Armenian artillery near the Serbian border
Tis all too convenient...
His Imperial Majesty - after requesting for the "Balkan Affair" to be resolved diplomatically time and time again - has henceforth authorized the issuing of an ultimatum both the Olpenese government and those providing aid and/or holding active membership in the Tirana Pact; citing 'threats to Armenian territorial integrity'...and noting the recent arrival of the Olpenese Chamber Minister as, undoubtedly, proof of provocation. As such - in the interests of national security - the aforementioned ultimatum was both brutally honest, yet - in a way - unprofessional. It - of course - demanded the complete withdrawal from Olpenese forces from the Balkans, and with them their materiel and/or logistical support - and has called for the complete dissolution of the Tirana Pact - claiming that it, and its members, pose a threat to peace and stability in an otherwise pacified land. Besides - authorities in the Balkans have claimed that ethnic tensions have, for the most part, died down in the viceroyalty...mostly due to Armenia's promotion of a 'common cause' and a 'greater good'. Were either of the two to reject to abide by the ultimatum's terms - His Imperial Majesty has, in front of thousands, made it clear that the Armenian military can and will, by any means necessary, fulfill said terms themselves. Even with said warnings - the Armenian government doubts that neither the Olpenese, nor their allies, will take the terms seriously.
