Protesters shot and killed in Jolthig!

LAFIDA - A group of progressive, communist, socialist, and social democratic protesters were shot and killed today by the Armed Forces of the Federative State of Jolthig today at 9:00 A.M. Jolthig Time in Lafida, Jolthig.

The planned protest of college students began early this morning at around 4 A.M. JT. Soon, 600 protesters filled the Main Street of Lafida, the capital of Jolthig, to protest the fascist regime of Supreme Leader James Mentiani.

At 5 A.M., the Supreme Leader authorized the Armed Forces of the Federative State to crack down on the protesters and an hour later, 1,100 troops and 20 tanks filled the Main Street of Lafida and they began demanding the surrender of protesters. When a group of radicals began throwing Molotov cocktails at the soldiers, the army immediately fired upon the protesters, killing 30 and injuring 130 more. The rest of the protesters retreated and martial law was declared for Lafida.

Currently, the remaining protesters are being hunt down by the military to be arrested for treason against the state. The Supreme Leader has yet to release a statement on the protests. Stay tuned for more headlines from Jolthig!

OFFICIAL MESSAGE OF THE EMPIRE OF GREATER NIHON




Image

"HONOUR, LOYALTY, RIGHTEOUSNESS!"



ATTN: Supreme Leader James Mentiani, Jolthig
SUBJECT: Recent massacre.
ENCRYPTION: xiu?u!0PN&}`x+0r%a<a9j-(:8O]Qz




Your Excellency, Supreme Leader James Mentiani - san, Greetings with honour!

The government of the Empire of Greater Nihon wishes to communicate the following to the office of Supreme Leader James Mentiani; that the government of the empire of Greater Nihon can not, and will not condone the action happening recently in Lafani. As much as our government recognized the internal threat of cultural and economical Marxism as being real and present, constantly damaging any society, it can not condone mass killings happening recently in Lafani.

The government of the Empire of Greater Nihon wishes to inform the government of Jolthig that such action will only fuel the liberal and socialist wrath, giving them a reason to exist. Furthermore, such action will mobilize them. It is widely known that majority of protesters like that are commonly known by vulgar term "shit eater" by GRU jargon - they pose no threat because of being too foolish and too young to think for themselves. Even with that, the people, in the opinion of Nihonese government, should not be harmed no matter how much detestable political views they hold, for it is their right to hold them. Persecution should happen only if such groups engage in violence or sentient subversion against the government, which are the legit crimes in any state.

Therefore, those are steps the government of greater Nihon advices the office of Supreme Leader James Mentiani to take:

- Peaceful de - escalation of the riots after security service ensures no threat from the Marxist side.

- Conducting a detailed investigation in the event, measuring weather the firing was or wasn't legitimate.

The minister of external affairs of the Empire of Greater Nihon, Asuka Tokugawa, wishes the office of Supreme Leader James Mentiani to consider those terms. Feeding communists will only lead to rebellion and establishment of abominable marxist state. This is not state that the government of the Empire of Greater Nihon wishes this to end it.

Office of the Chancellor of the Empire of South Afrikaan
Statement Concerning the Jolthig Protest Massacre


It is with great dispare that I think of the lives lost at the Jolthig protest. The government and people of South Afrikaan send out deepest condolences to those that have lost their lives or been hurt and their families.

The right to assemble is one that must be upheld in a truly free society. It is clear that the Jolthig government has violated that sacred contact with it's people. On behalf of Her Imperial Majesty's government, I without reservation condem the actions of the Jolting government and demand that further action against the protester immediately end.

South Afrikaan looks forward to seeing a freer Jolthig.

Official message from Skyhooked


We recieved the message, that your regime slaughtered protestors and maybe a few passers by. Almost for nothing, they were attacked by armed police. Such actions can only add some doubts in legitimacy of government and just create another senceless bloodshed, if not mass riots. We condemn such actions, and demand to put an end to such barbaric practices. They won't make your international image better, only lead to consequences, from sanctions to full scale revolution.

Official Public Message From Naugworland

When we heard of the incident, we were horrified. Killing protesters and some innocent people passing by is not the way to end a protest. Instead, your people will be unhappy and more protests will start across the nation. We heavily condemn this action and we think people worldwide should have rights to protest. This can lead to mass riots, even a civil war. We demand your police force should handle this situation, instead of the military.

[...], Naugworland's Head of State

We know,that those measures are tough, but you are just underestimating pissed off folk. Before the revolution, our old government had similar surveillance, very heavily armed police, agents everywhere, and oppressive laws. But it didn't save them, just made that rebellion longer and harder. So it's really better to make peace sometimes and stop that "witch hunting". And even without a revolution, some countries can impose a heckload of sanctions, condemns, tourism discourages and other nasty things that will hurt the economy, which must be in a good shape to keep all those cops on posts.

To whom may it concern,

The reasons for the involvement of the Armed Forces of the Federative Republic is that forces of the Police Department for the Security of Lafida have been used and the protesters were too violent for the P.D.S.L. to handle and therefore, the Federative Republic has dispatched the troops of the A.F.F.R. to suppress the protest.

Federative Republic will not end the hunt for the remaining protesters until they are brought to justice. And any attempt at a violent revolution shall be suppressed for, from now on, every individual within the grounds of the Federative Republic is now under surveillance. Especially on social media. Any violent revolution or plans of a revolution shall be suppressed for the Federative Republic is strengthening its security to ensure the protection of the nation from leftists.

To whom may it concern,

The Federative State has assured its citizens and the nations of the world willing to ask questions to the Mentiani Regime. If there were any attempts at a violent revolution, the revolution would be short-lived due to their members be either unarmed or lightly armed compared to the heavily armed forces of the Federative State.

