The United Republic appreciates the response of Brazil despite its lateness. We will open our shores to Brazilian Ambassadors once more and the persona non grata lifted, however we would ask that the Brazilian government take more care with their words and stance towards not only European Nations as well as American Nations. It is the right and sovereignty of the nations of the Grenadine and Argentine Confederations to ally with whom they will. Europe is not a devil to be viewed with mistrust.
Now, turning towards the Orient, as I look over the reports of the East...I find myself appalled at the incompetence shown by the previous Administration. The mobilization of such an enormous Chinese army is truly a threat to the stability of the Orient. Therefore, in the interest of stability and peace, we hereby demand that China downsize their forces and are to only maintain a functioning army of no more than 400,000 troops. We consider the numerous Chinese forces to be a threat to the stability of the Orient and our interests there.
