Announcement of Royal Engagement
His Lordship Emerson Ravenswood, Count of Saika and her Imperial Highness Evanthe Anselmo-Rhodes, Princess of Arovium and Rokkenjima and Lord Protector of Somerset are delighted to announce their recent engagement. The Count proposed to his wife to be during the celebrations of Somerset's Establishment Day a moment that surprised the Princess. The couple have received the congratulations of the Emperor of Achkaerin, Peter Azurewind and Vicegerent Euphemia, as well as that of Governor McKenna of Somerset. Details of the wedding are yet to be released though it is expected to happen in the near future and all are warmly invited to share in the celebrations.

Emergency Advisory to Shipping
Following the
strikes by the Iwi
and the subsequent
developments in Royal Seleucid
the Achkaerinese government is issuing an emergency advisory to Achkaerinese shipping to avoid the marked area on the above map so as to maximize the chances of not becoming caught up in a situation that has the potential to become quite volatile. This does not amount to a statement of the Achkaerinese Government's position, that is something still under debate in cabinet, though a statement regarding that is imminent.
The Achkaerinese Navy will be positioning the
INS Ninetales
,
INS Riviere
and the
INS Saix
in the area positioning them to the south of the marked area to act as shepherds and sentries for Achkaerinese shipping, this will enable more comprehensive updating of this advisory depending on how circumstances on this issue change.

Concerning the Actions of Patricus Bateson
Following a close examination of the Mundus Convention of Universal Rights, consultation with legal experts and investigative measures in regards to the interaction of Patricus Bateson with the Karapetyan family from Tamora the following is charged against Mr Bateson by the Achkaerinese Government:
1) Violation of the Mundus Convention of Universal Rights by breach of article 5.1 "No one shall be held in slavery or servitude."
The Achkaerinese Government hopes Mr Bateson will turn himself over to Rokkenjiman authorities, failing that Achkaerin demands that Rokkenjima take steps to apprehend Mr Bateson and notes that Rokkenjiman inaction on this could constitute condoning the actions of Mr Bateson something that the Achkaerinese Government is sure Rokkenjima wishes to avoid.

On the Actions of SICR Police
The Achkaerinese Crown and Government unreservedly condemn the
actions of SICR Police
in executing without due process Dr Yu. This is an action that challenges the very fundamental principles of justice and in the opinion of the Achkaerinese leadership appears to make the SICR police nothing more than badged vigilantes, and not very well trained ones if the report of the incident is accurate. As a signatory state to the Mundus Convention of Universal Rights Achkaerin stands by the provisions of Article seven which enshrines the right to a fair trial, it is also noted that if the report of the incident is accurate none of the provisions under article 2.2 of the MCUR apply in this case.
The Achkaerinese Government also wishes to draw the attention of Quintelia and New Derusmia to this incident and reminds those nations as well as the SICR that one of the conditions of membership in the Southern Ardian New Electorate is as per section 4 article 4 "All member nations shall have signed the Uppsala Convention and the MCUR." SICR are not an MCUR signatory
[1]
and this action is clearly against the MCUR, we strongly urge other nations to join us in this condemnation and for SANE to make clear to its member that this sort of behaviour is not acceptable in this day and age.
As a result of this action the Achkaerinese government will be advising all citizens against travel to the SICR until further notice.
Hannah Cartwright, Royal Press Secretary

OOC - for the purposes of information so it can be rectified neither ND or SICR are MCUR signatories, ND is also not an Uppsala signatory