Sanctions may have an impact on Jolthig, but it only tells the State that it is too dependent on foreign countries not willing to accept the existence of our regime and more self-suffiency is needed to ensure the security of the Nation. Due to the potential of anti-Mentiani nations doing this, the State has enacted laws to ensure self-suffiency and to only trade with our allies if needed.

Official Communiqué from the People's Union of Letwinist States



To: The Federative State of Jolthig
Attn.: Supreme Leader James Mentiani

Subject: On the situation in Jolthig

Encryption Level: Standard



Dear Mr Mentiani,

We were greatly saddened to hear about the tragic loss of life within your nation and offer all affected our truest condolences.

The Union is under the impression that what started out as a peaceful protest got out of hand and precautions were taken to restore order. Make no mistake, we were shocked by the violent use of military personnel against civilians. Nonetheless, we are convinced that the necessity to act in the way which resulted in this catastrophe was apparent to your administration at that specific point in time.

Open communication from your administration has been read by Union personnel and we hope that further violence will not be crucial for the perseverance of your nation. We are not in any way convinced that violent oppression of your people is the way to uphold law and order; we believe that a measure of freedom is important for all people to remain civilised. Hence, we hope that you will think on your policy which generally condemns any and all people who speak out against your state. If not granted essential freedoms, such as the freedom of expression, the populace will, no doubt, remain unruly and while you may have the technical capabilities to surveille every citizen of your nation, this will not change their sentiments towards your administration. Freedom of expression is certainly a broad term, a term to be defined and by no means gives every being the right to say everything they wish. Would it not suffice to restrict this right when certain groups are discriminated against or, if your administration so wishes, government officials are concerned?

While recognising that some exist, we fervently hope that it will be possible for your state to retain its tradition and fundamental principles, government type, while giving citizens at the very least basic human rights.

We would be open to further contact to discuss the matter, ascertaining that civil rights reforms will not endanger your political principles and national customs or even economic output in cooperation with your state. We hope that a mutually beneficial solution, one acceptable by your population and yourself, can be sought in an amicable spirit of cooperation.

With letwinist greetings,

Oliver Jogi

And a total of 300 protesters were arrested and detained at the Federative Prison in Lafida.

OOC:

I first caught sight of this thread several days ago but had a number of RL concerns to address before I could get around to responding. Sorry for the delay.




IC:

May 21, AD 2016
1148 hours local time


Office of the Right Honorable Augustus Borozan
Fifth floor, Ministry of Foreign Affairs Building
Chalcedon Capital District
Imperial Federation of the Monavian Empire


The Jolthigian military’s encounter with a body of protestors took nearly a day to catch the attention of the Ministry’s Media Processing Center staff since the Imperial Federation had formal relations with or interests in Jolthig’s part of the world. When the incident finally caught a researcher’s attention, the original Jolthigian news article and related information got compiled into a file and sent upstairs to the Monavian Foreign Relations Council, a panel of experts who provide advice to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and his deputy. The panel quietly voted to recommend that the Minister write a condolence letter and otherwise follow a “wait-and-see” policy towards the matter for the next few days. When lunchtime finally arrived and the panel adjourned for the day, an intern came by to take their report to the office of Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Augustus Borozan.

“Excuse me, Minister,” the new intern sheepishly cut in after knocking on Borozan’s door.

“You have something for me?” Borozan asked, noting the folder clutched under the intern’s arm.

“Yes. The Foreign Relations Council had me pick up a folder from them and they want you to look at it.”

“Fine. Just leave it on my desk,” Borozan instructed.

“As you wish,” the intern responded as he deposited the folder in Borozan’s inbox and departed the room.

The Deputy Minister spent a few minutes reading through the Jolthigian press release and the recommendations that his advisers had made based upon their research into the incident. He then pulled up a copy of a condolence letter he had written a while earlier and used it as a starting point for drafting a letter to the Supreme Leader of Jolthig. Since he could not find an official Jolthigian manual of style online, he opted to address the leader as formally as possible and avoided injecting any political themes since he could not predict how the fallout from the shooting might settle in the days ahead. Twenty minutes later, he summoned a courier to his office to pick up the finished document and send it on its way.

May 21, 2016

Your Excellency:

Earlier today my office received word of the tragic incident that occurred when your garrison in Lafida was attacked yesterday morning. I was saddened to read about the number of casualties that were left in the wake of the violent assault perpetrated against your soldiers and hope that your armed forces will be able to put this incident behind them as soon as possible.

Though neither my office nor my government at large is presently acquainted with Your Excellency’s government, I pray that your people will be able to peacefully go about their lives without fear of further incidents and provocations. With this in mind, I further offer you my condolences on behalf of the Monavian government and the half-billion souls it represents.

Sincerely,

In the St. Maurican Parliament

"Your Excellency the Premier, what actions will the government take against the massacre in Jolthig?" asked a MP from the back row.

"We have already issued a travel advisory, warning our citizens..." the Premier began.

"That's all! What about the oppressed Jolthig people?" Shouted another MP, breaking etiquette as he interrupted the Premier. The government was shocked and the Premier looked to the Speaker to take control as the opposition needed and banged the floor with their chairs. The situation descended as the Premier began to demand punishments for his opponents and his supporters shouted behind him.

Finally the Speaker regained control, and ended the session. As he walked out Premier Kater turned to the MPs near him. "I want the strongest possible censure on that backbench rascal. And Peter, draw up sanctions against Jolthig. Hopefully we can avoid implementing them, but popular opinion may demand it."
