Elite League "Full Speed Ahead", Virus "A Non Issue" for October 31st Puck Drop

Englean goaltender Karsten Riemenschneider will look to repeat MVP season in 2020-2021

Despite concerns over the impact of the recent RETRIT-20/PVAX-20 virus over such a large drawing sport such as Elite League hockey, the league has no plans to make any changes to its standard operating procedure, says a press release from league president and Commissioner Kai Parviainen.
The press release would go on to say the following in addition:

"Firstly I would like to congratulate the Orheim Admirals for their incredible Lord's Cup victory in a hard fought finals on all sides against the Lonlond Ice Tigers, and look forward with baited breath to see how Justen Boele, Karsten Riemenschneider, and the rest of the fantastic team they have in Orheim will defend their title against a league that is as hungry as ever. Unfortunately, on the international stage, the offseason and its associated festivities such as the draft and all star tour in Engleberg and Rhodevus have been overshadowed by a virus that has put a damper on the usual tone of such events, however, due to it being almost nonexistent in our native Talvistova, we have no intentions of letting something so minute make changes to something so major to so many people in our great league and nation. However that is not to say we will not strive to continue the safety off ice, and will test players weekly in case of infection. I reiterate that despite the off ice testing, we have absolutely no plans to inhibit fans' ability to attend games and cheer on their local teams with no impeding from masks or any other unnecessary safety measures. That is all.

National Liberation Committee Of Independent Vesvai, The National Council Of Vesvai And The National Council Of Rebellion Of Vesvai Meet In Perloveu Headquarters Of The National Liberation Committee For An Unprecedented Summit

Variant without the Golden Eagle.

The National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai has invited its colleagues from the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai to the National Liberation Committee’s headquarters in Perloveu. The three political bodies formed by Vesvaian defectors, dissidents and expats living in New Vesvai and pursuing independence of Vesvai from the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai will be holding a meeting. Members and other representatives of the National Council of Vesvai arrived in Perloveu from Acenu, New Vesvai where the National Council was formed and based. Members and other representatives of the National Council of Rebellion came to New Vesvai’s capital from Deramia, New Vesvai where the National Council of Rebellion was formed and is headquartered.

In the past the three political bodies were seen as competing for the dominant political body that would lead and symbolize the Vesvaian defector-led pro-independence movement. All three basically had ambitions to declare themselves as the dominant Vesvaian government-in-exile and didn’t coordinate with each other, only competed. Out of the three the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai has been the best known among the Vesvaian expat community living in New Vesvai. The Committee is oldest, based in New Vesvai’s capital Perloveu and is the only one associated with the Vesvaian defector social movement: the National Liberation Movement. Originally it was a movement for democracy in the formerly sovereign Dominion of Vesvai but after the Union between Vesvai and Oblaren was formed it became a movement for both democracy and independence. Over time independence took the lead as the prime priority with democracy becoming secondary. The National Liberation Committee basically developed the reputation as the political arm of the National Liberation Movement.

The National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai decided to form a political alliance and coordinate their actions without getting the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai involved. Both hoped to outweigh the Committee by combining their forces and also doing more to support the actual fight for independence out there on the frontlines. And that is when the National Council and the National Council of Rebellion began forming, arming, training and giving resources to rebels undergoing preparation on New Vesvai’s territory but formed to fight the Union on its territory for the independence of Vesvai. Mediation from New Vesvai’s government helped convince the three political bodies to forget about their envy and political ambitions instead focusing on the common cause. And that is when a coordination between the National Council of Vesvai, the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai and the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai. All three began working together and cooperating in supporting the independence fighters.

Since then the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai released a joint statement denouncing the crackdown by the forces of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai on the Vesvaian pro-independence movement with brute force. It didn’t matter whether the government in the Union’s capital Fortwel ordered that or not. This statement was released after the Union forces suppressed a second guerilla insurgency in Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai by local pro-independence partisans there.

Today the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai are meeting for their first ever huge summit without counting their past smaller meetings and encounters since they began coordinating. Chairman of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai Acido Soran said that the summit is expected to end with “significant and historic results if everything goes well and the talks go through because we had realized that we’re in this together and our options are becoming limited.”

Nikola Zupánčič makes a PVAX-20 recovery

JUGAC, BAGGNAGIA – Nikola Zupánčič (Candidate for South Baggnagian President from Nationalist Party of South Baggnagia (NPSB) in the first presidential election of the ex-nation) has recovered from the Novell Illness at the Jugac Capital Hospital. At his older age Zupánčič has managed to overcome the heavier of the two viruses: PVAX-20. Right now Zupánčič will be going through a recovery period and rehabilitation at the Jugac Capital Hospital where he was treated.

Baggnagian negotiators say that Pameravan separatists are violating the cease-fire agreement by establishing border installations on demarcation line

NORTH-EASTERN DEMARCATION LINE, BAGGNAGIA – Baggnagian negotiators from the Military Council government have said that Pameravan separatists are violating the cease-fire agreement by one-sidedly deciding to establish border-like installations on the demarcation line. According to negotiators keeping the border status quo was part of the deal but Pamerava is now trying to de facto separate from Baggnagia entirely. Whereas the cease-fire agreement was meant to freeze the conflict. The actions of Pameravan separatists are putting the Baggnagian party of the conflict in a position where it’s going to be forced to act in defense of territorial integrity of the nation. Military Council Chairman Lt. Colonel Juraj Pietsch said that Baggnagia will not be one-sidedly resorting to military action and thus resuming the hot phase of the conflict while destroying the existing cease-fire. But the Military Council has also called upon the separatists to discontinue moves towards turning the demarcation line into so-called “international border” since that would be a criminal offense. The Military Council warned of non-government activists at the demarcation line taking violent action to try sabotaging the creation of border installations. That could lead to inter-civilian violence on the demarcation line and also force the Baggnagian armed forces possibly with Pameravan armed formations to get involved as well. And that could also unwillingly destroy the existing cease-fire according to Baggnagian negotiators.

BREAKING: National Liberation Committee Of Independent Vesvai, The National Council Of Vesvai And The National Council Of Rebellion Of Vesvai Establish An Alliance: Round Table–Free Vesvai

Flag used by Vesvaian dissidents and defectors living in New Vesvai, the National Liberation Movement, the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai associated with the National Liberation Movement, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai. Variant without the Golden Eagle.