Announcing the Treaty of Friendship Between the Holy Empire of Achkaerin and the Kingdom of Seaforth
The Holy Empire of Achkaerin and the Kingdom of Seaforth share strong ties going back to the days when both nations were members of the CIS, in that time through the CIS Treaty the two nations shared a variety of mutual benefits with the collapse of the CIS and the fall no such treaty between these two partners has existed until today through the treaty of Friendship between the two nations:
Spoiler: Treaty Text
show
[center]
Treaty of Friendship Between the Holy Empire of Achkaerin and the Kingdom of Seaforth
[/center]
Section I - Diplomacy
(1) The parties agree to maintain active embassies with each other. If summoned an ambassador shall present themselves to the host government within twenty four hours of the summons.
(2) The parties agree to visa free travel so far as the following conditions are met
a) The traveller has a pre-booked return ticket
b) The traveller does not stay more than 60 days
c) The traveller has no prior criminal convictions
d) The traveller is not deemed a threat to national security
(3) The parties agree to extradite criminal suspects if they are presented with reasonable evidence and are assured that torture (as per article 4 of the MCUR) will not be used to extract evidence and that the accused will get a fair trial (article 7 MCUR). The parties shall not be obliged to extradite to the death penalty.
(4) The Parties agree to settle any dispute arising between themselves through diplomatic channels and failing that through third party arbitration.
Section II - Trade
(5) The parties pledge to trade fairly with each other and to respect the lawful commerce of each party. To that end, each party agrees to the removal of tariffs, to be phased out over the period of one year.
Section III - Security
(6) An armed attack on one party shall be considered an attack on both parties. Neither party shall be under an obligation to aid the other should the other party be the aggressor in the conflict.
(7) The parties agree to share military intelligence that is believed to be in the interest of the safety and security of the other, so long as doing so does not compromise the safety or security of themselves.
(
The parties agree to an annual exchange of thirty military officers (rotating between Army, Navy and Air Force) each exchange shall last for a three month period.
(9) The Parties agree to coordinate patrols of the Great Northern Ocean to ensure the security of those waters.
Section IV - Science and Culture
(10) The Achkaerin Space Agency shall train aspiring Seaforthian Astronauts, 50% of the training costs to be borne by the relevant Seaforthian authority.
(11) Seaforth shall in oceanic explorations work with the Centre of Oceanic Research And Learning (CORAL), 50% of the costs of the projects involving CORAL personnel to be borne by the relevant Achkaerinese authority.
(12) The Parties shall work to establish a twinning program between schools of their respective nations and encourage interaction between twinned schools.
The treaty reinstates many of the benefits the two nations enjoyed when members of the CIS and also builds in new ones displaying the jointly held desire of both nations to not only look backwards to what they shared previously but to the future and what they can share together there. The science provisions especially show a commitment to work collaboratively rather than tread on each others toes. The Emperor has always viewed the Kingdom of Seaforth as one of Achkaerin's most significant friends and he believes that this treaty lays the foundations of a bright future for that friendship.
Hannah Cartwright, Royal Press Secretary

Statement On the Situation in the Kyne
The Achkaerinese Government notes the opinions expressed by the Governments of Tamora and Abuqiya in regards to the decision to deploy Achkaerinese Air Force assets to the region. Let's be clear that what has happened is that Royal Seleucid seized a gas tanker belonging to the Iwi, now whether you regard such an act as right or wrong or piracy or not, the fact that such an act occurred presents a clear and obvious risk factor to the many shipping vessels of many different nations that traverse the Kyne each day, because we do not accept that the threat to shipping extends only to Iwi and Paracambi vessels therefore in our judgement it is appropriate to take steps to ensure the safety of Achkaerinese shipping vessels in the area. We also remind Tamora that Achkaerin has never enforced a treaty against a nation that lay outside the jurisdiction of that treaty and we are certainly not about to start today, we do not seek to enforce the Fair Seas Concordat against a non signatory nation but we do remind Tamora that this is a situation that has already attracted the attention of signatory states and that the victim of the seizure, the Commonwealth of the Unified Iwi, is also a signatory state and this is a point that carries with it potentially huge ramifications. Our intention is to ensure that those nations that are bound to the Concordat follow its provisions and we are well aware that this does not include certain Midaranye states.
As Tamora will be aware ever since the Slava Lavosk nuclear test happened a small Achkaerinese naval group has been stationed in the Gulf of Auraxis, our step in response to the current situation has been to task this naval group with the responsibility for monitoring Achkaerinese shipping in the area, due to the distances involved this required the deployment of certain Air Force assets. This is in our judgement a more appropriate step than deploying a second naval task force to the area.

