Prime Minister Riley Pettipas has reached a deal with National Salvation Military Council Chairman August Reinhardt to restore relations between Bekenial and Kivonia. The Prime Minister said he was happy to finally reach an agreement and was pleasantly surprised by Chairman Reinhardt's willingness to negotiate. He was however disappointed by the representatives from the National Rebel Forces who were seemingly unwilling to budge on almost anything. Because of that, PM Pettipas told the RoD that their government in exile must cease all operations on Hutorian soil effective immediately. The full details of the agreement between Bekenial and Kivonia are as follows:
1. The NSMC and HOC enshrine religious freedom in the constitution.
2. The NSMC and HOC remove the need for the dictator's approval for a political party to be created and the requirement that they be a part of the NSMC or HOC.
3. The NSMC and HOC allow Hutori to send observers to the next 3 general elections in Kivonia to ensure their legitimacy.
Hutori has agreed to officially recognize Chairman Reinhardt as the Dictator and legitimate Head of State of Kivonia and both sides agreed to work towards reopening their diplomatic and economic relationship.
Prime Minister Pettipas sits down with HBC for an interview.
"I've spoken with my colleagues in cabinet and we are pleased with the agreement that has been reached. We have ensured political and religious freedom for the people of Kivonia and have created a strong working relationship with Chairman Reinhardt. Hutori and Kivonia must have a strong partnership and we look forward to rebuilding our relationship with our neighbours."