The National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai have announced the formation of a grand coalition: Round Table–Free Vesvai. The new political alliance would be made up of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai and serve as a political force pursuing the independence of Vesvai from the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. The announcement of the grand coalition’s creation was made today at the first joint press conference of members of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai from the headquarters of the National Liberation Committee in Perloveu. That is where the three political bodies had their first joint three day summit and where they have made the decision to form Round Table–Free Vesvai. Along with the headquarters of the National Liberation Committee in Perloveu, the headquarters of the National Council in Acenu and of the National Council of Rebellion in Deramia would be repurposed into additional headquarters of Round Table–Free Vesvai. All three Perloveu, Acenu and Deramia locations would be joint headquarters of Round Table–Free Vesvai.

Right now Round Table–Free Vesvai will operate out of the territory of New Vesvai like the three political bodies making it up have been so far. The methods of promoting Vesvaian moderate nationalism and pursuing Vesvaian independence have been declared to be peaceful, political, diplomatic ones. The first joint announcement of Round Table–Free Vesvai after its formation was aimed at the government of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Round Table–Free Vesvai has issued a demand that Vesvaians be allowed to determine their own future and politically allowed to vote between independence and remaining in the Union. Round Table–Free Vesvai has warned that ignoring these demands will only raise the risk of guerilla warfare resurfacing and continuing in the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. It would be a violent response to the suppression of Vesvaian rights and Round Table–Free Vesvai warns that it would not be because the grand coalition would support or promote it. Round Table–Free Vesvai only talks of it and warns of it as a natural occurrence almost like a natural disaster and promotes a peaceful path as an alternative and also a way to escape new armed rebellions, military assault and violence on Vesvaian land.

Union Prime Minister Jonathan Mollisal Denounces “Round Table–Free Vesvai” And Reiterates That There Should Be No Negotiations With Terrorists

Prime Minister of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai Jonathan Mollisal has denounced the so-called “Round Table–Free Vesvai” which formed yesterday in Perloveu, New Vesvai. PM Mollisal repeated his past remarks about the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai based in New Vesvai. He referred to these three formations as the political arm of the terrorist guerillas that have been torturing Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai with their armed criminal acts. Additionally he called the political arm of Vesvaian defector terrorists intruding into the Union’s territory as foreign agents of hostile nations. They’re based in New Vesvai and receive political, financial and military sponsorship from New Vesvai’s regime. Apart from common goals of destabilizing Vesvai’s part of the Union the defector terrorists and New Vesvai’s regime certainly identify with each other since New Vesvai was founded by the same kind of defector traitors and collaborators who broke away from the Vesvaian nation before the Union with Oblarenite nation was formed.

Because the so-called alliance and grand coalition of “Round Table–Free Vesvai” is made up of those same National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai it’s obvious that “Round Table–Free Vesvai” has the same label of being a political arm of foreign-sponsored defector terrorists. Except this time instead of three political arms there’s a single bigger political arm with the three having merged into this “Round Table–Free Vesvai.” The situation hasn’t changed nonetheless and PM Jonathan Mollisal said what he said before that there should be no negotiation with terrorists and that they should be ignored to not give them any recognition or legitimacy. The Prime Minister thinks that Oblaren and Vesvai will avoid getting into this mess and walking into this trap as a self-respecting nation. He also once again hopes that Union President Russel Kelpir and Union Caretaker Parliament are of the same opinion. That would help formulate a single Union government’s anti-terrorist policy and Fortwel’s official stance.

BREAKING: Round Table–Free Vesvai Declares Itself A Government-In-Exile Of Independent Vesvai After The Union Of Oblaren And Vesvai Prime Minister Jonathan Mollisal Uses Terrorist Slander A Second Time And Rejects Dialogue

Flag used by Vesvaian expats, dissidents and defectors living in New Vesvai, the National Liberation Movement, the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai associated with the National Liberation Movement, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai. Variant without the Golden Eagle.

In one of its headquarters in New Vesvai’s capital city Perloveu the newly created grand coalition and alliance: Round Table–Free Vesvai has taken an oath to Vesvaian people and basically inaugurated itself as the sole government of an independent nation of Vesvai. A nation which presently doesn’t exist as Vesvai is part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Round Table–Free Vesvai made up of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai has basically sworn itself in and declared itself to be the government-in-exile of independent Vesvai on the next day after declaring the alliance’s formation. Round Table–Free Vesvai will be an interim authority that will seek the restoration of independence of the sovereign state of Vesvai from the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Round Table–Free Vesvai now claims authority over the territory that is today Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai and rejects the Union’s sovereignty over Vesvaian land.

Chairman of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai Acido Soran said that Round Table–Free Vesvai swearing itself in as the government-in-exile of independent Vesvai was part of the alliance’s creation’s plan. Back when they were still not coordinating the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai each had a plan to declare themselves as the sole government-in-exile of independent Vesvai. The National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai even alluded to that in the past but never took an oath or underwent its own inauguration. Such declarations created tensions with the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai both of which later started coordinating with each other but not with the National Liberation Committee. Each of the three still had a plan to declare themselves as the sole government-in-exile of independent Vesvai and that would’ve created three parallel rival governments-in-exile of independent Vesvai which ultimately had the same goal but would compete for power and dominance. That would potentially tear apart the shared pro-independence struggle. That is why the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai eventually came together and this single body of Round Table–Free Vesvai declared itself as sole government-in-exile of independent Vesvai claiming the territory of Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai and rejecting the Union’s rule over that territory.

National Liberation Committee Chairman Acido Soran said that declaring Round Table–Free Vesvai as government-in-exile of independent Vesvai was part of the alliance’s formation’s plan but was also a last resort. The National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai called for dialogue with the Union side and called upon them to respect the pro-independence movement inside Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. But that was rejected, the pro-independence movement’s existence was denied and all rebels labeled as terrorists. This was in the words of a native Vesvaian and current Prime Minister of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai Jonathan Mollisal. A second call aimed at the Union’s side was made when Round Table–Free Vesvai was formed but the same sort of response was given voiced by PM Jonathan Mollisal. Having given up on traditional diplomacy Round Table–Free Vesvai took the last step earlier than expected and now claims itself to be the government-in-exile and the legitimate authority of Vesvaian land under the rule of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai.

Union Prime Minister Jonathan Mollisal Says There Is Only One Sole Government Of Oblaren And Vesvai And It’s In Fortwel, No “Governments-In-Exile” Can Be Imposed

Prime Minister of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai Jonathan Mollisal says that there is only one true government of the united nation and it’s in the capital Fortwel, Oblaren’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. According to the head of government to “governments-in-exile” can be imposed on the Union from abroad by factual terrorists sitting in their sanctuary.

