Mayari national parliament.

The Mayari Congress has voted a controversial resolution declaring "neutrality" the official foreign policy of the country.

The resolution came only two weeks that the Mayari President announced that Mayari will not extend the current defense and military cooperation agreements that the Ostaran nation had with several countries, including Singan, Nyland, HLE or Kortoa.

The new government policy is not supported by everyone in Mayari, as critics and several opposition lawmakers accusing the president of "surrendering the national sovereignty" of the Democratic Republic of Mayari.

Mayari president, however, has declared that neutrality "does not mean isolationism" but rather "focus in our problems and interests first". He has declared that his government is negotiating a free trade agreement with the Tieguonese government in order to "strengthen our economy...and the relations between both countries".
