Following recent talks between Queen Atalanta II and Dragon-Emperor Tielin II it was brought up that the Majestic Empire of Lijiang would like to seek a potential trade arrangement between ourselves and their nation. With this in mind the Queen has provisionally put forward the following as a potential agreement. Her Majesty now calls upon the rest of the SUN to review this and upon inviting the Dragon-Emperor to our HQ prepare for discussions.

The following arrangement is in place between Lijiang and the Sovereign Union of Nations.

Quote
a) Lijiang is recognised as a preferred trade partner.

b) As a preferred trade partner they are to face tariffs at a lower rate than non-member nations. These tariffs will be set on a reciprocal nature.

c) So long as an item complies with local laws it may enter any other nation covered by this treaty with no limits.

d) Companies may offer investment in any other nation on the same conditions as local ones. These companies will comply with local employment and taxation rules. No taxes will be charged on top of local taxes on funds taken out of the nation.

e) Lijiang will be permitted to have a non-voting representative on the FTA of the Sovereign Union of Nations.

The Drenovian representative addressed the assembly.

"We think the arrangement is a good one in theory. We have seen Lijiang support the values of this organisation with their stance on their nuclear programme in the face of MAEA attempts at marginalising smaller nations. I think therefore the question must be asked that rather than approving this agreement do we make an effort to persuade Lijiang to join our family so to speak? The Cassiopeians have meet with the Dragon-Emperor so perhaps they could assess whether they think such an overture would be accepted. "