“[W]e don’t have a Union government position yet. We have yet to speak with President Kelpir or assemble any sort of special meetings to address this national security threat of trying to destabilize Oblaren and Vesvai. My stance is clear and it comes the earliest because that’s my native land that is at stake here of falling to separatist terrorists. And my homeland that is the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai is also at risk of being torn apart. So must not allow that to happen and I’m sure everybody among our officials understands this and agrees with this. We are talking about protecting our single united nation’s borders. As Prime Minister I want to speak with our cabinet at a meeting of strategic character regarding this threat. I want to visit the Union Parliament and get the MPs engaged in this. But for now I hope to arrange a plan of action with the President since he is our commander-in-chief. I don’t think that an appearance of fraudulent “government-in-exile” warrants a Martial Law in the Union or just Vesvai’s part of the Union but we must react quick. Today I have not yet taken any steps because I’ve spent my day taking in this whole frightening information and figuring out what to do. But tomorrow I’ll start taking steps and my first course of action to get the President in on this.”

BREAKING: New Vesvai’s Parliament Votes To Recognize Round Table–Free Vesvai As The “Legitimate Representative of Northern Vesvaian people inhabiting the historic territory of the former Dominion of Vesvai excluding today’s sovereign state of New Vesvai”

Flag used by Vesvaian expats, dissidents and defectors living in New Vesvai, the National Liberation Movement, the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai associated with the National Liberation Movement, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai. Variant without the Golden Eagle.

And this just in. The Parliament of New Vesvai has formally recognized Round Table–Free Vesvai which declared itself a government-in-exile of independent Vesvai as the legal leadership of Vesvaian territory that’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. In the law passed by the Parliament Round Table–Free Vesvai has been recognized as: the “Legitimate Representative of Northern Vesvaian people inhabiting the historic territory of the former Dominion of Vesvai excluding today’s sovereign state of New Vesvai.” This has been called a historic vote. There was no unanimity but the majority of MPs from the government and from the opposition voted for this bill. During the procedure New Vesvai’s former Prime Ministers were present: Kai Placore, Matteas Noran, interim Raio Foranel and Adi Letago. All except Beana Villano a Prime Minister that briefly led a government that was overthrown in New Vesvai’s peaceful Silver Revolution and then left the nation presumably being given asylum in the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai.

According to this new bill New Vesvai no longer recognizes the claim of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai over the remainder of the Island of Vesvai with obvious exception to the separate independent state of New Vesvai that’s not part of the equation. New Vesvai did not have any relations with the former Dominion of Vesvai except for people contacts and bilateral travel. Today New Vesvai has no relations with the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai and people contacts and bilateral travel was stopped from the Union’s side. Now New Vesvai can actually have a relationship with the other Vesvai for the very first time through Round Table–Free Vesvai as the legal government of north-eastern neighbor on the same island.

Opposition MPs take credit for this historic bill in support of fellow Vesvaians across the border. Opposition parties claim the NR-BOA coalition government had a weak policy in response to the Union’s crackdown on the Vesvaian pro-independence uprising across the border and in supporting the political bodies that Vesvaian defectors, dissidents and expats formed on New Vesvai’s territory. Apart from asylum they deserved much more and opposition politicians say that now’s the first step when New Vesvai will start moving in the direction of aiding Vesvaian brethren to the end.

This is fresh news so reactions from inside New Vesvai like from the defectors and also from the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai are still to be expected.

All-National Day of Voting begins in the early elections in the Daredi Confederation

The polls for Daredi voters have opened up all over the Confederation today with the exception of occupied territories in the eastern Wenigberg region under the control of Weniges militia. But this is the first time when the residents of the entire region of Haspera will get to vote since the recent return of seceded Hasperan territories into Daredland after the removal separatist leadership and dissolution of the self-declared Hasperan Republic. Apart from the political and government crisis in the capital Freihat the return of the rest of Haspera into Daredland was also a motivator for early elections because the people living there did not have the opportunity to participate in past Daredi elections under separatist occupation. PLFWCD members filled in the vacated positions of local governments in municipalities and the regional autonomous government. But now residents of reintegrated Hasperan parts will able to elect their own officials in all elections that are going to happen on this day.

Yesterday was the so-called ‘Day of Silence.’ Competitors in the electoral race were required to end their campaign and stop agitation. Yesterday was dedicated to the day of the voters thinking and making up their minds fully before going to cast the ballot today. The law enforcement had to watch over the streets all over the Daredi Confederation and partially have to do so today because supporters of Klare Sicht, LPM, PLFWCD and GU were tempted to clash or go out there and still campaign for their party or coalition. Even though that’s against the law. Officials of Klare Sicht, LPM, PLFWCD and GU formally called upon their supporters to obey the rules and not campaign anymore not to mention avoid provoking each other into a fight.

Today’s All-National Day of Voting will include all major elections at the same time like in the previous several instances. Daredland will be having a legislative election for the lower house National Council and the upper house Council of States chambers of the United Confederal Assembly, the regional election for the autonomous government of each region or state of the Confederation and finally local elections for municipal governments. Based on past experience electoral commissions believe that the ballots will be counted and votes declared for the legislative election first before declaring results for regional and local elections.

Union Prime Minister Jonathan Mollisal “Not Surprised” By New Vesvai’s Recognition Of Separatist Leadership

Prime Minister Jonathan Mollisal was swarmed by a pack of journalists from different networks this early morning when his limo pulled up to the building of the Union Parliament. Yesterday the Prime Minister had suspiciously disappeared and was unavailable to the press throughout the whole day. So it’s not surprising that the press came after him immediately when they saw the head of government. But at the time of this first morning encounter the Prime Minister walked straight ahead and refused to answer any questions while his security was keeping people away. The Prime Minister just quickly uttered at one of the microphones that all questions would be answered at the press conference later with a specific time and place given.

PM Jonathan Mollisal kept his promise. The impromptu press conference happened outside the Municipality of Fortwel where the head of government answered questions. And that press conference happened even earlier than the afternoon which was also a pleasant surprise for the press. The Prime Minister answered many questions but everybody was mostly curious on his position towards the recognition by New Vesvai of the so-called “Round Table–Free Vesvai” as authority over Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. In addition to that question the press was curious if the Union government had a position or an action plan. To which the Prime Minister responded.

“[I] am not surprised at all that New Vesvai recognized the so-called “Round Table–Free Vesvai” separatists leadership as the “legitimate government” over Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai or as the “Vesvaian government-in-exile.” That body is based in Perloveu, New Vesvai. It’s a political arm of armed terrorist guerillas that have been active on the Union’s territory on the Island of Vesvai next to the border of New Vesvai. The southern neighbors have been giving asylum to the defector-led separatist terrorists, arming them, training them, feeding them, clothing them, etc. Obviously it was only a matter of time. This doesn’t affect the relations between Fortwel and Perloveu because we had no relations to begin with. If the official Perloveu will only diplomatically and in other ways interact with their own created “government-in-exile” to us the situation remains the same. It just means we have to be careful. I haven’t yet spoken to President Russel Kelpir. I only spoke to a couple MPs from my own party at the Union Parliament when all of you or a lot of you saw me arriving there this morning. In short the Union government doesn’t have a position yet.”

