“Our third option is to become neighborly with the European Economic Community. Fortunately our ignoring of Germany's requests to not label their refugees as such has played out exactly as expected, and with our continued exportation of Natural Gas we can firmly state that we have an inroads with Europe "proper". This would do nicely for trade dealings, though how much influence this will give them over our economy as a whole is unknown. Still, it is our safest bet."

"Of course we could always just stay the course and attempt to legitimize ourselves to the rest of the world indirectly as we have been and not take any sort of risks. There is, however, one path that we can take alongside any of these options. The United Nations, of all people, have approached us and extended an invitation for observer status...if we agreed to deploy a company of Oskovian troops as UN Peacekeepers. Apparently we will be granted our own command over them, with some mandated Rules of Engagement and the like; the idea has already been floated by our command staff and most believe it will at the very least be an opportunity to allow at least some of our forces to become experienced in real combat if such occurs."

With that, Vanya rests in his seat and awaits the Council Committee's response.
