The President, Luis Truman, strode inside the meeting room followed by his secretary and two of his elite guards. He sat at his position and looked at the people already present in the room. There was the defense minister, three chiefs of armed forces that is army, navy and air force. There was also some defense personnel who held posts of high ranking. Everybody had been waiting for his arrival. They had been informed the previous day that the President wanted to have a private meeting with them regarding the border security issues. It was normal for the President to hold meetings of such kind to know what the situations were.
After the President had made himself comfortable, the defense minister looked at all the other people and asked the question which everybody had in mind. "Mr. Truman, why are we called here?"
