Official statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
It has been brought to the Arpasian government's upmost attention that the recent events have transpired has resulted in heated debates between nations over what in essence is the practice of slavery and the market's rapidly-increasing popularity, such nations/organizations such as Westmonkwick, Yusufzai Swat, IDIOTS INC, Fenwick Foundation and many others have contributed in the grow of the slave trade in this era. While before this time, a majority of the multiverse's population believes that open selling and usage of slaves by nations has completely died down over the centuries, the mysterious resurgence of slavery, dubbed by some as "The 2022 Resurgence of slavery" is of most concern by many across the multiverse, and the fact that neither civilians nor government officials can provide a conclusive reason/explanation as to what triggered the sudden resurgence is considered by most as perplexing, while some have posited that it is merely an extreme solution proposed by a nation to control their ever-growing population, to more sinister theories, a concrete explanation cannot be fully ascertained. A majority of nations across the multiverse have agreed on one thing: the practice of slavery, or the treatment of humans as property is abhorrent, yet the nations that have openly tried to sell slaves on the international market have either ignored or outright denied these allegations, and there have been several other nations that defend slaver nations with full military force and has made themselves very clear that they will not hesitate to take action if one slaver nation is attacked, such examples would include The Wadiyan Emirates, the Airden Cartel, Western sol, and so on.
So far, organizations such as ULIBOR, founded by The SFR of Aquaria, and many others have taken action against this resurgence, such notable actions would include the Invasion and Partition of Toonga, and the various crackdowns on slave markets made by them over the last few months, and it is no surprise that such actions were commended by nations across the multiverse. But as of now, it seems that the pro-slavery movement, as it would come to be known as, have retaliated, as many pro-slavery nations have begin "guarding" slaver nations against attacks from anti-slavery nations.
For slaver nations and pro-slavery nations, the definition and overall practice of slavery is one that involves violations against basic human rights, violence, discrimination and mistreatment against people of various ethnicities, the deliberate torture of slaves by the person/organization keeping the slaves, and inciting high levels of suffering and misery towards the people deemed as slaves, and it is no surprise that this practice has been shunned upon by the nations of the multiverse. And with the increasing aggression shown by slaver nations, one such example would be Fenwick Foundation, in which it outright kills an Arpasian man after Arpasia tried to stop it from selling slaves, is considered to be of much concern, and that the situation might take a turn for the worse, as many people suspect that a coming war between pro-slavery and anti-slavery nations might take place somewhere in the future.
At this day, the Arpasian Government, on behalf of all of it's ministries and advisories, publicly condemns the very practice of slavery, in hopes that other nations would agree with this statement, in a televised speech, the president Natanaël Bonhomme would go on to describe all aspects of slavery as "abhorrent, filthy, disgusting, unethical and in all ways, wrong". In light of this initial public statement, a meeting behind closed doors between the president, vice president and all ministers and representatives from all advisories which lasted for 2 days according to government records had took place between the dates of April 20, 2022 until April 21, 2022.
The result of this meeting was announced at the late hours of April 21, 2022, the results being that Arpasia has decided to act by establishing a new organization against the practice of slavery, named The Advocates For Abolition And Against Slavery (AFAASA). This organization's sole purpose is to abolish slavery in nations across the multiverse through diplomacy or through by force if necessary, liberate all slaves from said nation and grant them asylum in member states, and to take action against pro-slavery organizations, and it is in this televised speech made by president Bonhomme, that he invites nations in the international community to join the AFAASA.
