PRESIDENT RESPONDS TO JELBIC TAUNTS
Presidential Palace, July 17 5358: ZLATENICO OKO asked President Valentin Hovicky what would be our response to the the Jelbek Khanate’s accusations, and he resplied:
Well, we have tried twice to talk to them both in diplomatic correspondence and responding in the media but the result is the government of the Jelbek Khanate feels we condescend to it, belittle it, threaten it and lie to it. Going down the same road looks unproductive to us. Fortunately, an alternative has been provided.
The Jelbek Khanate has selected a protector that can serve as an intermediary. Should we have any actual business we will talk to the Beiteynuese Medinat about it. We have never had any difficulty communicating with the Foreign Office of that nation.
And as a matter of fact there is something to talk about which could benefit the people of all three economically. We will broach that subject with the intermediary. But keep our expectations low.
Should the Sovereign State of the Jebek Khanate have anything it actually wishes to reach us directly concerning, unless and until our Ambassador is expelled, she is available to receive and forward any such message.
