OOC: The problem with insisting on saying this meeting taking place seven years ago is we can't talk about anything relevant. We can't talk about Nova Terra taking over Hobrazia because it doesn't happen for another three years, we can't talk about Lodamon extending its blockade, and if I was being entirely realistic I would have to take a very different approach to both Barmenistans neighbours, since I've changed foreign relations since then.
Whatever, I think it's a very flawed system, but I'll go along with it so long as everyone can agree that from now on we accept who a government selects as Ambassador; I don't want to waste half the next meeting as well just trying to choose a representative.
