Chairman X's plane landed in Petrograd airport. It was rare that the Chairman would represent the government, but in the absence of a President, he was the closest thing to the head of state of the United States of China, and they felt that diplomatic protocol for the task of this importance should be done by the head of state rather than head of government. He looked over his notecards about the country. It had just experienced a period of intense unrest and had come out the other side. Their government leaned to the left on most things. They were more authoritarian... he liked that, authoritarians he could do business with. His aide came up to him.

"Sir we are ready to de board the Plane." the aide said.

"Excellent." he rose. Straightening his military uniform moved along the cabin at a brisk pace, aids forming an entourage behind him. Waiting at the door a stair car would come up to the side of his plane and allow him to walk out onto the tarmac to be greeted by the Vauleyo-Buryatia dignitaries.

Chairman X would be greeted by a Vauleyo-Buryatian Honor Guard and Deputy President Sharova. As he descended onto the tarmac, the Deputy President greeted him:

[i]“Chairman, allow me to welcome you to Vauleyo-Buryatia. If you would come with me, we have arranged transportation to the Presidential Palace, where President Andropov is waiting”[/i]-Sharova

Deputy President Sharova gestured to three waiting armored limousines near the Chairman’s plane on the tarmac.

The Chairman smiled and shook the hand of the Deputy President. “Thank you for welcoming me to your country. He entered into the limousine and directed sitting down looking out the window at the tundra landscape before him.

“I hear your government has been successful in stopping the forces of disorder, congratulations is in order.” He said.

Deputy President Sharova nodded slightly and replied: [i]"Thank you Chairman. We will be arriving at the Presidential Palace shortly."[/i]

[b]***5 Mins later***[/b]

The convoy of limousines entered Socialism Square and drove towards the North Gate of the Presidential Palace where a second honor guard waited. As soon as the North Gate was visible, so was the gold monument to former President Zhukov.

As the limousines pulled up to the Presidential Palace, President Andropov emerged to greet the Chairman. He walked down the Palace steps as the honor guard saluted. He extended his hand and replied:

[i]"Chairman X, welcome to Vauleyo-Buryatia. I am sure we have much to discuss"[/i]-President Andropov

Without delay, the members of the Vauleyo-Buryatian Diplomatic Corps ushered the President and the Chairman into a secure conference room on the second floor of the Presidential Palace and stood waiting in the wings, should any need arise.

[i]"Shall we get down to business Chairman X?"[/i]-President Andropov

"Yes indeed. I am impressed by your country and would like to extend my firmest congratulations. Now to the reason for my visit. I believe our two countries would greatly benefit from the formation of a strong partnership on many levels, economic, military, and intelligence foremost." he said. "As the two pre-eminent powers in East Asia it is natural that we cooperate on these matters."

[i]"I admit Chairman, that while I am in favor of economic cooperation, that I must voice my reservations regarding the military relationship that exists between your nation and the United States. That relationship, will be a clear hindrance that will limit the full extent of military cooperation between our two nations. So at this point, any military cooperation between our two nations will be restricted in accordance with our policy. There are no obstacles to Economic or Intelligence cooperation however.

I thought it best not to beat around the bush, so to speak, and to be upfront regarding the limits on military cooperation and the reasons for such limits."[/i]-President Andropov.

"...Yes, I have heard that disputes have arisen between your two nations. We'd rather stay uninvolved and have strong relations with you both." the Chairman said. "Our view is that both treaties are defensive. We do not believe that they would carry over to sanctioning the other's actions. I have no interest in asking you to send troops to North America."

[i]"At this stage, Chairman, there remains a single question that I must ask. Is your government willing to enter a defensive treaty with Vauleyo-Buryatia who's specific treaty terms do not allow the treaty to be activated via an attack on a third party? If this is the case, then I can state clearly that there will be no additional obstacles in the path of cementing the relationship between our two nations."[/i]-President Andropov

"Yes. We are fully prepared to do that. We propose optional language as far as chaining goes. If there is a case of another ally say in Asia that we feel we should both work together in defending, optional language for chaining would be a good thing, it also allows you to avoid intervening on the side of the Americans." the Chairman answered.

"We would like to suggest an article about mutual intelligence sharing about threats to either nation." the Chairman suggested. "I believe that we would both benefit from this greatly as far as fulfilling the military obligations to one another."

[i]"We could agree to such an Intelligence sharing clause conditional on the language specifying that the intelligence sharing is limited only to our two nations, in other words to prevent mandating the sharing of intelligence in situations involving third parties. In fact may we suggest the following draft text."[/i]-Andropov
