[ Empress Esfir Diba ]: "Yes, the current situation regarding alliances, partnerships and such are very interesting for sure. I am not sure if you're aware of what the Iranian policy was like in the 1960s. It was to charm and dominate, Your Majesty. My vision of Iran is that of the 1960s, what many refer to as the Golden Age. My country tried to give the rest of the Middle East a golden age through MECO but fundamentally, when it collapsed, the rest of the Arab tribes decided to join together, forget about MECO and what it brought. It is a saddening view of what is going on but my policy will be simple and transparent, Your Majesty and I gather that you might have certain proposals regarding the current situation? Proposals which I am very much willing to listen to."

King al-Saud::

_{"I am proposing that collectively Riyadh and Tehran ensure the establishment of a peaceful, prosperous order in the Middle East. Iran is the economic backbone of the region with Saudi Arabia right behind it. Collectively, we have the most modern military forces in the region with endless capabilities. Saudi Arabia is the world's largest possessor of natural gas and oil deposits as we produce over 14 million barrels a day. Riyadh and Tehran are the sole proprietors of security and stability in one of the most lucrative, and strategically important maritime chokepoints for global trade: The Persian Gulf. Saudi Arabia also possesses the holiest cities for Muslims as you know while Iran operates as a secular political bastion. Saudi Arabia and Iran are two sides of the same coin and that cannot be ignored at all. Granted, Saudi Arabia is Arab; however, the recent actions of countries such as Egypt is quite worrying to Riyadh as we wish not for Arab Nationalists to be in a position to dictate the economic and security arrangements of the Middle East, let alone the Arab World. We are two poles wanting the same thing: enrichment and prosperity. This is the position we have been forced into and this is the avenue of approach I am seeking with Iran. This benefits you as well as myself."}

We could be unstoppable, and not just in the Middle East but the whole of Asia should we...should we unite our cause in a collective pact of some sort. Each side has something the other lacks, something that can bring us closer to what we want. Yes. I believe a pact between Saudi Arabia and Iran should be formed. One that makes sure the Middle East is secure between us and one that allows us to conquer Asia herself, as well."

King al-Saud::

_{"I firmly believe that this Riyadh-Tehran Pact or whatever official name that is to be placed on this agreement is what the Middle East needs in order to get back on track. Now speaking of which, I think the first priority is joint maritime security cooperation in the Persian Gulf as this is not just for the both of us but the world. It is essential that our interests remain aligned to maximize our potential in growth across all industries and fields. In addition to joint maritime security cooperation, I am willing and ready to have Saudi Arabia's markets and economy to open to Iran so long as Iran is ready, committed, and prepared to allow the same to occur."}

Paseo wrote:

[ Empress Esfir Diba ]: "Yes. Such martime security cooperation is needed. Our Vessels are also present in the Arabian Sea and the Red Sea and I believe same security can be made there. Secondly, due to our countries being part of MECO our markets are already ready for one another so I believe that will be an easy way of markets going about."

King al-Saud::

_{"I am most gracious to have your cooperation. Is there anything that Riyadh can do for Tehran in the current moment while I am here?."}

Paseo wrote:

[ Empress Esfir Diba ]: "There is one thing, Your Majesty. There are many people who have families in Persian Gulf States and many of those there have families in Iran, I believe it'd be beneficial if the Persian Gulf States and Iran remained in a free movement agreement, should Saudi Arabia like to join I'm open to it as well."

King al-Saud::

_{"Yes absolutely. I think that would be a rather more preferred way of maintaining stability and tensions in the Persian Gulf. The free movement agreement can remain regarding the Gulf States and I would like to see that free movement agreement expanded to include all of Saudi Arabia and all of Iran to ensure productive economic, social, and cultural relations."}

Since the turn of the 21st Century, Turkish presence and investment has been well received in The Galla, and now the nations are drawn ever closer with this new alliance. News of the alliance came on the heels of other important Sultanate-Empire news — the completion of a Spaceport which began construction in 2020. From this port, Turkish & Gallans will be capable of launching rockets for space missions. The spaceport is just one example of the fantastic development that Somalia has seen since it's integration with the Gallan Empire.

