Azmenistan accepts the apology graciously and agrees to work toward a return to normalcy. However, the nuclear program remains a problem.
After a rocky start, you are pretty much back to where you were before the meeting with Azmenistan's Foreign Minister.
In response to your apology, Azmenistan's Prime Minister sends his Foreign Minister back to your state for a conciliatory meeting. You are now faced again with the same issues as before with respect to the nuclear program.
| Ignore the issue | You don't want to upset Azmenistan. You import needed goods from Azmenistan, and your good relations with the state provide important balance to the region. Focus the meeting on more pressing issues. |
| Raise the issue gently | Tell Azmenistan's Foreign Minister you are concerned that Azmenistan has expelled foreign inspectors, and ask whether Azmenistan has begun enriching uranium. Tell her that you are concerned that the acquisition of a nuclear weapon by any state in the region would seriously upset regional peace, and might push Brezistan to attempt to develop one, creating tremendous volatility in the region. Request that inspectors be allowed back in to Azmenistan. |
| Raise the issue firmly and directly | Demand that Azmenistan immediately stop enriching uranium, and demand that inspectors be allowed back in immediately. Declare that if these conditions are not met, your state will be forced to move closer to Brezistan diplomatically, and will consider Azmenistan a hostile neighbor rather than an ally. |
| Threaten military action | Declare that if inspectors are not allowed back in and enrichment does not cease within one week, you will invade the country and shut down any enrichment efforts by force. |