MP Robert Praesedit Travels From Fortwel To Aurisi To Welcome Allied Military Aid

MP Robert Praesedit has travelled from Fortwel, Oblaren’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai to Aurisi, Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Reportedly he headed there to welcome allied military aid that has arrived to the Union stationed at Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. MP Praesedit didn’t wish to disclose which ally sent the Union the aid and said that this nation will publicly confirm it itself if it desires so. Right now it’s a matter of strategic secrecy. MP Robert Praesedit reportedly travelled to Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai by the request of Prime Minister Jonathan Mollisal. MP Praesedit is a member of the VHU party at the Union Parliament and was Minister of National Defense and Security of independent Dominion of Vesvai in the pre-Union days. The Prime Minister and the VHU party still admit that he’s their candidate for the post of either Defense Minister of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai or Chairman of the Security Council of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. So it’s unsurprising that given his credentials and him also being a Vesvaian the VHU party had sent MP Praesedit to receive the allied military aid on Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai.

Klare Sicht (Clear View) Alliance triumphs in the early legislative election, results of other early elections still being counted

The results of the early legislative election in the Daredi Confederation have been counted and revealed. People voted simultaneously for the lower house National Council and the upper house Council of States as both chambers of the United Confederal Assembly. The voter turnout was 61.35% in comparison to last legislative election’s 55.10% which was also a snap election. That can also be accounted for the fact that Daredland has since last elections reintegrated the break-away Hasperan territories that were controlled by the separatist self-declared Hasperan Republic. That obviously re-added the lost parts of the population.

And yet the reintegrated Hasperan territories have still for the most part voted for the PLFWCD coalition despite an admitted disappointment in this political force. But the true winner of this legislative election is the long-time poll leader Klare Sicht (Clear View) alliance which won 68.1%. By default it means that Klare Sicht made up of the Party for Central Approach (PCA) and the Social Liberal Party (SLP) will have an overwhelming majority in both chambers of the United Confederal Assembly and will lead the next Daredi government with the inclusion of the branches of Confederal Chancellery and the Confederal Cabinet.

The second place was taken by the Legacy Protection Movement (LPM) coalition which is leading the current Daredi government. LPM’s approval ratings have dropped during its term but some domestic and foreign policy achievements by its government and a close association with Klare Sicht helped it win 15.3% and finish second. The true loss has been for the PLFWCD which was once viewed as the force behind the Flaming Revolution. Now it has finished third with 8.4%. There’s only a 0.2% difference with the rival and ideological opposite GU coalition which finished fourth with 8.2%. Traditionally PLFWCD got its numbers predominantly from western Daredi voters and GU from eastern Daredi voters on the demarcation line with the self-declared Weniges Reich. Central Daredland went with Klare Sicht first and LPM second. 61.35% gives Klare Sicht such a clear majority that it basically doesn’t need to enter into a coalition with any other force. LPM, PLFWCD, GU and other parties that ran will all basically be reduced being the opposition to the new government of Klare Sicht. And since there’s a clear arch rivalry and ideological conflict between PLFWCD and GU while LPM has been in a close partnership with Klare Sicht it seems that Klare Sicht will not have much of a challenge when it forms its new government. An interesting election outcome to say the least.

Votes for regional and local elections for autonomous governments of regions and states as well as leaderships of municipalities are still being counted. If there’s a mix in result in those elections then maybe Klare Sicht could still get a clear standing opposition to its central government in Freihat made up of governments on locations.

Mobs And Gangs Gather At The Closed Border With New Vesvai To Provoke Unrest

It is the evening of Monday, October 5. Authorities on patrol at the border areas near New Vesvai have reported gatherings there by suspicious elements resembling gangs and mobs. They have basically settled in close to the position of the armed forces patrolling alongside the highly tense border with New Vesvai. The military officers are being distracted because they along with border guards will now have to watch out for any of those gathered trying to make a run towards the closed border with New Vesvai or trying to distract or even threaten the military. Which needs to remain focused on the border.

The military representation and the border patrol representation were not available for comment so far. But local authorities and police say that this gathering violates several laws. It doesn’t have a permit, it intrudes too close to the military positions which distracts the troops and could force them to use force to keep civilians away from the militarized border zones unavailable for public. Lastly this seems to be the second gathering protest against border closure which like last time could have excessive episodes of participants making a run for the border. The last such protest ended in all participants being detained and eventually let go. This time it’s unlikely the result will be any different. Learning from past mistakes and to allow the military to get back to focusing on the border the authorities planned precautionary measures of preemptive arrests over violations mentioned earlier.

Local authorities of the border areas demanded that the gathering along the border end otherwise the police would have to be sent to make sure the people end these events and walk separate way voluntarily or not.

VRA Troops Say Local Authorities Are Pointlessly Detaining People On The Other Side Of The Border

This morning the military of New Vesvai stationed on the highly tense border with the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai witnessed a scene that got their blood boiling but they couldn’t do anything about it. The troops saw a peaceful gathering on the other side of the border being dispersed and participants detained by police. Obviously the Vesvaian Revolutionary Army couldn’t invade the Union’s territory and protect those being detained to avoid encountering enemy forces and for New Vesvai to not be called the aggressor. Also any military action needs government approval so that felt outside the troops orders.

Instead the soldiers filmed the whole ordeal and invited journalists over to the border to provide the material of civil rights violations on the other side. Supposedly VRA did not even ask for the government’s permission before inviting the press. That’s something the military supposedly can do on its own. But with this treatment of people in the neighboring nation or at least in Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai once again being shown to New Vesvai’s citizens by the news media the citizens are going to be expecting action from the government to resist the abuse of the neighboring nation by their authorities.

New Vesvai’s Prime Minister Hale Aniho or the Parliament have yet to comment anything. At least the governing NR–BOA coalition with the majority at the Parliament has yet to comment anything. Opposition MPs have demonstratively displayed at the Parliament the flags of Vesvai without the Golden Eagle used by defectors, dissidents and Round Table–Free Vesvai as a sign of solidarity.

