Imperial Marshall Han FeiZi of Europe has met with the leaders of the Vektarian Empire. The men had a long and frank discussion over each others strategic objectives. We talked about the memo now publicly available about Vektarian action against the Ferrous Pacific. It has been decided that both men wish to have a peaceful Europe. Therefore the United Francoist Empire has signed a Memorandum of Understanding and Strategic Cooperation with the Vektarian Empire. We shall work forward towards a new dawn on the European Continent and around the World.
Imperial Marshall Han FeiZi will begin meeting with our regional allies and friends in the Franzharian Territories also to conclude our diplomacy tour of Europe.