Statement on Clysperis Developments
The Achkaerinese Crown and Government have noted the concerns expressed by our friends in Safraen and Vanora in relation to the number of military vessels present in the Gulf of Safraen area and we understand their concerns. We accept that this is a larger military presence of this type than would normally be seen in similar circumstances, the decision on what to deploy to the area was made following a detailed conversation with the Kingdom of Clysperis Government and we in the interests of clarity will say that the Achkaerinese naval deployment in the area is confined to the Clysperi EEZ with the agreement of that government, the Achkaerinese presence in international waters is three vessels. We do appreciate that there is a possibility of shipping hinderance in the Gulf. We reassure our friends that once the so called Confederation is defeated we will withdraw in a sensible manner Achkaerinese forces from Clysperis and that will of course include a withdrawal of the increased naval presence, in the meantime we will through diplomatic channels work with our friends in Safraen and Vanora to minimize the disruption as much as we can.
In relation to the so called Confederation the Achkaerinese Government makes clear that there is no such nation as the Confederation of Clysperis. There is no law, no proclamation, no decree from the legitimate government of Clysperis that brings into being a state of this name and only the legitimate government of a state can sell its land to another and only the legitimate government of a state can cede sovereignty over it to another. There are many who seem to be treating this conflict as if it is a fight between two countries when in truth it is an insurgency within a single state, anyone who is calling for negotiations needs to understand that they are in effect asking for Pharaoh Akasha to sit down with terrorists and that is not something you do.

Statement on Royal Bereavement
It is not normal that I personally issue statements out of the Royal Press Office, this is normally the domain of Royal Press Secretary Hannah Cartwright. However the events that this statement covers are of a nature that requires in my opinion a personal touch.
This afternoon as is tradition members of the Royal family were out in festive cheer attending various events across the country to celebrate Life Day which falls tomorrow on the 25th of December. One such event was a visit to the Royal Valtheim Children's Hospital carried out by daughter Serenity, her husband Isaac and their daughters Astrid and Lisa. It is my unfortunate duty with this statement to inform everyone that at the conclusion of this visit that family came under attack and my son in law Isaac was killed in what I can only be described as a terrorist attack.
I respectfully ask that the family be given time and space to grieve at this time.
Emperor Peter Azurewind

Statement on East Moreland "Operation Pixie Dust"
Following the execution of what the East Moreland military has termed Operation Pixie Dust, an action that saw East Moreland military personnel engage the Borland Separatists and secure the platform known as SeaTowers, a location that was in August 2014 taken over by the Borland Separatists. Following this operation's completion allegations of war crimes carried out by East Moreland forces in the course of this operation were made by the Borland Separatists, this has since been supported by a
Izhitsa Governmental Press Statement
.
As East Moreland is an Uppsalla Convention Signatory, the procedure for this set of circumstances is in motion - an investigation is underway, once evidence has been gathered and reviewed the findings will be presented to the Convention Advisory Committee of the Uppsalla Convention and it is for that committee to say whether prosecution is to be pursued and who that may be against. Most importantly at this point in time no one has been found guilty in a court of law of any war crime in relation to Operation Pixie Dust so I would urge national governments to be mindful of their language in this matter for the moment. An accusation has been made it will be thoroughly investigated and I would suggest people wait for the procedures to be gone through before making statements on this - the presumption of innocence applies not just to individual and corporate entities but to nations as well, so I would ask that the international community have a little patience while this is looked into.

