Bab 228: Conference - II

Prime Minister Rohan allowed the room a moment of quiet, his gaze steady as he scanned the table.

"Prime Minister Eden," Rohan began, his voice calm. "You mentioned earlier the need for guarantees. Let me ask you this: What guarantees does Britain propose to ensure this conflict does not reignite while also respecting Egypt's sovereignty? Words of regret are no longer sufficient."

Eden, who had been sitting with his hands tightly clasped, took a measured breath before responding. "Prime Minister Rohan, the United Kingdom has always been committed to ensuring free trade through the Suez Canal. However, we cannot ignore the economic disruptions caused by its sudden nationalization. If Egypt is willing to provide verifiable guarantees, backed by international oversight then we would consider this a step toward reconciliation."
