[align=center] Due to there being several conflicts of interest in the Baltic sea region our King believes a council should be held in Visby, Sweden to resolve these issues without violence.

The three issues Sweden wishes to address are as follows:
-The future of Finland
As we all know, Finland was lost by Sweden to Russia on the 17th of September, 1809 in the treaty of Fredrickshamn. Unfortunately the citizens of Sweden still view the citizens of Finland as their brothers. We hope that a peaceful resolution can be agreed upon.

-Maritime rights to the Strait of Øresund.
The Strait of Øresund lies in between Denmark and Sweden, for the moment the Swedish navy patrols the strait, we are adamant to allow ships to exit or enter through the strait without paperwork and wish for there to be a resolution made there.

-The future status of Denmark.
It is known that both Prussia and Sweden have political interests in Denmark, and we wish for this to be elaborated and settled at this council.


We hereby invite ambassadors from Prussia and Russia to attend this council at Visby to discuss above issues.

May prosperity reside with you. [/align]

A Russia delegation will attend the Visby Council.

Our standing points are as follow:

The Duchy of Finland is a legitimate part of the Russian Imperial crown, and as such is unnegotiable. Nevertheless, Russia is interested in keeping a friendly relation with her swedish neighbours, specially regarding maritime access to the Atlantic and North Sea. So, we are open for talks about higher degree of autonomy for finish people, as long as their russian allegiance remains clear.

It is in russian interest to keep the Oresund Strait open for free pass, and Russia will support any presure measures against a non collaborative Denmark.

Russia would also like to express interest in the posibility of opening the North Atlantic danish domains for international trade, either by concession or through autonomy from danish crown.

Russia is already in talks with Sweden about the posibility of higher autonomy in the Duchy of Finland.

If talks output is positive, Russia is willing to appoint a Finish governor and delegate most competencies, except for external relations and military.
