The suspected murder has united the Volksrat and Senate, and there have been cries for war, as the whoop-por-whil of They have killed a man as kind as God! broke out in the more concervitive parts of the government.

The Kaiser has been given solace from the presses in his greif, and he paparatizi are being kept away from the palace.

Following the brutal uprising in Greater New Poland, the Reichstag has voted in favour of Kaiser Franz' plans to allow those fleeing the violence in Polandia asylum and resettlement in the Konföderation. The vote was almost unanmimous, owing to the shared German heritage of both Greater Celibrae and Greater New Poland and the Kaiser's rousing speech, in which he likened the refugees to fallen brothers and sisters. He stated that the Celibraean nation must "help our siblings in their time of need".

Furthermore, the Kaiser has officially backed the government of New Educandi in its stance to provide safety to Fürst Norman II.

Following the discontinuing of the New Polandian Monarchy and the subsequent establishment of a fascist government in Greater New Poland, the Government of the Federal Eastern Union has announced its stance regarding the new fascist regime. Such announcement was part of Imperator Li Zichin's speech today in Capital Palace, Caisiphon:

"Yesterday, the Monarchy of Greater New Poland has been overthrown; instead, a fascist regime has taken its place. Fascism and ideologies supported by this regime pose an explicit threat against the national interests of the Federal Eastern Union - we have seen Velinka and the Pan-Slavic Freedom League, and we will not tolerate another of our neighbors fall under fascism. For such reasons, the Federal Eastern Union refuses to recognize the new Polandian Fascists as a formal government and would vow support for those that resist such fascist regime. Furthermore, the Federal Eastern Union hereby states that, while condemning the actions of the new fascist regime, any attacks on Unionite citizens and the Unionite Embassy within Greater New Poland would be taken as an act of war against the Federal Eastern Union."

The announcement from the Imperator was followed by the subsequent announcement of DEFCON 3, calling on the mobilization of all active military personnel and the preparation of reserve personnel throughout the nation. 45 of the Embassy Guards that had been stationed upon the Unionite Embassy in Krazaw since 2000, have been readied for an armed escort of embassy personnel remaining in the embassy.

TheHoly Thracian Empire condemns Greater New Poland's Fascist Regime!

Imperial Chancellor Klaus Iohannis in front of the Imperial Senate

After the recent events in Greater New Poland, the Senate of the Holy Thracian Empire, with the complete support of the Holy Emperor, has decided to officially condemn the new fascist government of Greater New Poland in the name of the Emperor, Senate, and People of Thrace. The Holy Thracian Empire considers the way the new fascist government has come to power completely unconstitutional and undemocratic, and refuses and will continue to refuse to recognize the fascist government as Greater New Poland's legitimate government. To quote the Imperial Chancellor:

"This so called fascist government is a threat to the stability of the region, and to all democratic countries in the world. Yesterday, the monarchy of Greater New Poland has been overthrown in a completely violent and undemocratic way, and this sick government that calls itself fascist has taken its place. The new proclaimed fascist government of Greater New Poland is threatening to ruin the good relations that existed until now between Thrace and Greater New Poland, and their actions contravene with the foreign interests of the Holy Empire. This is why, the Holy Thracian Empire is not going to recognize the fascist government as the new government of Greater New Poland. There aren't many nations that like Thrace, have suffered so much because of regimes that called themselves fascist. We hope that the people of Greater New Poland will wake up and see the danger in which their country is in right now. As of now, the Holy Thracian Empire is going to ensure asylum to all Greater New Polandian citizens requesting it, running away from the fascist menace. The Imperial Armed Forces will be put under alert, and we hope that the current authorities will at least show cooperation in the evacuation of the Thracian embassy and Thracian citizens from the territories of Greater New Poland. If any Thracian citizen will be harmed, or any consulates or the Thracian embassy will be attacked, it will be considered a direct act of war against the Holy Empire. May the Eight bless us in these dark days."

Following this declaration, the Thracian embassy and the Thracian consulates in Greater New Poland shall be evacuated as soon as possible, all secret documents will be destroyed. The Imperial Knights and the units of the Security and Protection Service that are protecting the embassy and the consulates will armed escort the members of the embassy, of the consulates, and any willing Thracian citizens out of Greater New Poland to the respective nearest airports, from where they will be evacuated by civilian aircraft. After leaving the airspace of Greater New Poland, all aircraft carrying Thracian citizens will be protected by units of the Imperial Navy.

Meanwhile, the Imperial Armed Forces have been put on DEFCON 3, and there are talks about a partial mobilization, especially in the Theme of Scythia. Rumors about a possible military exercise have also been heard.

The Emperor is also going to later hold a speech about the situation, and he's currently talking with the Imperial Crown Council in the Great Palace of Veranium.

Mallaskan embassy ambassador Viktor Kozlov has shocked Mallaska and the world this morning as he made the statement that he will not comply with Polandian eviction orders, and instead stated that he will stay in the Mallaskan embassy along with much of his staff and security, as many of them have refused as well. Much of the Mallaskasn embassy's civilian service staff, has however been evacuated. When asked, Director of Diplomatic Security Anton Andreyev stated that he"Deeply understands the decision for the Ambassador and the security staff to stay" but also stated as "It is an imminent disaster".

Meanwhile, while the Mallaskan government has been working to extract Mallaskan nationals from Greater New Poland, many Mallaskans minorities have stated refusal for the offer. Instead, many have stated that they will stay with their families and stand up against Fascism.

When asked why he has refused his eviction order, Ambassador Kozlov has stated the following:

"Our great nation has fought against fascism for nearly a century. It has spilled much Mallaskan blood, and it seems to me that more will be spilled in the future. However, as ambassador representing Mallaska, I feel it is my duty to embody the values of fighting fascism despite overwhelming odds and inspiring global resistance to this corrupt ideology. I will likely die, but I will die fighting our state's greatest enemy."

It is unclear the Mallaskan Prime Minister's response to this currently.
