Cantignian Message/Akesson Speaks Out
Cantignia Today the Department of Foreign Affairs confirmed that Cantignia had sent a very vague message earlier that could eitheer be construed as a congragulations for the new President, Kirsten Lange, and the Asylan people. However some analysts believe that the country had meant to insult Asylan by stating that a military junta had taken control of Asylan politics. "THE Friendly Confines heartily congratulate the Peoples & Patriots of Asylan on their full realization of Military Junta, for surely now they can orchestrate the rise of an Empire they always so desired yet failed to achieve. Thus, in recognition of the President-Elect's prowess in naval matters, this Grand Covenant of Cantignia sagely suggests at minimum a bilateral, and if all possible a multilateral naval non-aggression agreement between Asylan and Cantignia; God willing, Asylan and the European Mainland at large. May the every man, woman, and child see that war is not their desire - only the design of those rich with martial and political cunning, be they from Cantignia or Asylan, true mothers and fathers do not send their sons and daughters to die over the squabbles of these rich elite." "After considering the content of this message I've come to believe that Cantiginia was simply trying to relay its congratulations to a new and wildly different administration from former President Hollande. We would like to thank the Cantignians in their support for our political process however we believe it is necessary to make a statement on a few items. We would like to ensure that no country has the idea that Asylan under the control of the military, for which it is most assuredly not. We would also like to emphasize that Asylan has no desire to create a global empire, nor does it have the means to do so. Asylan also doe not desire war with any country and abhors the use of an army to force itself onto other countries." President Lange said in response, "We will always desire to remain at peace with the people of Cantignia" Akesson Speaks Out In Erdenshire, former rebel leader and political hopeful in the Eastern Cape Akesson has spoken out about his supposed arrest.
