[The Gilded Ray]

Congrats to Writinglegend and Sincluda! Good luck on your term :>

[Reventus Koth]

These individuals have undermined the laws of The Land of Kings and Emperors, our historic ally, and used their offices there for personal gain, supported by the Brotherhood of Malice.

Day 18 of waiting for literally any evidence to back up this claim. Perhaps the new President (congratulations!) could give it a shot?

[Ministry of Pod]

Congratulations to the incoming administration - the Ministry of Pod had seven Election Special podcast episodes regarding the April 2022 Europeian Presidential Election which are available on Spotify.

[Grea Kriopia]

Congrats WL and Sin!

[RiderSyl]

[Emodea]

[Minskiev]

[Malphe II]

After an instance of free speech suppression in TCB that violated an article of our treaty, Europeia along with the three other regions mentioned above sent a single representative, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Thaecia, to speak with TCB's First Minister and Foreign Minister.

Just checked this out, is there any clarification on what constituted free speech suppression in TCB in this statement? I can't find anything that would imply protected free speech of party regions by the relevant treaty, am sorta confused. Thanks!

EDIT: fixed space v-v

[Honeydewistania]

If I’m not wrong, the Treaty or Spomenik was a different treaty signed in 2021, and the one you just linked was a a non-aggression agreement or something

[Malphe II]

Ah thanks! Yeah that's cleared that up, found the referenced clause.

It was a wonderful process getting this done, from collaboration prior to the negotiations themselves! Great to see it coming to fruition here.

President Writinglegend Re-elected, Becomes first re-elected president since executive re-merge
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact Information (Discord): $eva#4106

(Europeia, June 26, 2022) - In what many viewed as an impending coronation due to his high approval ratings, incumbent President Writinglegend won re-election over former Vice President and multi-time cabinet member Monkey, who led the Government Accountability Office for part of last term. Writinglegend is the first president since the re-merge of the executive branch to be re-elected, and this will be his record-breaking ninth term as President.

The campaign was relatively quiet, and did not even feature a presidential debate between the candidates. Polling showed a massive lead for the Writinglegend/Sarah ticket, with Monkey/Calvin Coolidge ticket only taking up 13% of the vote in the last poll before the election opened.

Writinglegend took an early lead when polls opened, and his re-election was never in danger - his ticket emerged victorious with 80.6% of the vote. The absolute number of votes, 57, broke the record for most votes for a candidate for a contested election in recorded history - records of election results are only available from July 2015 onwards.

The re-election of Writinglegend brings a new Vice President in Sarah, replacing Sincluda who chose not to run for re-election for real life reasons. Sarah was Culture Minister under Writinglegend in the previous term and has been Statsminister of Balder and Delegate of The Rejected Realms in the past.

Since the polls closed, the President has published his inaugural address where he stated that he “wanted this term more than any of [his] previous terms.” As opposed to the last term that was “about challenges and roadblocks”, Writinglegend has declared this term will be “about opportunities.” He promised to “flip our domestic ministries inside-out to support our ambitious foreign affairs agenda” and to “seek out newfound opportunities”, echoing his promises in his campaign platform. “It is the people of our community,” he concluded in a call for all Europeians to get involved in the region, “who harness our greatness.”

The President has also appeared on radio to make his cabinet nominations, which were largely well received. Right now the nominees are undergoing Senate confirmation. The proposed cabinet is as follows:

Minister of Interior - Poseidon63

Minister of Culture - Istillian

Minister of Communications - Seva

Minister of Radio - Lime

Minister of Foreign Affairs - Sopo

Minister of World Assembly Affairs - Pland Adanna

Grand Admiral - Icarus

Attorney General - United Adaikes.

Although the Senate has voiced mostly support for the nominees, the confirmation process has not been completely smooth. For instance, the nominee for minister of radio, Lime, has faced questions about a term as President where he earned a 5% approval rating and resigned. The consensus, however, seems to be that he is qualified to lead his ministry given his knowledge of and contributions to Europeian media.

Another potentially controversial choice for minister was the Interior nominee Poseidon63, who recently resigned from the Senate after facing a recall petition for posting in spam threads during his leave of absence. However, he is the incumbent minister, and Writinglegend defended the nominee's record last term by publicizing high recruitment telegram numbers under Poseidon's leadership.

