[Sound of the door opens and closes]

Borik: When am I getting out? You can't keep me here.

Emma: Get out? At this rate, you'll end up being hung in Romania.

[Chair being drawn]

Borik: Bullshit. I come home a hero. While your nation will fall from the inside.

Emma: Really? Because currently, your "government" has denied your existence.

Borik: (Unintelligible). Nevermind that! I'm not talking. [He speaks in Romanian: Brothers United]

Emma: Not talking? Talk now and save your life the pain.

Borik: How else could you hurt me. You Krauts have already destroyed my nation!

Borick: Zoja stays in Hamburg until the situation in Romania ends.

Emma: It will be done if your information proves to be fruitful.

Borick: I presume this is being recorded.

Emma: Yes. Talk.

Borick: There will be massive attacks in Berlin on April the 16th on 9:30 using Romanian governmental support. They wanted me to take the blame for the gunshot to loosen the lockdown.

Interview 2018-K-INC-2-3.

Date: 16/5/2018 1400

Foreword: Interview on the Gendarmenmarkt attack.

Interviewer: Lieutenant Colonel Clemens Schmuck.

Interviewee: Police officer Jerald [REDACTED]

Play tape.

Schmuck: Are you sure you want to do this Jerald? For goodness sake, you're shot!

Jerald: It was a through and through. Simple patch up. I want to do this. I have to talk about this to someone that won't treat me with such pity.

Schmuck: Fine. Let's begin with how it began.

Jerald: We had just received reports of the Reichstag when a black van drove up to the checkpoint. We told them that they could not pass since a lockdown was in effect. I heard the back door open...

Schmuck: You don't need to do this Jerald.

Jerald: Dave ordered them to stay in the van and drew his gun. He didn't draw it fast enough and a man with a rifle walked over and shot him. Several times. I dove to cover as more shots rang out. I don't know who the shots belonged to. The only thing I knew was that after about 20 seconds members of the crowd in the square began to fall down. One after the other. I got to my feet and found only 4 terrorists standing. I had time to shoot 3 before the last one hit me. I fell down and shot the last person in the foot. I don't remember anything other than that. I'm done.

[Sounds of sobbing]

Schmuck: You did well Jerald. You did really well.

[Tape ends]

I move that we give Jerald the bronze star. He did well-Lieutenant Colonel Clemens Schmuck

[Cantonese Union]

Cantonese Armed Forces Hainan Naval Base, [REDACTED], Hainan Province, Cantonese Union
April 16, 2018, time unknown (?, UTC+/-?)

The command center was full of operatives monitoring the progress of the naval exercises near Hainan. Defense Minister Chang Wanquan was one of the people actively monitoring the exercises and making sure that everything from was functioning as intended. After triple-checking that the date on the calendar is correct, he was generally impressed with the professionalism displayed by the naval forces. He suddenly got a call on his government-issued phone that was on an encrypted network. The call was from the head of the ESF.
He picked up the phone and wasn't even able to greet him, because as soon as he picked it up, Chan started briefing him: "We're deploying more agents in the Kaiserreich under the guise of helping our European allies because the situation is getting out of control. Our plainclothes agents interrogated a person with knowledge of the failed assassination plot and found out that there was going to be a large-scale terror attack at 9:30 their time and he was right - the attacks on German government structures and citizens began at 9:33."

Chang always thought that the Germans were ruthlessly efficient in virtually everything and could not believe that they could let something like this happen, but his largest concern was about the source since the ESF chief kept going on about "bringing them back to help our agents" at the emergency briefing.
"Are you going to bring the asset to safety?"

"No, he was disposed of. According to him, the Germans were close to capturing two people who also knew about the plot. The agents decided that evacuating him to some European nation or to the homeland was too much of a risk, especially since he had no knowledge of what was going to occur after the initial bombing." Chan replied. "Our current task is influencing German officers with offers of life in the Cantonese Union and the SAR's, the flamboyant lifestyle they could afford because of our booming economy, the privilege, things like that in exchange for valuable intelligence. This ends my briefing on the situation in the Kaiserreich, I will be rushing to Hong Kong now since the journos there want me to make a public statement. Agents will be on the ground in 10-12 hours."

"Understood and good luck. The armed forces will be on full alert now, even though we should not have any military threats." Chang hung up and gave the command for the military to go into full alert.

The head of the External Security Force made a public statement on the current situation and announced the actions the ESF will take to safeguard regional stability. Cantonese and Hong Kong newspapers published his statement the following day. Two excerpts are available - one is from the Cantonese media outlet SCMP, the other one is an opinion article by a Hong Kong based outlet which is more critical of the authorities.

"All citizens have been told to stay inside their homes. Anyone outside during the curfew is to be detained. You have permission to use deadly force if they resist. One of the terrorists made a mistake. He left his phone on his person. We went through the calls records and traced 70% of his calls to one house in downtown Berlin. We believe it is the HQ of the R.L.F and yes it is confirmed through the Bundesnachrichtendienst that it was them. Beware, Our reports believe these suspects are trained soldiers smuggled in from Romania with heavy weapons. Come in with shock and awe and clear the house as fast as possible. Do me a favor and try to capture some bozgors."

OOC: Cantonese Union are you saying that Emma Alt and Sergeant Tonkin are your spies. Also, can you clarify your post a little? Like who are the two people who knew about the plot and the man you killed? (I like the reference you made with the date)

[Deutschess Kaiserreich]

“This right in. We have reports of gunfire in downtown Berlin. It is suspected to be a army raid due to previous reports of the 5th stormtrooper motorized division in the area. Residents in downtown Berlin have been told by the government to remain inside. They warn that anyone spotted in the open in the downtown area will be detained for the remainder of the incident…”

Except from “Frederick Adams blog”.

Foreword: Frederick was a UN security officer in the room during the kaiserin’s speech.

[OPEN BLOG]

“The room was a mess of babbling bureaucracy as the representatives discussed what had recently happened in Berlin. Many whispered fears that if such an attack could go undetected could such an attack happen in their own nations. Some however whispered rumors that this attack was a false flag operation carried out by the kaiserreich herself. The room went silent as the Kaiserin stepped into the room. She was as beautiful as ever but had the face of exhaustion and her arm was in a sling. She walked up to the speech podium winching as she placed her hand onto the podium. “Today Berlin was shaken by a series of terrorist attacks by Romanian nationalists. Just a few hours ago the R.L.F hacked into our national news and claimed responsibility. Berlin just an hour ago was finally clear of any danger as security officers have arrested a Romanian stabbed. My nation has been shaken to core. I will not stand for such attacks on my fatherland and now I speak directly to the R.L.F. You may have killed many innocents and brave officers. You may have destroyed landmarks and obliterated the streets. But you have no killed our spirit, culture, and confidence. We will stand against your tidal wave of terror and hate together. Trust me Makarov… The kaiserriech will strike back…”
