Readjusting Foreign Policy; Looking westwards.

May 3rd, 5654

The Merridan Administration has looked to make foreign policy a key point of governing since last year, and has looked to shift up the current foreign policy. While previously, it was largely isolative but focused on North Seleya, it did see few developments outside of Seleya. However, the Merridan Administration has announced a change. Citing recent worries, the current foreign policy is "undesirable". As such, efforts will begin towards shifting away from North Seleyan Centric diplomacy and looking to a new direction. Westwards. Such as Majatra, Artania and Makon. The Merridan Administration has argued that new vectors for trade are needed when the status quo shuts the door.
For starters, the (new) foreign minister, Archie Carr has been sent to Bekenial to begin reviving relations between Baltusia and Hutori, especially looking to cement economic ties. While so far, progress is slow, it is still progress. Afterwards, it is likely that the Foreign Minister will travel to Artania to begin negotiating with states there to expand the trade volume, and bring about economic cooperation with other Artanian states. When asked about the shift in foreign policy, First Minister Merridan claimed that such a move wasn't influenced by recent events in Northern Seleya, but simply a pragmatic move to continue developing the economy without interference. While the Real Deal is capable of continuing on, the Merridan Administration has claimed that rejecting autarky will ensure continued prosperity and ensure the Real Deal can continue without interruptions
So far, the Administration has been specific on telling the press who trade will be conducted with, but has reassured the public that trade with Makon and Artania will provide more wealth for Baltusia, development, and ensure continuing prosperity and stability.