Statement in Response to Minister Safavid
Following a statement made by Tamoran Head of Foreign Affairs Alya Safavid the Achkaerinese Government makes the following response:
The substance of the statement made by Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Chloe Murray is founded in scientific fact. The Deputy Minister was asked a legitimate question in a Foreign Affairs questions session in the Senate, we appreciate that the Tamoran Government may not be aware of the precise ins and outs of this procedure but the sessions do require that all questions be answered unless one of the exceptions are met, none of which were. Having been asked the question Minister Murray responded by quoting directly words used by His Majesty Sultan Yahya IV and then explained quite logically how basing access to water on a contribution to society basis carried with it the implication that those who do not contribute to society do not get water, she then further highlighted that if an average person were, under such a system, refused water for three days that they would die, the point there being that it would be a death as a result of a state policy. We would also remind Minister Safavid that Minister Murray did make a point of explaining that it was not known what did and did not amount to a contribution to society in addition it's also not clear what happens in respect of the ill, the elderly, the disabled etc.
The primary objection from Minister Safavid seems to concern the use of the word "Immoral" by Minister Murray, in making this point Minister Safavid states "nothing said by His Majesty Sultan Yahya IV can be described as immoral according to the book of the Prophet Mani which stands as the foundation of the Tamoran society." this is accepted however what Minister Safavid should consider is that in much the same way as it may be moral by the holy book of Manism it can equally be described as immoral according to the teachings of the Namis faith which form the foundation of Achkaerinese society and with that in mind I'm sure that Minister Safavid can understand why Minister Murray chose to use that word. In terms of the effect on the war effort, there is no evidence as yet that there is a lack of trust or erosion of support and if Minister Safavid wishes to make the suggestion that criticism by one party of another involved in the same effort is detrimental to the cause and should be avoided then the same could be said of what this government views as the blatant disrespect shown to Doctor Byrne and Amber Duff by Pharaoh Akasha, the Pharaoh just like everyone else is entitled to decline participation but she should surely first wait and see what is actually proposed in detail before rushing to judgement.
The primary concern the Achkaerinese government has with the policy of Wadden in respect of access to water is rooted in scientific fact and the implied potential ramifications of it. In our judgement a state that denies its own citizens something they need in order to survive with the potential for this to result in fatalities is in the event of such fatalities engaging in a criminal act. We appreciate that others may disagree and that is something that they are well within their rights to do. However equally Minister Safavid should accept as we're sure she does that Minister Murray is entitled to answer a legitimate question in a manner that follows her own conscience and sense of morality just as we would accept that if Minister Safavid were to be asked the same question that she would respond in a manner compliant with her own conscience and sense of morality.

Statement On Ubbriekland Developments
The Achkaerinese Government notes the
outlawing of the majority of religions within the nation of Ubbriekland
, while it is accepted that a state can act in this manner if they so choose it does throw up questions in relation to how this ban will implemented, how it will be enforced and what the scope of the ban is. We will be updating the travel advice for Ubbriekland to reflect the current situation in the country.
Remaining on the religion point the Achkaerinese Government also notes an omission on the part of the Ubbriekland government in that only three of the four Abrahamic faiths are mentioned, this leaves followers of the fourth faith, Manism, in limbo as there is no apparent knowledge of whether they are included in this or not, the Achkaerinese Government seconds
the request of the Tamoran Government
that this be addressed.

Statement on Yani Twafeek and Other Seleucid Prisoners
For a few years now investigators from the Iwi have been engaged in the pursuit of persons believed to have committed war crimes against the Iwi population during the Seleucid occupation of the Iwi. Yani Twafeek is one such person, he was detained in Kaitaine and extradited to the Iwi to stand trial all of which is within accepted norms, before that trial could occur he was freed by other persons who are Seleucid in terms of nationality, this group of people have since been able to take refuge in Rokkenjima who have, again reasonably, refused to extradite Mr Tawfeek and the others back to the Iwi. However this does not resolve the issue.
The suggestion of the Iwi is that the Uppsalla Convention Court could hear the case against Mr Twafeek, and this is the request Rokkenjima has made. As the crime of which Mr Twafeek is accused falls within the scope of the Convention and the expertise of the staff we are happy to have Mr Twafeek extradited in this manner. However in regards to those with Mr Twafeek it is a different matter, these are persons who are not wanted for any offence within the scope of the Convention as such it would be inappropriate for the Convention Court to deal with them. If the Iwi can provide evidence demonstrating otherwise then of course it will be examined however failing that we suggest Rokkenjima explores other avenues.

Statement on Mr Nekhtou
Following a successful joint Achkaerinese and CDL operation, the man known as Nekthou or "the disgraced" has been captured and is presently in Achkaerinese custody. We note the desire of the Pharaoh of Clysperis to see this man face justice for his crimes and she is welcome to visit Valtheim at her earliest convenience to discuss this matter.