Authorities Detain Criminal Elements On The Border With New Vesvai

Police had arrived at the border with New Vesvai today where criminal elements of gangs and mobs gathered to stage a demonstration that was planned to start a riot. The controlled chaos would’ve created conditions where authorities would be preoccupied with returning control over the area and distracted enough from stopping attempted breaches of closed border with New Vesvai. The officers arrived to single out organizers and inform them along with participants that the gatherings did not have a permit. They were violating the local protest and loitering laws. The large gatherings also distracted the Armed Forces of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai stationed on the border nearby. The troops are supposed to keep focus on controlling the tense international border with New Vesvai alongside border police. But these gathered criminal elements were distracting the military and border guards from their duties. Finally the gatherings broke quarantine and anti-virus measures taken at the time of a pandemic through prohibited gatherings that had too many people in them. But in general authorities had records on participants and it showed involvement in criminal activities so these people had troubles with the law in the past.

After refusing to communicate with the officers in a civilized manner those gathered started arguing with the police. It soon led to the exchanges of forces but the officers managed to apprehend many on the spot. Others started running in all direction. Some even towards the military posts on the border which provoked some troops to aim weapons at those running towards them to scare them off. It took some time but eventually the officers managed to catch and apprehend everybody. Reinforcements were called with additional cars to take those arrested to the location of where they would be detained. Police that participated in the operation warned regular citizens to stay clear of the area from now and not try to gather at the border or imitate any actions of the gathered criminal elements.

Emissary For Adversary Exchanges (EAE) Esécăs Abstántâ Warns Oblaren And Vesvai Of Extended Sanctions Over Arrests And Absence Of Dialogue With The Protesting Side

Emissary for Adversary Exchanges (EAE) of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia Esécăs Abstántâ has stated that arrests and absence of dialogue with the protesting side could lead to increased sanctions against Oblaren and Vesvai. This statement is in reference to yesterday’s arrests of demonstrators on the New Vesvai and Union of Oblaren and Vesvai border. It mirrored past arrests by the local authorities of the Union, which were also criticized by the Sunrisian side, although those arrestees had since been let go. These arrests had been exposed by the media of New Vesvai with the help of testimony from the military of New Vesvai stationed on the border, before the media of Oblaren and Vesvai openly admitted to the arrests by categorizing the gathered participants as “criminal elements.” In fact, when the demonstration was only gathering, the media of Oblaren and Vesvai was already setting up those gathered as “mobs and gangs” which were planning to start mass riots and further oppose the closure of the border and an existing travel ban with New Vesvai. In fact, that was the reason for why the past similar protests had their participants arrested.

Emissary Esécăs Abstántâ said that if the current arrestees are not set free, if new arrests of peaceful protests continue and if there is no dialogue with the protesting side, then Sunrisia will reserve the right to take action from its’ side and extend restrictions on Oblaren and Vesvai even further, which has already been done once in the past. This time, the Emissary says that Sunrisia could finally extend sanctions on Oblaren and Vesvai from individual sanctions against the government of the Union and those associated with it, to state sanctions against the country of Oblaren and Vesvai. In the past, Sunrisia avoided taking this step in order to strictly punish the government, but not harm the people of the country. However, with individual sanctions nowhere left to go, promoting sanctions from individual ones to state ones is the last step left before a complete embargo.

A timetable for when Oblaren and Vesvai should make sure its’ local authorities set the detainees free has not been given. This has left it up to diplomatic interpretation, which could only read that the Sunrisian government is telling to do so “immediately” without stating it outright. The past practices shows that the demand might still be met, which is why sanctions are not being extended without warning straight up like they have often been in the past in regards to the former sovereign country of the Dominion of Vesvai before the Union was formed and also against the Union itself after it was formed, this time affecting Vesvai and Oblaren as 2 parts of that same sanctioned country.

New Vesvai Condemns Arrests On The Other Side Of The Border

New Vesvai’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs had condemned the arrests that have happened on the side of the border that belongs to the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Yesterday the authorities in the neighboring nation arrested people that had gathered near the border for a demonstration. This was witnessed by the troops of the Vesvaian Revolutionary Army stationed on the Union border and they reported this to New Vesvai’s news media. Later that day the news media set in Vesvaian territories of Oblaren and Vesvai admitted to the arrests after New Vesvai’s colleagues reported on it. But the other side’s propaganda obviously defended the arrests and discredited those demonstrating.

The Foreign Ministry condemned the arrests and demanded for people’s release while warning that there be no more arrests of the pro-independence or anti-government activists on the other side. But New Vesvai has nothing left in the arsenal to use against the Union. New Vesvai already has no relations with the neighbor and Round Table–Free Vesvai has been recognized as the official government of the neighboring Vesvaian territories. That’s why the Foreign Ministry and Prime Minister Hale Aniho welcomed the diplomatic response of the Sunrisians who condemned arrests, called for release, no new arrests and also for dialogue with the opposing side. New Vesvai’s government couldn’t adjust its statement to mirror the Sunrisian statement because of New Vesvai not recognizing any authority apart from Round Table–Free Vesvai. The Sunrisians still seem to recognize the other side’s authority on location so that’s why they called for dialogue. But the Foreign Ministry welcomed that the Sunrisians still have placed where to extend their sanctions pressure on the Union if the demands aren’t met so New Vesvai’s government sees potential in that working.

Prime Minister Hale Aniho To Meet With Round Table–Free Vesvai

New Vesvai’s Prime Minister Hale Aniho will be meeting with Round Table–Free Vesvai. It’s now official. The meeting would be the first of its kind before and since New Vesvai’s recognized Round Table–Free Vesvai as the sole leadership of the neighboring Vesvaian territories. In turn the Union’s authority and sovereignty over the neighboring territories is not recognized anymore. It never has been fully but now its not recognized officially as only Round Table–Free Vesvai is recognized as the legitimate neighboring leadership temporarily based in New Vesvai before it could take its rightful place in Aurisi. The meeting of PM Aniho and Round Table–Free Vesvai will be solidifying New Vesvai’s recognition and demonstration of its view of the defector rebel government as the only sole neighboring government on the Island of Vesvai. The dialogue on the future of the neighboring Vesvaian territories would only be held by New Vesvai only with Round Table–Free Vesvai. It hasn’t been decided yet if the meeting will be happening in the headquarters of Round Table–Free Vesvai in Perloveu or elsewhere or if it would be happening in any of the government buildings. Cabinet officials suggested that both options are possible since there probably will be more than one meeting in the days, weeks, months and years to follow. Unless Round Table–Free Vesvai finally takes its rightful place in Aurisi earlier.

