Minister of Foreign Affairs Richard Sommerfelt is expected to visit the Democratic Republic of Aloria, signalling a big to broker relations with nations amid a foreign policy shift orchestrated by Statsminister Ingebretsen. Ingebretsen, immediately after ordered the withdrawal of Kazulian personnel from the al-Najd protectorate, re-organized the foreign policy of the Kingdom to one that would spread peace and cooperation (how it was originally supposed to be). The Democratic Republic of Aloria has always maintained an unofficial friendly diplomatic relationship with the Kingdom of Kazulia. The visit comes amid Ingebretsen gradually removing the kingdom from its aggressive tenancies, withdrawing it to its original lines during his first tenure as Statsminister. Sommerfelt has promised to keep the visit strictly to business as he intends on proposing a free trade agreement between the two countries.
Many political scientists are saying that the visit would mark the redressing of the Kingdom of Kazulia's foreign policy especially towards intervention and diplomacy. They say that Ingebretsen has always promoted the principles of diplomacy over conflict, thus bringing many to the conclusion that he does not intend on compromising on these principles which he has been following for his entire political career. As such Sommerfelt intends on fixing the diplomatic image of the Kingdom of Kazulia from an aggressive state to one that promotes the principles of peace and champions the causes of freedom, democracy and common interest. Sommerfelt stated that he does not intend on creating an image of the Kingdom of Kazulia which was previously made by previous Statsministers and their cabinets, he intends on transforming the nation's soft power through diplomacy and trade.
The State visit will be the first time a Kazulian government official has ever visited the Democratic Republic of Aloria in more than one hundred (100) years and work mark the beginning of the implementation of Kazulia's "re-engagement" foreign policy. Apart from this Statsminister Ingebretsen is currently jointly organizing a trade deal with the Zardic Federation and the Republic of Lourenne. These moves are expected to re-engage the state with both its neighbors and foreign partners.
