It's no secret that Xsampa shares positive nations with many monarchist country's. Between monarchies in Artania, Keris, or Majatra, Xsampa maintains cordial and friendly ties with them all, regularly engaging in trade. However, one monarchy that has a rather complex relationship, is the Seleyan monarchy that is, Kalistan. While Kalistan is an, admittedly, anti-communist state and by all logic should not be a friend, the actions of Kalistan in the past have proven otherwise, with support during the Bargas Chenpo and shared solidarity. This was exemplified when Kalistan would become a buyer of Xsampan gems. However, this came to an end in the late 70s due to the disaster that was the Mearvi-Shar Conference, led by the Passereau Administration. While relations since have been spotty, most Xsampans still have a favourable view of Kalistan.

As such, when several sources from Istalia confirmed the deaths of the Empress and Emperor of Kalistan due to an accident in the Mad Dog Ocean, there was no shortage of sympathy for the Kalistani people from many Xsampans. Many didn't expect the S Aurousseau Administration to address it, however, a few days, that was thoroughly shot down as Premier Sherab Aurousseau has sent her condolences to the people of Kalistan, and urging solidarity with Kalistan and her people in these difficult times. 

It's no secret that Xsampa and Kalistan have had firm ideological disagreements. It's no secret that relations have been frosted by the previous administration's actions in the Mearvi-Shar Conference. That, is no secret. But, it is no secret that Kalistan was amongst the first to come to the aid of Xsampa during the Bargas Chenpo. It's no secret that Kalistan was the first to assist Xsampa with modernizing the Xsampan Rail Network. It's no secret that Kalistan was there for the Tricentennial to celebrate a friendship. It is no secret that Xsampans feel endless sympathy for the people of Kalistan in these times. I believe I speak collectively for all Xsampans when I say this. Our hearts are with Kalistan. We send our deepest condolences for the tragedy that happened. Despite our disagreements, solidarity with Kalistan, her people and House Ananto is critical. We wish to remind not just Kalistan, but House Ananto themselves, that, despite past disagreements, all of Xsampa is in solidarity with Kalistan over this tragedy. Metz-Leonid will be available the moment House Ananto, or the people of Kalistan need anything.

Despite Kalistan being an absolute monarchy, the People's Committee of Information would like to echo the statement by Premier S Aurousseau, and share our sympathy to the people of Kalistan. There is no greater tragedy than losing the people who represent your very nation. All of Xsampa stands in solidarity with Kalistan. Long live Kalistan, long live House Ananto, and May the people of Kalistan know endless joy and prosperity in the future, through these times of grief.