Internal Troops Meet With Union Military On The Border With New Vesvai To Consult

Internal Troops had arrived at the border with New Vesvai to meet up with the troops of the Armed Forces of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai stationed at the tense border. They came to coordinate actions after provocative policies by New Vesvai and Sunrisia coupled with some provocateurs of unrest inside the Union. Most recently those apprehended at the border. Without going into strategic military secrets the commanders of both forces said that they logically divided up roles and areas of responsibility in case of anything. Internal Troops would take on domestic enemies in case a new wave of terrorist guerilla insurgency erupts while the regular army would remain focused on the border regarding external enemies. Internal Troop commanders said its important especially now when internal provocateurs started gathering at the border and trying to distract the army from its duties. Internal Troops will also be sharing their experience from fighting guerillas in the last and most recent but brief terrorist guerilla insurgency in Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Both forces have not excluded exercises at the border to show unity among all military forces and to prepare for challenges on all fronts. This would also be a psychological move to make potential enemies reconsider any hostile actions. For next upcoming couple of days Internal Troops plan to stay together with the regular army on the border.

Convet Votes To Extend Sanctions Against The Union Of Oblaren And Vesvai From Individual To State Ones

Convet (legislature/parliament) of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia.

Without waiting for longer, the lawmakers at the Convet of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia have voted to extend sanctions against the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. The extension refers to an upgrade or promotion of sanctions against the country from individual sanctions against the government and those associated with it, to state sanctions against the country of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. This is the first time the sanctions had been raised to this stage, as Sunrisia did not even extend sanctions against the former independent Vesvai to this level, prior to the formation of the Union with Oblaren. Now these sanctions would equally encompass both Vesvai and Oblaren as 2 parts of the Union.

Before going into force as Sunrisian law, the sanctions legislation would have to be signed by President Addél Dîlectên. Until then, they have been adopted by the Convet. Speaker of the Convet Flórên Infána declared the passage of promoted sanctions after the lawmakers have voted for them with a majority in favor. Speaker Infána added that the Convet understands the negative impact that these sanctions could have on the citizens, considering that Sunrisia had avoided upgrading the sanctions from individual to state ones for a while to avoid affecting citizens and only restrict the government officials. However, the Speaker added that the citizens of Oblaren and Vesvai could try to impact the situation to undo the reason for which Sunrisia has adopted all sanctions it has from the past to this day, which have remained in effect ever since and the new ones will come into effect once the President signs the bill. Therefore, the Speaker supposedly either expressed a personal opinion or voiced the popular opinion on behalf of the Convet that the citizens of Oblaren and Vesvai or even the government of the Union will reverse some “punishable actions” before the sanctions could negatively impact the political and socio-economic development of the country. Speaker Infána later answered journalist questions with a confirmation that Oblaren and Vesvai has not gotten into a situation, where Sunrisia could consider an embargo, however, according to the Speaker’s words – “…the Union government still has where to fall even lower than it has been to this point…”

Earlier, before the Convet voted and was still in preparation to do so, Vice President of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia Césâ Gáûdĕr expressed support for those repressed in Oblaren and Vesvai, saying that the President will support whatever decision the Convet will make, but that the administration will also push forward its’ own initiatives to influence a positive outcome with repressions ended and freedoms protected. The Vice President did not get any more specific with that.

Internal Troops And Union Military Hold An Impromptu Military Drill On New Vesvai’s Border

Internal Troops and the troops of the Armed Forces of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai have started an impromptu military exercise on the border with New Vesvai. According to commanders this exercise is meant to improve cooperation and co-activity of internal forces and regular army in the field. Also it’s a sharing and exchange of experience and advice from successful operations in their own field of service coupled with each of the military’s division’s improving their own skill-set. Obviously it’s also a demonstrative drill meant to deter unfriendly forces and nations outside of the Union and inside of it. The unplanned drill coincides with increased efforts by New Vesvai and now Sunrisia to undercut and destabilize the Union. Both these nations are already using every strategic move in their disposal to harm the Union. They’re only running short of declaring war which is an option that the Union isn’t considering but will always be prepared for. Commanders claim that the New Vesvaians and the Sunrisians are testing the Union but the Union is calmly passing all those tests. They’re seeing how far they can push and the Union is drawing pretty clear red lines with a strong response. That’s why the Internal Troops and the military believe this is an intense situation but not on the level of needing to worry the Union’s calm, ROVAA or any allies around the world. The military has reminded that Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai has already received early military aid from an undisclosed ally so the Union has allies standing with it who will also be without a doubt ready to help in any moment of actual need or serious challenge.

VRA Watching The Drill On The Other Side Of The Border

The Vesvaian Revolutionary Army is watching the impromptu military drill across the border started by Internal Troops and the regular army of the Armed Forces of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai in Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. VRA is staying attentive. According to commanders on location they’re not expecting any excessive behavior from the neighbors. But being vigilant is still important because of the number of clashes that had happened on this border during drills by either of the sides or even both sides at the same time. Also drills often end up as a cover-up for offensive military action so that’s what VRA is looking out for too. Staying completely calm during this drill by the neighbor is also a difficult and an unlikely strategy. The press of the Union and also the military chiefs on the other side have made it clear that their drill is happening directly with New Vesvai in mind. It’s being presented as a defensive drill with internal forces and the military training for a supposed defense against an invasion by a foreign nation and to suppress an insurgency like the one that the rebels had waged at least two times. VRA isn’t planning a drill in response but in case it happens it will be in an impromptu fashion just like the Union’s. Or at least it would be made to look like an impromptu one but be set up and prepared better than the Union’s. More drills and more resources could be seen. But that’s for a hypothetical drill that’s not confirmed as being planned.

National Defense Consultant Líbêll Aûctórên, Minister Of Security Vîsár Inpétăs And Minister Of International Relations Vénî Adsécĕr Visit New Vesvai

National Defense Consultant Líbêll Aûctórên, Minister of Security of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia Vîsár Inpétăs and Minister of International Relations of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia Vénî Adsécĕr, have arrived in New Vesvai on an official visit. This is the first time any of them have travelled abroad in person since the beginning of the RETRIT-20/PVAX-20 pandemic, which still has not ended. However, not only have all 3 travelled abroad in general, but they have all gone as part of the same delegation. This is definitely a risky move as the Dîlectên administration has simultaneously sent 3 of its’ Ministers as part of the same delegation on a foreign official visit in person, during a time, when physical interaction and absence of proper distance between people is discouraged. However, Vósâ Lócīta, Media Representative for the Administration of the President of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia, has stated that all 3 Ministers and other members of their delegation will travel with respirators, masks, gloves, hand sanitizer and observe social distance, while also reminding that New Vesvai has not declared to be a country to have any cases of either of the 2 viruses and has closed borders similarly to Sunrisia to make sure that the pandemic does not infiltrate that country.

