The letter:

*To the people of CivFanatics,
After a long time of cooperation, we think that a feeling of diffidence is growing at both our countries and we want to end this. Cooperation between us is possible and will benefit both of us, after all there will be 3 qualified teams from this game. We think that some subjects should be clarified.
Regarding exploration by land, we can not ignore that there is a history behind this subject. The blockage itself was not the problem, but when the second blockage happened we agreed with your president that both warriors would go home, however yours did not go straight home, it was exploring. At many conversations that we had, we asked where he was and each time your ambassador would tell us a location and the number of turns that it would take the warrior to go home, but turns passed and we did not see it. After many turns he came back, but you were exploring, while our warrior was coming straight home without stopping or making curves. We are afraid that you would do the same with other agreements. Additionally, only when our warrior had already lost a lot of time retreating, you decided to restart negotiations which would benefit your warrior and delay our exploring.
When the subject is sea exploration, we proposed an agreement, that you refused it while saying that you would bring another proposal. After that, you accepted our first proposal and agreed to write it down to make official, however at the last chat you refused it because you do not want to explore our coast and said that the deal is unfair. This is the same behavior of the warrior, and it isn't good for any kind of diplomacy in the world.
Those and other diplomatic moves of yours spread a feeling of distrust among our people We really want cooperation, we always discuss agreements at home and try to bring new ones at the chats, but recently you are only refusing them, without proposing others. Some of our citizens start to think that you are only using diplomacy to postpone issues.
Concerning the proposal for land exploring that offended you, we restate that it was just a proposal. You are welcome to make another one. However, when it was said that we expected you to refuse it, it was only because that has become a commom place in our negotiations. We too are a democracy, and we put foward every agreement that our people believe that we should try to deal.
Concerning the DMZ, we are very sorry that you no longer want to implement it. If you want strong arguments, ask Donovan Zoi, he is the creator of the idea, which is great in our opinion. We believe at the creativity of ours and yours governments to come up with other ideas, if you want we may work at this great project.
We think that understanding the other part is important to proceed with negotiations, we are open to new ideas and statements and Civ3 Brasil look forward to continue negotiating with CFC. And please do not interpret this as an accusation, we are trying to clarify our thoughts, so we may cooperate again, we do not want to hide or avoid subjects. We think that C3B and CFC should be friends, trading technologies, making great agreements, fighting together against other countries and having a clear diplomacy. Let´s built a true alliance.

Comments? I would like to have a meeting with them later this week to respond to the letter. I would really like for our Ministers to come to this one to please give me your times.
It's not so hard to make this analysis afterwards, but to notice this while chatting is another thing.
