Having listened to exchange, mostly in silence, occasionally taking notes on a small yellow pad, Valerio finally rose and asked for the attention of everyone. He saw that there was great interest in trade, but was getting impatient with the lack of progress and the seeming focus of some delegates with bilateral trade, at the expense of broader negotiations. Thus he got ready to present his proposal, his hope for a meaningful legacy for this summit:
"My fellow delegates, I must applaud the interest in increasing bilateral trade, but we must keep in mind the goal of this summit: the establishment of regular communication channels and mechanisms for the liberalisation of trade amongst our nations. I have heard all your interventions, and disagreements aside, I believe there is great interest in both objectives. We must meet regularly, either ourselves or our duly appointed representatives, to discuss world affairs. We must create a world free for trade between nations and for the liberal exchange of ideas and information. I propose the following key points of potential agreement."
Valerio held his pad, just as a guidance, since he already knew the key points by heart. "We must agree to the goal of holding summits at the ministerial level or higher every sixth month, so that the affairs of the world may be discussed, problems among nations resolved and confidence and openness between each guaranteed. We must also agree to hold further meetings at other times should they be necessary or desirable to promote the goals of peace and international development." he looked around the room, to see if any delegate had anything to say "We must also commit to holding technical negotiations for the progressive lowering of trade barriers and the promotion of international trade fairs to encourage commerce among our nations, for the purpose of developing our peoples. We must finally commit to setting aside foreign military interventions as a final resort, one to be considered only in the most dire of circumstances, and only at the behest of the international community, when all other options have been reasonably exhausted."
Having finished, Valerio remained standing, lowered his pad, and waited for the response. "My friends, I hope you will all join me in agreeing to these key points."
