NOWOGARD - Government of Valruzia has announced its long-term aims in the sphere of international relationships with other nations in Seleya. Ministry for Foreign Defense released a document which constitutes an official policy of the government for the upcoming 25 years. The main and most important goal of the policy will be to re-establish the Seleyan Union as a community of peace-loving, democratic nations which coexist within the frames of a single market and mutual respect for multicultural diversity of the continent. The government wants Valruzia to be the motor of the new wave of integration in Seleya as more and more internal instabilities and a near outbreak of civil wars looms over Kalistan which once was the engine of the economic integration of the continent. It is certain that Valruzia will set off to convince other nations to join and to promote the Seleyan Union. However, Nowogard admits that the old Union is in an urgent need for structural reforms and tightening the cooperation on all levels from political through economic to the social level.
As the document admits the process will be long-lasting and extremely difficult to conduct as reluctance and sometimes the inability to notice the positive effects of the integration by the national legislatures and governments effectively slow down the process of economic and political integration. The vision of sharing their competences with the supranational body causes Seleyaskeptic parties to call for its dissolution as it endangers the sovereignty of their nation. However, the MFA in its document points out that never in the history of the SU and its treaties, the sovereignty of any nation was put at risk and that nations within Seleya should be an example for the rest of Terra in terms of respect for peace, democracy, and human rights.
In the same document, MFA calls for fast and complex solutions allowing for even greater integration. Nowogard wants to establish a customs union in Seleya which would allow creating a truly common market with no borders for goods, services, and finances. Nowogard wants all the current nations that are member states of the SU and all other Seleyan Nation which are willing to join the reformed Union to sit together and work on a new set of treaties and documents regulating the issues of the free flow of goods, services, finances and possibly citizens. It has been a centuries-old goal of the Party of National Coalition and the Liberal Party to establish the 'Seleyan Citizenship' which would give citizens of the Seleyan Union additional set of protection. For example in a scenario when a citizen of one member states remain on the territory of a non-SU state which his/her country of origin is not represented by an embassy or consular office, according to Nowogard, embassy or consulate/consular office of any other member state should take care of the SU citizen in a way that it would take care of its own citizens.
As stated above the process will be long-term and difficult to conduct but the MFA has already announced that it will look for support for its new ideas in Valruzia's closest neighbors. The MFAs delegation will visit Baltusia, Lodamun, Tukarali, and Lodamun. Together with the discussion on the new ideas for the future of SU, Nowogard wants to discuss the instabilities in Kalistan. Nowogard for over a year now has been closely monitoring the situation in Kalistan but only recently engaged in the situation with an official ultimatum issued to the Government of Keymon which wanted to implement its own government in Vrassa on a small part of territories forming the peacebuilding operations managed by the small nation of Keymon. Valruzia saw it as an act of aggression on the sovereign state of Kalistan and a move which would only incite the tensions in the URK further.
An undisclosed source confirmed that Nowogrd is planning to engage in the crisis and commit itself to find a working solution to bring back peace and stability in Kalistan. The current situation in Kalistan is extremely complex and an outbreak of civil war is at the horizon. Literally, anything may spark the further escalation of the crisis. Currently, fleets of Valruzia, Kazulia and Vanuku patrol the international waters around Kalistan and territorial waters of Kalistan to monitor the situation and act as a deterrent for further escalation of the crisis.
According to an analysis made for the Seleya Daily, it lays in the very best interest of Nowogard to invest in surrounding markets and to pursue the establishment of a single, common market as the current situation, if not addressed properly, may lead to negative consequences for the Valruzian economy. Valruzia being the most advanced country in Seleya, with an average GDD per capita of over LOD 3.400 and attractive work conditions, is the main destination of economic immigration in Seleya. The MIA report shows that in 4523 there were 2.4 million economic immigrants which is 0.3 million more when compared with the 4522. According to economists if Valruzia will not address the economic situation in Seleya it may face a rapidly growing number of economic immigrants with more than 5 million foreign citizens looking for work in Valruzia by 4530.
