Minister Ward, we understand the situation. Internal matters must always take precedence, for the sake of stability and necessary authorizations in place to ensure that the final treaty, as negotiated, may even be honored. I'm glad to hear that things are settled, and that the recent election of President Stone has proceeded smoothly.

With that said, I believe that we are in a position to agree on a final document. Attached is our proposal—let us know what you think.
