Prime Minister Constantino Sorantanali told reporters Friday he would make his first state visit to the United Kingdom of Azazia, followed shortly thereafter by a second state visit to Pacitalia's strongest ally, the Grand Duchy of Hamptonshire. Traditionally, Hamptonshire is the first nation to be visited, however, due to the recent internal strife caused by deposed ex-Regent Bernard Allenby, the Hamptonian visit has been delayed.
"The foreign ministry has been in talks with their Azazian counterparts for most of this week," Sorantanali said. "I also received a personal letter from Mr Tetley, the prime minister of Azazia, at my swearing-in ceremony, and was glad to hear they are just as anxious to engage in some form of visitation. The Pacitalian state visit to the United Kingdom will usher in a new wave of Pacitalian diplomacy.
The PM downplayed the Hamptonians' internal battles, saying "the Grand Duchy is now stable and calm. The trial of certain individuals is going ahead legitimately and according to the provisions set out by the Lord Protector, and I have absolutely no concerns at this time. I simply wish to delay our visit to Hamptonshire to allow them time to concentrate on these judicial matters."
He added: "My administration thinks nothing less of Hamptonshire now than it did before, and I would ask you all to do the same. Hamptonian officials are solving their country's issues admirably and efficiently."
At the press conference, Mr Sorantanali also chose to reach out to extremist nations Pacitalia has spurned in the past, offering them the opportunity to work to restoring relations. Specifically, he named Kaiser J.L. I, Shah Khosru III and Maximillian Kalba in his olive-branch speech.
"The very foundations of our ties with these states were set by the previous government and still exist," Sorantanali said. "Restoring our relations, at least to be friendly on a diplomatic level, is quite important for my administration, as I hope it is for them. There are nations who have been there beside us before, and we have let each other down. There are nations who we have been terribly unfair to, and it is our responsibility to rectify that."
Sorantanali pointed to the recent knighting of PdT leader Marco Quirinamo by the Roach-Busterian monarchy as a sign that Roach-Busters is warming to the idea of a restored friendship. "I know there will be certain figures, both past and present, on both sides of the border ready to get back to being friends again," he said.