Statement on QAMB and Resulting Environmental Issue
While the Achkaerinese Government understands and respects the right of Rokkenjima to withdraw from a bi-lateral treaty we do note that the sequence immediately following that announced withdrawal does leave a lot to be desired, an adequate period of time for the safe demolition of the facility and removal of all Rokkenjiman equipment could have been agreed to and wasn't.
In terms of the resulting environmental issue, this clearly poses a threat to the health of the Heyran people, the maritime environment and the environment in a more general sense. The Achkaerinese government will send aid in the form of medical supplies, food and water to the area affected with a small number of emergency medical personnel, we will deploy the hospital ship INS Apothecary to the area however it will take around ten days to arrive in the area and will also mobilize the INS Rio Grande our Global Pre-Positioning Vessel assigned to that area of Mundus and send it to the affected area.
In addition the drone carrier INS Rhyth Icerider, presently docked in Vaguzia, will be sent into the area to monitor the spread of the leak into the sea while the crew of the INS Groundon in coordination with experts from CORAL will take measures to attempt to contain the leak and prevent the spread further into the sea.

Statement on Izhitsa
The Achkaerinese Government notes the plight of the Izhitsa and will make available food, water and other supplies as required to assist them through this. No one in this world should be without food or water, the aid will be sent on an unconditional basis.
We would on a separate point request that the relevant authorities clarify the circumstances of what appear to be POW's being used as farm hands, the implications of the news article suggest this is far from voluntary, clarifications on this matter would be appreciated.

Actions in Relation to Yellowtongue
The Achkaerinese Government recognizes the current situation surrounding the Yellowtongue virus and it's rampant spread to several nations, in response to the current situation the Achkaerinese Government is implementing the following steps:
1) The importing of livestock is banned as of midnight on the 24th June 2020, this ban will be reviewed and potentially extended if necessary on 1st August 2020.
2) All domestic animals that fall within the identified at risk categories (Sheep, Cattle, Yaks, Goats, Buffalo, Deer and its sub-species, Dromedaries, and Antelopes and its subspecies) will be subject to testing by Vets. Any animals that test positive are to be isolated and quarantined for a period of 30 days. Should an infected animal die the carcass will be burned.
3) Development of a vaccine and treatment programs will be undertaken and the Achkaerinese Government would welcome the assistance of Huaxia authorities in providing samples for that purpose, we would also welcome collaboration from other nations in this effort.
4) In relation to Gowu the approach that has been agreed upon, following consultation with the Gowu authorities, sees mirroring of the content of points 1 & 2 in this press release. In addition because of the wild animal herd factor seen in the Ardian Peninsula area there will also be an adapted testing methodology put in place. We appreciate that the Ardian Peninsula is not the only space on Mundus like this and if other nations would like further information on specific steps in relation to this point then we advise they contact the Gowu Authorities.

Humanitarian Aid to Merina
The Achkaerinese Government, following consultation and communication with their Merina counterparts, have reached an agreement to send humanitarian aid in the form of supplies and personnel to the nation. The primary concerns for the aid effort will be ensuring the wellbeing of civilians and assisting in the safe extraction of those fleeing the conflict to a safe area removed from the conflict zone. Part of this effort will involve the deployment of the
INS Iona Azurewind
a hospital ship. We appreciate that the Council of Albion is presently undertaking measures to ensure that certain items do not reach the conflict zone from outside actors, we would like to assure the Council of Albion that we are not acting contrary to this and we hope that will not obstruct that passage, however if deemed necessary we will cooperate with it.

Response to Hassfurt
In response to
The Diarchy of Hassfurt
the Achkaerinese Leadership would like to make the following points:
1) Advance notice of intention to act was sent by private communication to MICA an organisation which includes a majority of Illumic nations including East Moreland, Seaforth, Heyra and Zimalia. This notification explained that Achkaerin intended to act in relation to the human trafficking issue presently unfolding as it has had an effect on Achkaerinese citizens who live on sovereign Achkaerinese soil in the Illumic and precisely what actions were to be taken by Achkaerinese forces in that event. Approval for the deployment of military force must first pass through the Achkaerinese Senate this has not yet happened as such it remains an intention to act in the communicated manner.
2) It is disappointing that the Diarchy has seen fit to publish privately communicated information in the public sphere as such the Government of Achkaerin shall review what information is communicated with the Diarchy in the future.

