[OOC: Ottoman Khaif's contributions are bolded]

The dark spectre of war hung over France and the Ottomans. Tensions over inflammatory comments and possible courses of action aggravated what was already a bad sore. Attempted assassination of an Ottoman leader in the Imperial Union, as well as the coming of a new, more authoritative Emperor, did not help matters.

But there was one last chance.

Marian Levitte slowly entered. His eyes were slightly blackened from the long night without sleep, and he carried with him a clumbsy briegcase. He had not enjoyed the last few nights, but perhaps this could give him some peace. He made his way throug hthe building into the conference room, where he would represent the Imperial Union to the Grand Vizier.

Marian entered into the conference room and look to the Grand Vizier respectfully and nodded his head and waited to be acknowledged.

Grand Vizier Mehmed Pasa Sokollu, second in command of the Ottoman Empire. He was not happy with the thought of another cold war with another nation. The Ottoman People were tired of war and wanted peace. Yet they were still willing to fight for the protection of the state.

"Should we began this meeting now..or do you wish to get your thoughts in order first?" ask the Grand Vizier

"I am fine, Grand Vizier, I just need your acknowledgement."

"Well, enovy of NE...lets us began this meeting in the hopes of peace."

He nodded and sat, placing his briefcase on the table. "I am here to hear the lamentation of the Ottoman government. I must know what troubles you about the government of the Union."

"What troubles us about the new government of your union...mainly the rumors that are going around that you government is planing to attack Ottoman Al-Andalus, this rumor is making my government very very uneasy.Frankly we don't give a damn what your nation does inside its lands,but to attack or start rebellion in our lands..we do give a damn about it."

"Iberian interests are a minor element of the government. A sizable population of the Nationalist Party comes from Catalanese exiles in Andorra and Southwest France on the border with Al-Andalus. These are just rumors, we do not plan to attack Iberia."

"That's one of the factors which is not setting too well with those in the Government, the fact these nationalist...are so close..makes us more uneasy."

"Do you expect us to deport, or remove these people? We have found no paramiltiary or possibile violent organizations coming out of these Catalanese communities."

" Ah I see...beware if anything from terrorism comes from these communities that's attack the Ottomans holdings,we will hold your governmemt for any damages."

"Why are we being held responsible for possible acts of terrorism that are not related to our government?"

"Their in your land and therefore you must make sure they behavor and pervent terroist group from froming."

"If any terrorist group in your land had been formed, should we hold you accountible? Remember, we protected Mrs. Sophia Bin Bashir from the Byzantine Liberation Movement, a movement that came out of your nation."

"True...but bear in mind the BLM was just mainly up of Fabusist supporters."

"As the Catalanese extremists are mainly Franco supporters. We do not fund them, unlike the Fabuses. We have no connection to any of these possibilities."

"I belive you..now the next subject..I belive the alliance between our nation...is dead in the water."

"I understand this as well."

"But we could still have a NAP between our nations, at the very least."

"We would very much appreciate this. The spectre of war hangs over us, especially as the Soviet Unions loom over us, with their accusations of Nazism."

"Soviets have bad feelings to any form of Fascism. do to the WW2.."

"We understand, but for them to go to war over it we find to be irrational, and dangerous to our security. We see the misunderstanding between the philosophy of our State and Fascism, but we can assure you that Fascism operates on a different model of government."

"Try explaning that to them...well then..another issue that's annoy the Bashir family...its about Sophia and her childern..mainly about their safely.."

"The Parisian Templar are caring for her safety. Unfortunately, the incident that happened was outside our jurisdiction."

"I see.."

"And the finally issue thats a key stone of this cold war...my ministers and Viziers from IA(Islamic Americas) are uneasy with rumors of attack on one of their sub dominions know a Viceroyalty of Argentina."

"The Prime Minister, Boris Clouseau, suggested it at a press conference. I can tell you that the Emperor has personally told me that it is not worth the risk, and was not even worth considering."

"What of these rumors of a new annex most of North America, in the name of NE.."

"Well Enovy?"

"We wish to expand Acadia and Louisiana to further colonial interests. This is not most of North America, it is a solidification of our position.

"Ah, I see."

"Well then so have we agree to a NAP?"

"Indeed."

"Good, is there anything else that we needs to be discuss at the moment?"

"Is there any other issues you would like to discuss?

"No, I belive our nations can have our forces to stand down, since we are no longer at war footing

"We are still suspicious of the motives of the Soviet Unions, so we will stay at alert, but no mobilized."

"Very well, I am please that we could work out a peace beween our nations."

"As am I. Thank you" Marian extends his hand.

The Grand Vizier extend his to shake Marian. Thus, a temporary peace was achieved, and the Cold War ended shortly before it had erupted.
