The Soviet State of Hrstrovokia has struck a deal with the Federation of KommelianBerg to transfer Thrace in western Turkey over to Hrstrovokian administration.

Negotiations on the venture, which have been going on secretly for many months until last night when we recieved word from President Karr of his agreement, and so I approached the Secretariat to siphon off 3.5 Trillion Gil in funding for the appropriation of Thrace.

The deal will see 3.5 Trillion Gil, 90 Million Tonnes of Iron and 250 Million Tonnes of Uranium going into the hands of KommelianBerg, with a guarentee of market privilege in Hrstrovokia for KommelianBerg export products, and mineral and fishing rights over the Black Sea and Bosphorus go their way too.

In return, Thrace will now be integrated into the Soviet State as the 9th constituent republic. Control of this vital strip of land on the edge of the European continent will allow Hrstrovokia passage from the Black sea through the Bosphorus to the Aegean, Mediterranean and Atlantic. We believe that in the interests of our economy, unchallenged travel through these areas is unquestionable, and as a major member-state of SocAlComm, allow the HAF to participate in it's operations world-wide.

I will travel to Istanbul, the new adminstrative capital of Thrace to meet my counterpart President Karr in a formal exchange of power and witness at hand the celebrations as the Soviet State expands eastwards.

I can confirm this. Hrstrovokia will now control Western Turkey, with total jurisdiction over the Bosphorus and Darndenelles. In return, we will recieve 3.5 Trillion Gil in compensation and considerable quantities of iron and uranium, which we require for our own 'projects'. Hrstrovokia will give priority to KommelianBerg imports in the areas of Infortmation Technology, Car Manufacturing and Textiles. KommelianBerg Government and Military forces will depart Western Turkey within a week, allowing for a smooth transition of power. Those citizens of the Federation who do not wish to remain in Western Turkey will be relocated to anywhere of their choosing within KommelianBerg.
