ample royal land present that would require significantly less hassle in assigning to the base. If we were to establish a new base, my offer would be to split the cost of the construction fifty-fifty between our two peoples showing a common ground. The Polish Brigade of Engineers would handle the construction to cut down on the costs of labor and manpower, you could even offer the use of your own engineers to help build the base to further incentivize our forces to cooperate together. If an established base were to be chosen, I feel it would be best if the cost were to be shouldered sixty-forty with your nation holding the larger percentage of the share. Once again we would utilize the Brigade of Engineers to build the additions to the base to house the additional personnel, vehicles, expand key facilities such as motor pool, air bases, and logistical buildings such as the mess and headquarters.

Another key consideration, for my government, would be who was to be in command of this international brigade. What are your thoughts on the matter?

As for Vladivostok, we will gladly reach out to Japan and Korea as to their feelings on the matter to assist in the lobbying effort for both of our nations. We understand completely the concerns as to the neighbors in the east. As well as logistical concerns for the already established port and town."

Jay

 

[Jay]

Kuzmina nodded and listened as the Poles spoke before responding.

"I think the President would agree that utilizing an existing base is the most practical option. I believe it is only fair that we are prepared to accept your proposal for Russia to assume a larger financial share in this endeavor. In addition, I hope the Russian Army Corps of Engineers can assist with the construction. We think this supports our interests in expanding our defensive infrastructure to preserve Eastern Europe's sovereignty from encroachment by malicious powers.

Kuzmina looked at her notes before proceeding."As for my thoughts on the command structure for the international brigade, I would say that we’re open to further discussions on that topic. It’s important that we find a mutually respectable solution. As for the command structure, and perhaps to give a bit more insight into our goals, we would like this brigade to be a stepping stone for other neighboring countries such as the Baltic States, Ukraine, Belarus, and so forth to participate and join. Therefore I would like to suggest splitting operational and tactical commands. For strategic command, we would prefer a Russian officer while for operational command we would prefer a Polish officer. As for tactical command of brigade-sized elements, a rotating tactical commander along with a fair distribution of battalion command would be optimal.

However, I recognize you may need to confer with your government and I am prepared to listen to counterproposals. I am also pleased to note your willingness to engage with Japan and Korea concerning the Vladivostok issue. I trust that it will facilitate a positive outcome for us both. The Russian Federal Security Council will review the proposals at hand at the earliest convenience, I will be sure to relay any updates to you as soon as possible.

In addition, I would like to propose the development of a Russo-Polish partnership agreement. This agreement would formalize Poland's role as an equal member alongside Russia in defense procurement and other strategic areas, in exchange for Poland's investment into Russian defense infrastructure with no share ownership. This partnership could further enhance our collaborative efforts and strengthen our mutual defensive capabilities.

Lastly, I wanted to express our concern regarding recent developments involving Thailand. The actions of the Thai government have raised significant apprehension within our administration. President Nemtsov has indicated to me privately that he believes it may be required for a potential global intervention should the situation in Thailand deteriorate further. Our concerns rest on their irresponsible actions, breaking of diplomatic protocols, and hostile efforts to undermine Russia. I would appreciate your views and wisdom on this matter."

ManBear

 

[ManBear]

"We are in agreement then, in regards to the utilization of an already established base to house the joint brigade. It is our recommendation, then, to offer Braniewo's base for integration of Russian forces into the joint brigade. It's location close to the Baltic Sea and Kaliningrad Oblast offers the best level of support for logistics for your forces while also allowing them to have the capability of maintaining morale. We are not against the idea of the Russian Army Corps of Engineers to assist with the construction. It simply expands upon the idea of cooperation between our two nations and our militaries."

The representative would jot down notes on the pad of paper before continuing. "We are not opposed with the idea of other Baltic States joining in. It has long been a goal of Poland to unite the Baltic states into a common organization that promotes the advantages of the region while helping the ones that need it. We are not opposed to splitting the command elements evenly between our two nations that is something that would need to be discussed with higher ranked members of the Ministry of National Defense to understand the full situation. I can assure you that the MND will review the proposal and provide their viewpoint forthwith.

In regards to the Russo-Polish partnership agreement. We will require more information in regards to what being an equal member entails. Requirements for the Polish military and the like. While it is understandable to include the no share ownership stipulation, we would include the same on our end of the deal as well. I can certainly say the ability to have access to the Russian defense industry to help bring Poland into the 21st century is certainly appealing, we will still require additional information on what that entails and what requirements will be placed on Poland.

