This press message was released by the Government of the Free and United Country of Kalistan.
Ladies and Gentlemen of the World,
It has been our pleasure as of late, to serve Kalistan as the Foreign Minister yet again. As I write there is a bill in the legislature which will replace me with a member of a different Party who was more successful in the recent elections than my Party was, and relegate me and my Party to role of Loyal Minority."
While we will do all we can to oppose the agenda of the current governing coalition, we will take this last opportunity to invite ALL states of the world to offer Kalistan various diplomatic agreements, as well as to sign on to the ones that we are signatories to. Our great state stands on a number of principles in the International realm. We stand for reciprocal trade, where what you give is what you get. We stand for radical non-intervention, and refuse to sign even toothless versions of mutual security pacts. We stand for radical pacifism, and refuse to become involved in interstate wars. And we promote both a NBC free world, as well as a world where recreational and medicinal drugs are trades as commodities of the same import as food, textiles and energy. Our boarders are wide open, we welcome all visitors and encourage them all to stay, we support the free movement of people and ideas between all countries of the world, and we stand for social justice and political independence.
All states who have a desire to associate with our Free and United Country are welcomed to approach our foreign office, and offer us any and all agreements that we would be able to endorse. It won't be long before the Socialists regain our rightful and traditional place in the Foreign Office, but in the meantime, our foreign office is still just as open for business under a different Party as it is under ours.
We welcome our new Foreign Ministry, held now by a member of Kalistan's Third Way Party, and fully encourage all foreign offices of Terra to do so as well.
Most Serenely,
Dade Johnson,
Outgoing (and retiring) Foreign Minister
Free and United Country of KalistanSigned,
the Government of the Free and United Country of Kalistan
