Subject: Normalisation of bilateral relations
Classification: Α1 - Top Secret

To the attention of the honourable Ambassador.

To whom it may concern,

Following the announcement of Serenierre's willingness to deport the Pelasgian journalists currently in Serenirrese custody following a reduced sentence, instead of executing them, the Pelasgian Empire has looked rather favourably upon the prospect of a normalisation of relations between itself and the People's Republic. Indeed, as a number of statements on both sides can attest to, we believe this wish to be mutual.

In light of this, I have been instructed by His Imperial Majesty's Government to contact you about the possibility of secret talks for the normalisation of relations between our two countries. While the Empire would not officially start this process in public until the journalists are released, as per its commitment to its allies who are also engaged in an exchange of sanctions with Serenierre, I believe it would be best for the process to start in secret before this time, to allow for a more coordinated, mutual and effective restoration of relations, as per a bi-lateral agreement, once the Pelasgian nationals are released.

I eagerly await your response.

Yours sincerely,

Polykarpos Eustathiou Klimes

Ambassador of the Pelasgian Empire in Chagny, Bourgogne

Subject: Normalisation of bilateral relations
Classification: Top Secret

To the attention of the honourable Ambassador.

To whom it may concern,

The People's Republic is committed to ensuring a normalisation of diplomatic ties between it and the Empire. Thus, it is essential to commence a back channel effort to negotiate the terms of normalisation. It is essential that on the date of the release of the Pelasgian individuals convicted on espionage charges, all diplomatic issues which remain outstanding between Serenierre and Pelasgia and any other third parties which took sides in our diplomatic disagreements agree to remove the sanctions as a collective. The suggestion of keeping all such matters of the back-channel secret is also in accordance with the wishes of the Villesen government.

Additionally, as a goodwill gesture, it would be much appreciated if the Pelasgian Government would recognise the Confederation of Borovanger as the true representatives of the Borovangerese people. This would be an appropriate measure in light of the fact that Generalissimo Sérazin directly intervened and showed tremendous clemency to the Pelasgian individuals. We would like to inform the Pelasgian Government that the Confederation of Borovanger has the tacit support of Bourgogne and Engellex as well. And the Confederation is not a communist or leftist puppet state as the propaganda of some states may allege is the case. Your good self is at liberty to confirm these facts from the representatives of the Dulwich or Chagny Governments.

However, following the initial normalisation of ties, it must be understood that following the scale of the disturbance that was caused by the sanctions, continued efforts will need to be made to help keep the ties improving to a reasonable level.

To the attention of the honourable Ambassador.

To whom it may concern,

The willingness of Serenierre to negotiate a normalisation of the relations between us is admirable and worthy of praise. While a total restoration of formal ties in a mere two weeks' time might seem ambitious, we might certainly achieve through our cooperation. As a first step, which would aid both of us in negotiating, the Empire would propose the exchange of envoys between our governments, so that we might be able to negotiate and communicate directly, as well as permitting a basic flow of non-military and non-sensitive goods between our countries, such as basic foodstuffs and commercial or manufactured goods.

His Imperial Majesty's Government continues to be committed to the protection of traditional monarchies across Europe, and is thus more inclined to supporting the local monarchist factions in Borovanger, but has so far not recognised any single faction in the conflict in that country as a legitimate government. As our Burgundian allies seem to approve of the Confederation of Borovanger being the government of their neighbouring country, the Empire would have no issue with recognising it. We would also like to thank the Generalissimo for his initiative in releasing our citizens from custody.

Of course, we understand and agree that formal, let alone informal, ties between our countries might not be fully restored to their previous state for a rather lengthy period of time until after the release of the journalists, and that continuous work will be needed to maintain healthy relations between our countries.

Yours sincerely,

Polykarpos Eustathiou Klimes
