War With Freiheit & Council of Nations Dithering
The Holy Tiburan Empire of Oltremare declared a state of war between our peoples, and the government of the Germanic Freedom State of Freiheit, a brutal, aggressive and genocidal regime shortly after their own declaration of war upon one of our oldest, and closest allies: the Empire of Greater Sarmatia. In the statement including the declaration of war, Imperial Chancellor Giuseppe Emmanuel added "No longer will we allow the unstable, dangerous regime that currently exists in Freiheit to continue to destabilize its region and, indeed, Europe as a whole."
Indeed, with its aggressive rhetoric, recent race-based civil war and implications towards wiping out the Otchi race, not to mention an attempted sleight of hand with its supposedly dismantled nuclear arsenal, the regime of Freiheit has few friends in the international world. Even those who, in typical Western Dominican knee-jerk reactions, condemn our Sarmatian allies for taking the initiative in bringing down Freiheit's regime, express their displeasure at said regime's continuing existence, and have insisted it step down.
The government of Freiheit, however, will have none of it, and with each aggressive statement its already dismal support shrinks by the day. Even now, in the Council of Nations, there is debate over the possibility of "an International Intervention Coalition", as supported by the Makai Islands' ambassador to the Council of Nations, whose purpose is, "... to formally oversee a dismantling of the Faust regime, the oversight of free and fair Freheit elections, and, above all else, the provision of aid and neutral refuge camps to the citizens of both the Otchi and Freheit states."
While it was claimed initially that such a Coalition would be to prevent further bloodshed, the true colors of the Western conspiracy was shown shortly afterward by the same ambassador of the Makai Islands. In a plea for the Republic of Frescania to throw their support behind this Coalition, the ambassador stated, "... in the name of preventing another state falling into an Oriental-Sarmatian Imperialist sphere of influence." This Coalition, therefore, is motivated primarily not through any moral obligation, as our part in bringing the unstable Faust regime in Freiheit down is, but is instead political.
When asked about the current debate in the Council of Nations, however, the Imperial Chancellor dismissed the notion of any serious action from that decayed, Western controlled body. "Look at recent conflicts, such as Batavië, or Barazi. Where was the Council of Nations in those conflicts? Twiddling its thumbs and wondering what it should do, when it took outside sources to resolve those conflicts. What makes you think the third time will be the charm here? This point was even stated by the Batavian ambassador to the Council of Nations, referencing the on-going civil war in Akhaltsikhe. I quote, 'The CN failed to act when Batavië cried for help. My own country turned to other means. I wish that was not so, but we had no choice.'. I rest my case."
HEADLINES
International ~ Akhaltsikhe, Himyar: Chaos engulfs the Himyaran state of Akhaltsikhe as the Georgian government slowly crumbles from the pressure of Uroduah rebel factions, and invasions from the Talemantine Empire and the Red Republic of Carentania. Political experts predict that "A notably smaller Akhaltsikhe will emerge from this conflict no matter what" and that Council of Nations intervention was "unlikely."
National ~ Palace of the Imperators, Monteferrato: Final preparations for the wedding between His Imperial Tiburan Majesty, Francesco VII, and the daughter of one of the most powerful Aresurai chiefs in the Holy Tiburan Empire, Mehmet Serhat, are taking place as we speak. The conversion of the future Empress of the Holy Tiburan Empire, Ayse Serhat, to our one true faith, and her wedding to His Imperial Tiburan Majesty is expected to occur, at the latest, on August 1st.