Statement on Recent Statements from Illumic Nations
In response to recent statements made by several Illumic Nations the Achkaerinese Government states the following:
In response to the
Diarchy of Hassfurt
:
The apology is accepted however the Diarchy should bear in mind that in releasing the information to the public at large of the Achkaerinese Governments proposal that they forced the Senate to debate the matter sooner than they otherwise would have done which in practical terms killed off the opportunity for co-operation and discussion. It is also worth noting that Achkaerin now has a stake in the Illumic and matters of security in the Illumic are also matters of Achkaerinese security just as much as they are matters of Hassfurtian security, Seaforthian security, Morelander security, Heyran security and so on.
In response to the
Heyran Republic
The Achkaerinese Government appreciates the Heyran Government's support of Achkaerin's status as an Illumic nation. However we would remind the Heyran Republic that as a member of the Council of Illumic Nations Zimalia has agreed to abide by the terms of the Fair Seas Concordat. In addition if the argument of "You cannot board a vessel if they fly the flag of a non signatory under any circumstances" is to be advanced then the Heyran Government should perhaps provide the evidence upon which it relies in making that claim. We also repeat that notification of intention to act was communicated with the opportunity for nations to whom it was communicated to raise questions and discuss the approach, this didn't have the opportunity to happen because of the Diarchy of Hassfurt's decision to publicly announce what the Achkaerinese Government was intending to do as a course of action.
We remind the international community that the Achkaerinese interpretation of article 110 of the Fair Seas Concordat is not disputed a state has the right to stop a foreign vessel on the high seas if there is reasonable suspicion that the foreign vessel is engaged in one of several things, in this instance we believe that human trafficking equates to the slave trade this is undisputed. What is disputed is what amounts to reasonable suspicion, we respect that three nations have made clear that they don't agree with the Achkaerinese government's view on this and that one does agree. Therefore the Achkaerinese Government will not at this time implement the proposal at this time, pending further investigation of the situation at hand, however we will not hesitate to exercise our rights under the Fair Seas Concordat at a later date if such suspicion is enhanced.

Statement on Continuing Situation in Kopsje
The Achkaerinese Government has continued to note the evolving situation in Kopsje. Throughout the course of this situation Achkaerinese citizens in Kopsje and Namists as a whole have been advised, whether by the Foreign Office or the Cult Leadership to comply with the law of the land, this advice will continue. At this time the Achkaerinese Government will not enact a blanket travel restriction to Kopsje however we do suggest that those people intending to travel there consider the importance of their trip and whether making it is of critical importance to them.
In relation to the statement of the Authority & Administration Council of Dzunho, it is hoped that evidence of criminal activity will be provided to the Achkaerinese embassy in regards to any Achkaerinese citizen or cleric of the Namist faith whose arrest is sought so that the appropriate legal action can be undertaken by the Achkaerinese Foreign Office. We do not presently have any information of any Namist cleric being involved in any violent protests, it would be most troubling if they were involved as it would be incompatible with their priesthood vows.

Statement on the Awhaele Transition
As
previously stated by the Achkaerinese Government
work was being undertaken to, following the free democratic choice of the people living on the island of Awhaele, transition the island from its previous governing settlement under the joint concordat to part of Achkaerinese sovereign territory. The transition is now finalised with the following being enacted:
1) Effective as of Midnight Valtheim Meridian Time on the 22nd of January 2021 the island of Awhaele will formally finish the period of transition to an Achkaerinese province, it shall keep its name and for jurisdictional purposes all laws and treaties pertaining to Achkaerinese territory shall be applicable to the island.
2) Her Majesty Queen Siora Qivalur of the Faejeon people shall be bestowed with the noble title of Marquesa of Cyalona and Awhaele, thus granting her status equal to that of other Achkaerinese nobles such as Lady Kristina Ayanami and Lord Antonio Gliss. She will be granted a seat in the Noble Moot.
3) The island of Awhaele shall for National electoral purposes be divided into thirty constituencies each electing a Senator to the Achkaerinese Senate this will increase the total number of Achkaerinese Senators (including the Speaker) to 530. Under the provisions of the
Elections and Referendum Act
elections to fill these new thirty seats will be held on the 4th of March 2021 and shall be subsequently contested in the 2025 General Election. The Provincial governing of Awhaele shall operate as a devolved Government operating on the same terms as Gowu.