National Defense Consultant Líbêll Aûctórên, Minister of Security Vîsár Inpétăs and Minister of International Relations Vénî Adsécĕr will be meeting Prime Minister Hale Aniho of New Vesvai as well as their New Vesvaian counterparts. Possibly they will visit the Parliament of New Vesvai. Even though the Sunrisian government has not reviewed its’ position on the status of the central government of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai and has not made moves towards propping up Vesvaian rebel organizations based in exile, the participation of Minister of International Relations Vénî Adsécĕr in the delegation and being part of this official visit, has generated speculations that the Minister could get in touch with or even meet with such political formations like Round Table–Free Vesvai, which only New Vesvai, a country that provides sanctuary for Round Table–Free Vesvai and Vesvaian defectors, recognizes as the government-in-exile of independent Vesvai, which does not exist, but which Vesvaian defectors seek to make sovereign and independent by separating Vesvaian territories from the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai.

Meanwhile, National Defense Consultant Líbêll Aûctórên and Minister of Security Vîsár Inpétăs will be visiting a couple of military bases in New Vesvai, including those belonging to the military of New Vesvai, as well as the headquarters of the Sunrisian Dogmanan Command (SUNDOCOM) operated by the Sunrisian Defense Force (SDF). In addition, experts and political analysts are positive that National Defense Consultant Aûctórên and Minister of Security Inpétăs will visit a training base in New Vesvai used to help prepare the Vesvaian rebel forces made up of defectors. Even though the Dîlectên administration has not declared such official intentions, opposition politicians have said that the delegation should visit the rebel training camp in New Vesvai and be open with the Sunrisian government’s support to the Vesvaian rebels against the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai, which, according to them, is denying the Vesvaian people independence that they want and which the Vesvaian regime sacrificed for personal pro-Union goals and power goals.

New Vesvai Hosts Sunrisian Delegation

New Vesvai’s government has welcomed a foreign delegation from Sunrisia at an important political and historic moment especially in relations with the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. Sunrisian National Defense Consultant Líbêll Aûctórên, Defense Minister Vîsár Inpétăs and Foreign Minister Vénî Adsécĕr have come to New Vesvai in person as part of their nation’s delegation. Sunrisia is a nation that’s recently become virus-free and keeps closed borders. New Vesvai never had the virus and has upheld closed borders to avoid the virus coming in. Officials have ensured that all precautions have been taken by the guests themselves and by the New Vesvaian state to make sure that this visit will uphold all public health standards during the pandemic.

Officials say it’s an important visit not only to show common strategy towards the situation in the Union but also to demonstrate a continued commitment to a defense alliance between the nations. New Vesvai is an MDAA associate member and host the command headquarters of the Sunrisian armed forces for the Dogmanan region. A commitment to New Vesvai’s security is an important message to send at the time of when the Union is holding aggressive drills near the shared border according to officials. The foreign delegation will be taken to the Parliament to meet with MPs, taken to the Sunrisian command headquarters for the region to meet their own troops and cabinet officials also want to take the delegation to the training base of Vesvaian rebels. New Vesvai’s government is denying it wants to offer that the Sunrisians adopt the same policies towards the Union as New Vesvai has and help prop up the Vesvaian defector rebellion over the Union’s rule in northern Vesvai.

Today Sunrisian officials are only meeting their counterparts in New Vesvai’s government but tomorrow they’ll meet with New Vesvai’s Prime Minister Hale Aniho. Today the head of government is occupied with her historic and symbolic meeting with Round Table–Free Vesvai as the legitimate government-in-exile of independent Vesvai. The Foreign Ministry said that they might also try to get the Sunrisian delegation to visit and meet with Round Table–Free Vesvai as part of asking Sunrisians to support the rebel government and the rebel armed forces too. Diplomats say the Sunrisians are helping to prepare the military forces of the rebels in the training camp but haven’t made steps towards support their political movements just yet.

Prime Minister Hale Aniho Meets With Round Table–Free Vesvai In Exiled Government’s Perloveu Headquarters

As mentioned earlier New Vesvai’s Prime Minister Hale Aniho is meeting with Round Table–Free Vesvai today. This meeting is happening at the Perloveu headquarters of the defector government-in-exile. The historic moment captured on camera was when PM Hale Aniho shook hands with Acido Soran who is Chairman of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai. And the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai is part of Round Table–Free Vesvai together with similar political bodies like the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai. The headquarters of Round Table–Free Vesvai in New Vesvai’s capital Perloveu actually started out as the headquarters of the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai only. This is where the formation of the government-in-exile Round Table–Free Vesvai was agreed on by the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai, the National Council of Vesvai and the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai. Even before the formal meeting started PM Hale Aniho already invited members of Round Table–Free Vesvai to visit the government’s headquarters and also the Parliament where they would receive a warm welcome.

Baggnagia on the verge of the first presidential election since the Reunification of North and South

JUGAC, BAGGNAGIA – Candidates for the post of the President of Baggnagia have lined up and engaging in debates with each other while further running their campaigns. This entire heated race rages on as Baggnagia approaches the date of its first presidential election since North and South were reunited. So this is more than a presidential election and everyone involved realizes it. That’s why it’s so passionate for the candidates and the supporters of various candidates. Everybody wants to become the first Baggnagian president since the Reunification and to win this historic election.

The campaigns of most candidates primarily focus on domestic policy, reforms and combating the RETRIT-20 and PVAX-20 viruses in Baggnagia. But they are also forced to acknowledge the foreign policy aspect because those are the questions they are receiving from moderators at the debates. The foreign policy aspect primarily focuses on the defense relationship with Sunrisia and whether it’s possible to coexist with Ventismarian neighbors since Baggnagia has become somewhat of a black sheep on the continent. The candidates obviously have different approaches to these interconnected issues of Baggnagian place in the world. Some are more similar to each other while others are opposite to the programs of opponents. The issue in the gray area between domestic and foreign policy is obviously Pamerava. It’s a passionate problem causing heated discussions on it because of different approaches of the candidates ranging from more moderate to radical ones, from diplomatic to military solutions.

This specific presidential race has the biggest number of candidates in modern Baggnagian history not just since the Reunification but also during the division into North and South along with Baggnagia that existed prior to the break-up. The Central Election Commission and also the Military Council of Baggnagia are preoccupied with ways how to ensure safe and sterile conditions for the elections. Baggnagia seeks to avoid past mistakes when with best attempts to avoid the virus spread North and South Baggnagia had a Joint Double-Referendum on Reunification and the new constitution for a reunified Baggnagian state. That was the vote that was historic for reuniting Baggnagian state but led to the first big wave of RETRIT-20 and PVAX-20 spreading across Baggnagia. The next events that helped spread the virus were the Socialist Coup, the subsequent successful military operation to undo the Socialist Coup and finally the heated phase of the Pamerava conflict.