I figured Thailand would come up in this conversation at some point. While we are aware of tensions between Thailand and the rest of the world, especially between Thailand, Russia, and ROSOBORNEXPORT. While we can consider these irresponsible, I feel it would be remiss if I did not inquire as to the situations that fall under the breaking of diplomatic protocols and hostile efforts to undermine Russia.

Thailand has certainly been a thorn in our side before. We are currently looking for four missing Thai intelligence operatives that have been linked to the massive intelligence leak a few years ago. Classified documentation was disseminated to the general public and jeopardized Polish members of the armed forces and intelligence agencies that were undertaking an active mission in the Med."

"The use of Braniewo will be brought to the Federal Security Council however you can consider our tentative agreement to be the Green light for the use of the base." Kuzmina said gaining a nod from her Defense Attache, "I am happy that the Engineer Corps can be used to support the expansion of the base. Please let us know in advance the cost of the renovations so we can review the itemized expenses and dispense accordingly." Kuzmina said noting that down into the binder in front of her.

"Yes, please let me know what your military thinks of the proposal and then we can ink it out into a proper agreement. What we'd like is for Poland to continue to be a purchaser of Russian equipment, however, in addition to being a user, we'd be willing to offer the off the shelf products like nuclear-powered submarines, advanced artillery systems, the RATNIK warrior program, and other products in exchange for Poland making a five billion dollar contribution to the Russian Budget.

We'd also like to help Poland with its domestic defense industry and experts such as aerospace scientists and weapon manufacturers would be ready to assist Poland with research and development projects. I believe that the President would like to continue the long history our two nations have shared and use that to build a safer world for Eastern Europe. That starts with equal partnership." Kuzmina said with a smile as she then looked at a document provided by the foreign ministry.

"Thailand has...in recent days become more aggressive with its ideological convictions. They are looking for a scapegoat and Russia appears to be their punching bag. They seem to think they can get away with it, in a way that they wouldn't with the United States for example. Russia also offers a good anti-capitalist platform to rally their base." Kuzmina said looking at the report before having an aide hand it over to the Polish Prime Minister.

"This is of course a confidential memo however it details that the Deputy Prime Minister and her staff were harassed by Thai officials and nationals. In addition, they tried to storm the Minister's quarters with the intent of arresting her on made-up charges. The Thais were serious in their efforts to arrest the Minister and it was due to the threat of violence that they yielded.

If your intelligence agency would be willing to hand over the information they have on the four operatives, we will look to see if any Thai nationals match their profile in Russia or abroad that we are aware of. President Nemtsov has been briefed on these developments and I do not see our relations improving with them anytime soon." Kuzmina said with a shaking of her head like a disappointed school teacher.

[ManBear]

"I will have the relevant department within the Ministry of National Defense fax those numbers over to you as soon as they are tallied. Once we finalize these costs we will work with your Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Defense to coordinate the transportation of your Corps of Engineers to Braniewo as soon as possible so construction may begin.

As for the Russo-Polish Partnership in the defense sector, we can tentatively offer our own agreement to this prior to the transfer of funds. Such a large base purchase would require approval of His Majesty but I am sure he will see the overall effectiveness for Poland's armed forces to access the Russian 'catalogue' for defense procurement. Especially being able to utilize products like nuclear-powered submarines and other defense products. In regards to our domestic defense industry, I cannot dispute Russia's expertise in doing so. We have been a long time purveyor of Russian equipment but we have already taken a step into producing our own domestic equipment. Utilizing Russian experts and equipment in these products would save lots of time and money during these R&D events. We do have a question in regards to the partnership. Would Poland be able to produce this equipment ourselves or would we rely on Russian factories to produce the equipment. And if Poland is able to produce the equipment would there be any additional fees needing to be payed to the Russian Government for this right to produce the equipment?"

The Polish delegation would take a moment to read the memo and make comments to one another in Polish before rejoining the conversation.

Thailand has been a thorn in our side for some time now. But forsaking the GA Resolution on International Diplomacy and common decency like this is good for no one. Not Russia, Poland, or Thailand. But it does not come as a shock to us. They have informed us before that they don't regard GA resolutions as binding due to the complacency of the organization. Even as a sitting member of the organization. Having foreign diplomats and even the Deputy Prime Minister harassed in such a way is certainly a way to sour one's relations with a nation. In regards to the operatives, we can certainly pass on information gained from the operatives. And the information gained from the equipment we seized. That's the best we can do, however, for the time being."

One of the delegates would jot down a message in a cryptic shorthand that would help identify talking points during the meeting with the Council and the King of Poland.
