Syracuse
Kingdom of Nicosia
It was only the second or third time Nicosia was invited to host the alliance council of the European Defence Federation. It wasn’t so much due to their qualms with the larger EDF members building air and naval bases on their small island state. Catering the delegations of almost a dozen leaders was relatively expensive, especially for a nation of Nicosia’s size. Nonetheless, the Nicosians had done their very best and successfully prepared the ground for the EDF top brass’ three day long stay in their capital of Syracuse. The conference itself would take place at the kingdom’s national parliament, whilst the delegations were split two à piece via the capitals’ various top-notch hotels and/or their own embassies. Because Franken’s diplomatic mission was too small to entertain Ministerpräsident Graf Peter Solms and his delegation, they took a whole floor at the local Conrad Luxury Hotel.
The Franconians had arrived a few hours before the state banquet King Alexander IV would treat his high-ranking guests tonight. The next morning they would kick off the summit. Only in the afternoon of the third day a press conference was scheduled. Of course the outer rims of the security belt would be crowded with tv and press teams nonetheless. Graf Solms was glad the Nicosian security forces were assisted by the neighbouring Eiffellander and Lorrainese security services to ensure a safe and private meeting. Left to their own devices, Nicosian police would be given a run for their money by anti-EDF spooks, pesky press people and many more annoying guys.
The meeting’s agenda was broad and large. It had been carefully discussed by the EDF nations’ envoys beforehand.
By convention the opening statements were made by the leader of the respective host nation.