BREAKING: Guerilla Forces Form A Rebel Military – Vesvaian Territorial Liberation Force (VTLF)

Flag used by Vesvaian expats, dissidents and defectors living in New Vesvai, the National Liberation Movement, the National Liberation Committee of Independent Vesvai associated with the National Liberation Movement, the National Council of Vesvai, the National Council of Rebellion of Vesvai and the Vesvaian Territorial Liberation Force (VTLF). Variant without the Golden Eagle.

Rebel guerilla forces of Vesvaian defectors that have been receiving military supplies and training at a training base or a couple of more centers in the northern part of New Vesvai closer to the Union’s border that are smaller but similar have declared themselves an official military force: Vesvaian Territorial Liberation Force (VTLF). VTLF presents itself as the official military and armed forces at this time of a sought after independent Vesvaian state that will be formed after Vesvaian land is freed from the rule of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai and has its sovereignty and independence restored. VTLF claims that its purpose is to be ready to fight a Vesvaian war of independence against the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai and remain the military of an independent Vesvaian state that it will serve and defend after sovereignty is restored.

DEVELOPING: VTLF Gives An Oath To Independent Vesvai And Round Table–Free Vesvai As Independent Vesvai’s Government And Commander Of Military

The troops of the new VTLF are giving their oath today to serve independent Vesvai and to follow Round Table–Free Vesvai as the rightful government-in-exile of independent Vesvai. As that rightful government of independent Vesvai Round Table–Free Vesvai is also the commander of independent Vesvai’s military which VTLF has declared itself to be. Today VTLF is engaging in impromptu ceremonies of celebrating its formation with inaugurating itself as the military of independent Vesvai and with VTLF troops giving their oath to serve and protect independent Vesvai which they will first seek to liberate. New Vesvai’s government or at least Prime Minister Hale Aniho said she would not support any offensive action from the territory of New Vesvai but VTLF only answers to Round Table–Free Vesvai now which means that the Prime Minister would have to convince the government-in-exile of independent Vesvai to make sure that VTLF doesn’t launch the first offensive.

New Vesvai’s VHU Party Says That The Nation Is Making A Big Mistake By “Harboring” A Rebel Military That Is Getting Ready To Wage An Independence War Against The Union: Criticizes New Vesvai’s Government

The local VHU party in New Vesvai which is an opposition party outside the government after not getting any votes in the last general election has criticized New Vesvai’s government for “harboring” VTLF. New Vesvai’s VHU didn’t say anything about Round Table–Free Vesvai but did target the military force VTLF. VHU party targeted New Vesvai’s government for harboring, arming and training an “improvised military” made up of guerillas with questionable backgrounds and methods to prepare for a separatist war in Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai against the Union rule there to establish an independent Vesvaian state. VHU believes that New Vesvai is becoming a sponsor of aggression against the Union by forces now outside of New Vesvai’s direct control but using New Vesvai’s territory. Additionally VHU said that New Vesvai is putting itself as a target for a counter-attack in response to what VTFL and all Vesvaian defector forces would do against the Union. Other parties in New Vesvai in the government and the opposition were this time on the same page in uniting against New Vesvai’s VHU by referring to it as a “New Vesvai’s division of the ruling party in Vesvai’s part of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai indefinitely and one of the ruling parties in the government of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai in Fortwel.” Finally it was also pointed out that the VHU party in the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai is the party of Prime Minister of the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai Jonathan Mollisal. The situation between two VHU parties in both neighboring countries is similar to how New Vesvai and the former pre-Union Dominion of Vesvai both had their own AIT coalitions which originally started out only as a single AIT coalition when there was only a single Vesvaian nation and a single Vesvaian sovereign state.

A New Batch Of Sunrisian Military Instructors Arrives In New Vesvai

After the recent important visit by National Defense Consultant Líbêll Aûctórên, Minister of Security of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia Vîsár Inpétăs and Minister of International Relations of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia Vénî Adsécĕr along with a Sunrisian delegation to New Vesvai, a new batch of military instructors from the Sunrisian Defense Force (SDF) has been sent to New Vesvai. These new instructors are set to begin a new round of military training in New Vesvai.

Officially, the Department of Security of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia has stated that the new military instructors would be training the Vesvaian Revolutionary Army (VRA), the official military of New Vesvai. However, investigative journalists, political analysts and some opposition politicians believe that the Sunrisian government and military are not disclosing that these instructors are being sent to actually train not only the VRA of New Vesvai but also the recently-formed Vesvaian Territorial Liberation Force (VTLF), which was created from rebel military formations made up of Vesvaian defectors living in New Vesvai. These military formations are referred to sometimes as rebels and sometimes as guerillas, being the forces behind at least one of the recent guerilla insurgencies in the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai, specifically the Vesvaian sector. Yesterday, these formations declared themselves the Vesvaian Territorial Liberation Force (VTLF), a self-proclaimed official military of an independent Vesvaian state they want to create out of the Vesvaian territories within the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai. The service personnel of the new VTLF to the an independent Vesvaian state and to Round Table–Free Vesvai, which they and New Vesvai recognize as the legitimate government-in-exile of an independent Vesvaian state separate from Oblaren and Vesvai.

Meanwhile, some of the investigative journalists, political analysts and opposition politicians claim that the new Sunrisian instructors are not even being sent to train both the VRA and the VTLF, but are solely being sent to only train the Vesvaian defector guerilla or rebel forces, that have formed VTLF, in training bases that New Vesvai has originally set up for defector military formations on its’ territory. The deployment of military instructors to only train the VRA of New Vesvai is a government, military and intelligence cover-up for an increased support to prepping the defector guerilla and rebel military formations in their strife for a completed transformation into a decent standard military force that VTLF has proclaimed itself to be. The evaluation of this policy based on the shared conspiracy they uphold, has generated mixed reactions among these experts to Sunrisian approach towards the situation between New Vesvai and the Union of Oblaren and Vesvai, as well as propping up Vesvaian separatism and rebellion against the Union rule from abroad and outside the Union’s border.

Vósâ Lócīta, Media Representative for the Administration of the President of the Nationalist Republic of Sunrisia, was not available for comment regarding the alleged Dîlectên administration and in larger scope a government, military and intelligence cover-up of the fact that the new Sunrisian military instructors are being sent to New Vesvai only to train the guerilla/rebel military formations of Vesvaian defectors there, or forces that have now named themselves the Vesvaian Territorial Liberation Force (VTLF).