Statement in Response to Fleur
The Achkaerinese government utterly refutes the baseless accusations leveled by Fleur. The deployment of naval vessels as announced by the Ministry of Defence does not violate the agreement with Izhitsa, we respect our international agreements and we agreed not to deploy weapons onto Izhitsan territory as these ships will not be entering Izhitsan waters nor will the aircraft fly within Izhitsan airspace as such they are not in Izhitsan territory and the agreement is not violated, therefore the action is not illegal. If it becomes necessary to withdraw or alter the humanitarian deployment to Izhitsa because of the situation in Parbhani then we shall communicate with the Izhitsan authorities on that matter.

Statement in Response to Events in Kopsje et al
The Achkaerinese Government notes the tragic turn of events in Kopsje, the massacre at the village of Kuniatiat is completely unacceptable and is without question or reservation condemned by this Government. Those responsible for it must be brought to justice and we take note of the announced investigations associated with doing so. Regional Achkaerinese diplomatic offices in the border area will see their security tightened as a result of this incident and we hope there will be no repeat of it.
Concerning the reports of a rogue Clysperi submarine having mutinied and declaring support for the defeated so called Confederation of Clysperis, the Achkaerinese ships originally deployed in respect of circumstances concerning Parbhani have been diverted to deal with this more pressing danger.

Notice to Shipping in Waters off the Gowu Coast
Those operating vessels that will be traversing Gowu waters in the period between the 28th of February 2021 and the 5th of March 2021 are advised that they will need to stick to the northern shipping lanes and approach's to those lanes this being due to the Achkaerinese Navy conducting a series of exercises in the area, weapons fire will be a part of the exercises and we advise civilian traffic to stay away from the vicinity of the exercises. Gowu harbour control will have extra operators on staff throughout the exercises to minimize disruption to shipping during the time period.

Message In Response to the Death of King Comegin of Cantabria
On behalf of the Holy Empire of Achkaerin I offer our condolences to the Royal family and people of the Kingdom of Cantabria following the passing of King Comegin. It is a truly saddening day, my nation and Cantabria have had little interactions over the years but even with such limited interactions I can say that the late King was a well respected and talented individual who will be missed by a great many people both at home and abroad.
Signed
Emperor Peter Azurewind

Statement on Lodjan Situation
The Holy Empire has watched with great sadness the events that have occurred in the Queendom of Lodja, we have seen an attempt on the life of Queen Klara and now we have seen a cowardly attack against the East Moreland embassy. The thoughts and prayers of Achkaerin go out to Queen Klara, the families of those who have lost loved ones or have had members of their families injured and the Queendom as a whole. The Holy Empire condemns the violence and abductions perpetrated by Leopold Hamsik and will not recognize this so called "Monarchy of Lodja" as anything other than a terrorist enterprise brought together because of one mans desire for power and revenge made worse because he seeks to disguise his ill intent under the cloud of "reform", we will not stand for that and we are confident that Mundus will not stand for it, there is no evidence contained in the declaration made that gives rise to any meaningful reform that deviates from the path already pursued by Queen Klara, there is no suggestion of changes in the Governance of Lodja in principle but in semantics, there is also no evidence that the people of Lodja support this attempted power grab by Mr Hamsik. We are advising any Achkaerinese citizens presently in or intending on travelling Lodja to consider carefully whether their stay or journey is necessary. Security at the Achkaerinese embassy will be heightened.
The false imprisonment of six members of the Conclave, not to mention the attack on the East Moreland embassy, is sufficient criteria to designate the
HDMS Morelander
as a pirate vessel, if an Achkaerinese naval vessel or aircraft encounters the
HDMS Morelander
appropriate action will be taken. Leopold Hamsik, who is clearly party to these events, has committed actions contrary to the Uppsala Convention and must face justice for his actions, actions which are not those of a Monarch but a terrorist hellbent on revenge for circumstances he has no one other than himself to blame for him being in.
If the Queendom of Lodja or any of our allies require any further assistance in this matter they need only ask.