Istillian, the nominee for minister of culture, was on a break from cabinet positions during the previous term and therefore faced some questions about his readiness to go back to the cabinet in a position he has never served in before. He has outlined the ways he got involved last term and declared he is “bursting with excitement” about his new role.

Sopo, Icarus, Pland Adanna, Seva, and United Adaikes were all heavily involved in their departments last term, Sopo as the incumbent Minister of Foreign Affairs, Icarus, Pland Adanna, and Seva in deputy positions in the Europeian Republican Navy, Ministry of World Assembly Affairs, and Ministry of Communications respectively, and United Adaikes as Deputy Attorney General. Therefore, they were seen by the citizenry as the natural choices for their positions.

[Quebecshire]

Congratulations to Gleg on a successful re-election. Last term was wonderful, and I look forward to seeing what Europeia accomplishes in the next.

[Minskiev]

Congrats to Gleg and the incoming ministers/officials

[Lord Dominator]

and this will be his record-breaking ninth term as President.

That’s a lotta terms

[Ambrella]

Gleg will have led Europeia for ~11.5% of its 15 year existence at the conclusion of this term.

Statement on Operation Ragnarok
Earlier today, Quebecshire, Consul of The League, published an article in the NationStates Gameplay forum that details an internal plot by the Brotherhood of Malice to coup Europeia’s long-time ally Balder.

The plot, titled Operation Ragnarok, was sponsored and organized by the leadership of the Brotherhood of Malice. This includes three players previously labeled as personae non gratae: Reventus Koth, Venico, and Ever-Wandering Souls. It also includes Shadowmaster Raxion and Scott Talleyrand, the latter of which would have been the operative subverting Balder. I am hereby announcing both Raxion and Scott Talleyrand will henceforth be labeled as personae non gratae for their role in Operation Ragnarok.

Europeia emphatically condemns the actions of the Brotherhood of Malice and their continued provocations against our Independent allies. Operation Ragnarok not only constitutes an attempted attack on our historic ally of Balder, but an egregious violation of the principles of GCR sovereignty. The Republic of Europeia will use her voice to call Operation Ragnarok what it is: a sloppy, pitiful attempt at violating fundamental principles of GCR sovereignty that was orchestrated by those at the highest echelon of the Brotherhood of Malice.

Regions like Osiris who continue to work with and support the Brotherhood of Malice moving forward, after knowing of their organized and sponsored attempt to coup Balder, will be treated as part of the problem. We call on the gameplay community to stand against this behavior.

Writinglegend,

President of Europeia

Sopo,

Minister of Foreign Affairs of Europeia

[Reventus Koth]

Honestly, we got a lot more mileage out of doing absolutely nothing and abandoning the idea than most actual infiltration ops ever get. Can't wait for the fireworks when we actually do something.

Glad to see Europeia finally filling in the hole they accidentally left when they forgot to PNG Rax with the rest of us. Unsurprised to see them throwing Osiris at this for no reason.

[Ikania]

As acting Director of Foreign Affairs for The League, we are glad to see Europeia give a sensible and strong response, one which demonstrates the unity of the regions to defend our sovereignty from the Brotherhood of Malice. We unequivocally support Europeia in all actions on this issue, starting with these firm proscriptions and anything else the Republic sees fit. While Balder is not a direct ally of ours, we are fully committed to supporting both their sovereignty as a free region in their own right, and as an ally of Europeia.

It is my hope that this occasion will serve as a reminder of the threat that organizations like Malice and their associates present to the regions of the world.

[Klaus Devestatorie]

I warmly welcome Raxion and Scott Talleyrand to the Euro PNG club.

[Devious]

I warmly welcome Raxion and Scott Talleyrand to the Euro PNG club.

about time rax finally got some recognition
being the only shadowmaster snubbed in the first wave of pngs must have been humiliating

that said, no big surprise that euro is quick to give a piece of their minds, given the venn diagram between it and balder are practically a circle

[Ambrella]

To whom it may concern;

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Europeia would like to provide notice that we have recalled our ambassador and closed our forumside embassy with Osiris.

Europeia cannot maintain regular relations with regions that aid and abet those who seek to undermine the sovereignty of our allies. Due to Osiris's turning a blind eye toward Operation Ragnarok, a flagrant attempt to launch a coup against our ally Balder by their allies the Brotherhood of Malice, we no longer wish to be associated with the government of Osiris.

Sincerely,

Sopo,

Minister of Foreign Affairs of Europeia