Khartoum, The Republic of Sudan
March, 2024 - Blessings And Curses, Sudan's Mid-20s Foreign Policy

The fall of the Middle East Co-operation Organization (MECO) with Iran's departure had probably hit Sudan the hardest among its members as the largest form of economic, political, and social development platform to the region and to the country had been dissolved leaving Sudan aimless and blind for its future. For a brief moment under the leadership of Shah Pahlavi, Prime Minister Salva Kiir had attempted to reinstate Sudo-Iranian relations with a visit to Doha only for it to return to a state of uncertainty with the outbreak of the War of Petals in Iran and the take over of Empress Esfir Diba had left the nation stunned once again. However despite the debate and question on which side Sudan should supper Empress Esfir had found herself to be popular among the Sudanese people, especially those who still have the memory of Nageeb's Sudan fresh in the mind remembering the era of women's rights, power, and feminism in the middle east and in Sudan. This increasing public support for the Iranian monarchy had caused many members of the Sudanese Parliament to officially call for supporting the Monarchy and the normalization of relations between Sudan and Iran as Prime Minister Kiir promised.

Other developments in the region had however left a sense of concern and sorry in the Sudanese nation once again. Tensions in the middle east could be felt and sensed by the Sudanese leadership which has then called for an urgent meeting. Iran's fight for its legitimacy, the newly sparked ambitions of the Saudi Monarchy, the daring actions of Turkey, and the desperate need of regional power in Egypt have left the Sudanese nation feel the result of the collapse of a peace loving stable union of nations called MECO.

Sudan has plans to keep the economy rising. Trade agreements will be quickly revived with nations like Japan, China, Galla, and the European Union. As well as the former member states of MECO. The Liberal Party has announced plans and ambitions to expand progressive and social agendas for the Republic. What Sudan however currently lacks in MECO's absence is the security of the nation. The Non-Aggression Pact signed between Sudan and Galla some few Decades ago have proven very useful in maintaining peace a security between Khartoum and Addis Ababa. However other security concerns have poped up with the protection of the organization. Though the situation in Zaire seemed to have calmed down, along woth the end of the War in Chad in sight. The Sudanese leadership had noticed that it is in need of repairing and normalizing relations with the French Republic to which the Prime Minister had protested stating that it might cause him his re-election. However the death of Bashir along with the collapse of MECO seemed to have grabbed the attention of the public away from anti-French sentiment. On the other side of the Red Sea, increasing activity from the Arab kingdom had also concerned the leadership with the annexation of the Gulf States. However Riyadh was not the issue in the eyes of Sudan. It was the warned superiority complex of the Arab race that Sudan had long dreaded for 24 years. The sudden flaring of tensions between Memphis, Riyadh, and Ankara had left Sudan extremely worried for its own national security. Sudan's role with the MEDC along with its personal relationship with its brethren in Egypt had questioned if the curse of being placed right in between of the centers of Islamic and Arab cultures on the Red Sea could be broken. Though Sudan is blessed with being somewhat distant and enforcing the ideology that the Sudanese nation belongs to no "superior" race, the nation is also cursed being on the frontier of the clash of middle eastern giants. A number of Sudanese Parliamentarians had already considered complete isolation from the middle east in favour of adopting its Pre-MECO western foreign policy by building better and close relations with the European Union, United States, Brazil and La Plata.

Either way it is unkown what exactly Sudan's foreign policy game would be in the middle of the 2020s but it is clear that Sudan prefer descalation of tensions as well as maintaing a regional peace. Sudan had called on Egypt and Saudia Arabia to talk their issues out instead of playing a dangerous geo political game that could put us all at harm.

