"Thank you ladies and gentlemen for coming to the summit. I know we've all been waiting a while for this summit to get here so that we can fully transition away from the AII and settle any the small issues which have arisen." Says the Kaiser as he and the Hetaman of The cossack hetamanate shake the hand of each of the guests.

"On behalf of all of us I would also like to thank Hetaman Olglock for proposing this summit and for offering his home as the location for it."

"Now let us enter this beautiful building and get down to work."

Hetaman Olglock leads the various leaders and representatives of the different nations to a large meeting all with a large, ornate round table with enough seats for everyone, each seat is labelled with the name of the respective nations and there are several pitchers of ice water and crystal glasses as well as platters of snacks such as cookies should anyone attending the summit get hungry.

"Thank you Hetaman Olglock." Says the Kaiser as he and the others sit down.

"Now I figured that it would be easiest and make the most sense if we went through the AII by how it is divided. That way we aren't all talking over each other. So Vostag will go first, then Velkisa, then Hedra, and then Sovern." Says the Kaiser as he pulls out some papers.

"Here is a copy of the AII just so we can all understand what we're talking about." Says the Kaiser passing copies of the AII around the table as well as to the observers.

"Now the trade aspect of things isn't really an issue. We can discuss that all day long any day of the week. I have here trade proposals for each of the Aoerian nations excluding Ast Wal and Kelvenir which already have bilateral trade deals with Vostag. Now we can discuss these here if you like or we can discuss them more privately later it's up to your respective nations.

Vostag would like to continue trade with each of your nations and expand trade to include all of you. I feel the trade proposals are a pretty fair exchange of goods. It has the standard stuff which can be found in all of Hyperborea's trade deals. Talks about trade, settling any issues between us by trying to talk it out first, and of course the standard defense pact. Pretty standard stuff. Diversity in the market place is the sign of a healthy economy. Opening our nations to each other will expand markets for both of us. There is no reason why both our boats can't rise with the high tide of booming trade.

However if you don't want to trade then that is fine, I respect your decision, and the trade proposal will stand as a standing offer to your nation should you ever change your mind."

"I have one more thing I need to discuss with you about Vostag's portion of this once we settle the this bit about trade." Says the Kaiser to inform everyone while he waits for the responses.

IC: "I apologize, but at this time we are not interested in establishing trade with your nation." Emir Masa Mami sincerely informs, with modest compassion.