Prime Minister Kiir had also announced that Khartoum would be open for any and all talks of peace and co-operation in region and states that Sudan would look forward to working together with its neighbours. Following the statement Prime Minister Salva Kiir had announced that he would be leaving the nation for an official visit of Empress Esfir Diba of Iran in the hopes that both nations would reach and understanding of their relationships.

Subsidies for Electric Cars and New Environmental Policy.

| TOKYO, Mar 15th — With the Climate Summit held in Tokyo earlier this month, where world leaders pointed out solutions for reducing CO2 — such as increasing the use of renewable energies and reducing polluting energies such as oil, coal, among others. Japan announced during the Climate Summit that it would strongly increase nuclear power along with renewables, something Suga had already said in March 2023, when it was confirmed that the new projection for nuclear power production in Japan would be 28.3% in 2030. The Prime Minister Suga also confirmed subsidies for automakers such as Toyota, Honda, Suzuki, Nissan, Subaru and Mitsubishi to increase the production of electric cars, encouraging the purchase of these cars — as it was also said that the tax on these vehicles will be reduced by 6%. "This change is part of my New Environmental Policy "Green Japan" [...] If we all work together, we will build a sustainable world," said Suga. |

_{| President Sisi | "But, we still definitely have some tensions. I'm personally not really a fan of the new government, but it is what it is. I realized, that we do have shared interests. The Red or the Erythrean Sea is one area of contention, but together we can achieve much more. In my opinion, an actual total war between us is pretty unlikely with my mutual defense treaty with the Paramericans, and same thing with the Saudis. But a cold war between is for certain."}

| Once Prime Minister Kiir arrived in Tehran, he would of been escorted quickly to the Golestan Palace for the meeting with Empress Esfir Diba. Once going past the large defended gates of the Golestan Palace, the Prime Minister would be escorted out of the limousine and into the Golestan Palace, going through the golden corridors of the political centre of Iran as of today. Soon after, the aids would guide him to the cabinet. As he entered the doors closed and Empress Esfir would stand up. Wearing a long purple dress, with a white scarf interwoven through it, purple high heels, and her hair in a beautiful bundle with a beautiful golden necklace, she would smile slightly offering her hand for a handshake before gesturing the Prime Minister to take a seat. |

[ Empress Esfir Diba ]: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr Kiir."

The Prime Minister as always Wears a black suit with a blue shirt and a red tie and his iconic black cowboy hat gifted to him by former U.S. President George W. Bush. He never leaves Sudan without it. However he would take it off as a sign of respect when meeting the Empress before putting it back on as he extends his smile with biggest of smiles

PM Salva Kiir :| "You look wonderful your majesty it is my pleasure to meet you as well. Technically I am the first Sudanese Prime Minister in office to step foot on Tehran so really the pleasure is all mine"

After the Saudi prince's opening comments, the chief Indonesian delegate to the conference, a surprisingly young girl who now headed the National Climate Commission, straightened her posture and would begin to speak.

First Daughter Christina Cross-Komarudin

_{"Good day to you all. Before I start with my comments on climate change, I'd like to address an important issue we have. As many of you know and see, I am many years and even decades younger than every person in this Summit. I am here because I have no underlying interests or political allegiance and because I am not a politician, but instead a person who will be affected by the outcome of this Summit. Regarding the Summit, Prince Abdulaziz al-Saud's comments, in two words, he's right. Drastically changing crude oil and fossil fuel production will not be beneficial for the time being due to the world's strong dependency on them. We can, however, slowly begin reducing demand for these fossil fuels by slowly turning to renewable, and as Prime Minister Suga stated, nuclear energy. I personally believe the development of nuclear energy as well as renewable power sources will benefit the world in the short term, as well as the long term. We should not focus on cutting the source of climate change, being fossil fuel and greenhouse gas production, but instead, we should prioritize reducing our own dependency on these fossil fuels, which will eventually eliminate the production of these planet-killing sources of energy. We have to focus on ourselves and our energy sources rather than on others and their exports."}
