STATEMENT ON THE BASELESS INCREASE IN SOUND TAXES
The Government of the Kingdom of Reitzmag is unhappy to receive news about the unilateral and baseless raising of sound taxes for Reitzmic and Moriagaru vessels in the Straits of Gibraltar and Adventuranza. We would like to remind everyone that the Reitzmic Government is not interfering with any of the proceedings in the Council, nor with the decisions of our representatives to it. The Office of the European Councilor for Reitzmag remains independent of the Reitzmic Government and that their opinions, stands, and statements in the chamber are not manipulated. Only information that we deem helpful to the Council proceedings are what we provide to our representative.
So we are asking the Government of the Kingdom of Spain to cease hostilities and aggression against the Kingdom of Reitzmag and the Kingdom of Moriagaru. We support the sovereign right of Moriagaru to at least 5km of territorial waters that are within their jurisdiction, and we condemn any form of harassment to vessels conducting innocent passage through whichever state's territorial waters. We would like to emphasize that peace and harmony throughout Europe would not be achieved with aggression and hostility and that this must stop to the most peaceful way possible unless such aggression poses threats to the sovereignty and national security of our country. Therefore, we invite the Kingdom of Moriagaru and the Kingdom of Spain to settle whichever dispute in their territorial waters and respect each other's sovereign rights to naval territory to the most peaceful and diplomatic way possible. For this moment, our country will not act unless that the actions are harming us and our allies in some way.

STATEMENT ON THE REBELLION IN COPALA CITY
The Government of the Kingdom of Reitzmag is displeased to hear such violation of National Law by the people of Copala City in the form of rebellion as they declared unilateral independence from the state. It is recognizable from the statement made by the people behind this situation that they are armed to fight. Therefore, this forces us to act in proportional response. The said rebels are ordered to be arrested immediately, armed resistance may be met with violence. All military personnel deployed in Copala City must ensure that those who shall be transported to Anastasia City be safe, and they may use their weapons to defend themselves and the civilians. To tackle this, all Copalans who will move to Anastasia City outside of Bomballey shall be transferred to New Saint Regina for the meantime through a bus service to keep their safety. Non-rebels in Bomballey shall raise their arms and lower their weapons (if applicable) in surrender before approaching any military personnel to be kept safe. Bomballey shall also be locked from entry or exit from non-military personnel. Rebellion will never be tolerated in our state, and we are very disappointed of this response to our generosity to them by providing them their basic necessities.

STATEMENT ON THE DEPLOYMENT OF NAVAL SHIPS IN ADVENTURANZA
The Kingdom of Reitzmag confirms the deployment of Royal Navy Ships off the coast of the Federal Republic of Yosai. As an ally of said country, we are bound by treaty to defend and assist them in defending their maritime assets. In this situation wherein naval ships of two large European powers have been deployed in great readiness to assert their unacceptable imperialist claims, it is our duty to assist our friends in maintaining control over their sovereign territories. We will not be threatened and will be ready to fight, to the last man when necessary, in order to maintain peace and stability in the Mediterranean Region. The outlandish claims of the Kingdom of Spain and Empire of Inimicus are nothing short of piracy and terrorism. Our opposition does not come from the imposition of taxes on the said area, but on the matter of control and territorial rights in the Strait of Adventuranza.
Despite this, we assure that our ships are not present to escalate the situation but to assist in committing our responsibilities as set out by treaties prior to this time. We invite, the Empire of Inimicus to immediately halt any naval operations in the area in exchange for the immediate suspension of our operations. As may have been noticed, we have also acted too late to be considered hostile. We have judged that such operation was necessary only because of the recent actions from the Kingdom of Spain and Empire of Inimicus.
Finally, we call for all parties to cease any escalation in this misunderstanding. We hope that the Kingdom of Spain also cease their arrogant and unacceptable claims on territorial rights. It is only this way that we will be able to resolve this issue without the use of arms.

UPDATE ON THE DEPLOYMENT OF NAVAL SHIPS IN ADVENTURANZA
The Kingdom of Reitzmag reaffirms that its missions in Adventuranza are purely in assistance of the Federal Republic of Yosai. Our actions were prompted only in response to the presence of Inimician naval vessels in their territorial waters. And therefore, we reiterate our demand that the Empire of Inimicus withdraw all their deployments if they want us to withdraw our naval ships preparing for deployment.
In addition, the sizeable force of the Spanish Armed Forces are far superior to that of the Federal Republic of Yosai. Therefore, their operations in collaboration with the Empire of Inimicus, is clearly an attempt to exert unjust influence to our ally. As such, we will not withdraw our forces prepared for deployment unless the Empire of Inimicus or any party, other than the Kingdom of Spain and Federal Republic of Yosai, withdraws their naval deployments which we see as a threat to the sovereign right of the Federal Republic of Yosai to their coastal waters.
We respect the ongoing peaceful negotiations between the Federal Republic of Yosai and the Kingdom of Spain, and invites other nations to also respect these diplomatic efforts. This is unlike what the Governments of Inimicus and Spain have been misinforming the general public recently. Our intended deployment is strictly within the recognized territorial waters of the Federal Republic of Yosai (under the 50% rule) and for the purposes of freedom of navigation, unlike what the Empire of Inimicus and Kingdom of Spain which both are conducting operations extending to the shores of the Federal Republic of Yosai.

WITHDRAWAL OF DEPLOYMENTS IN ADVENTURANZA
The Kingdom of Reitzmag expresses its gratitude to the Empire of Inimicus for listening to our demands and requests. We reaffirm that our intentions for the recent deployment was for the assistance to the Federal Republic of Yosai in protecting their interests and sovereign rights. However, we are true to our words and promises. Therefore, the Prime Minister publicly orders the withdrawal of all ships of the Royal Navy tasked under Operation Blue Hydra and immediately return back to their respective ports of deployment. We hope and trust the Government of the Empire of Inimicus in their intentions and hope that they will also not use this as an opportunity to invade our allies and harass our citizens. May peace remain with us all.

STATEMENT ON THE EXTREMIST GROUPS IN ANASTASIA CITY
The Kingdom of Reitzmag expresses its concern over the situation in the United Duchies and has decided to take measures to prevent possible rise of extremism in the country. After further deliberation, the National Security Council had added 46 names of individuals related to the attacks in Copala City, now Caspian City, last year to the Terror List. The individuals' identities had been verified and investigated thoroughly by the National Intelligence Service prior to this decision. The investigations to be conducted with the Duchian Police may result in more names to be added to the Terror List.
As per protocol, individuals in the Terror List are immediately arrested and sentenced according to the charges proven against them in court. Terrorists who carry any deadly weapon are immediately shot to be immobilized and taken for hospital arrest before being sentenced in court. Individuals usually in the terror list are sentenced to lifetime imprisonment without bail.

For this moment, we will keep monitoring the movements and situation. In addition, the said Reszelport Jezebel-Swift will be declared Persona-non-grata and that any of her followers will not be allowed to enter the country to ensure Naional Security.

STATEMENT ON THE RECENT SITUATION IN THE VATICAN
The Kingdom of Reitzmag sends its worries over the violent take-over of a terrorist group led by an anti-pope to the general public. Our nation has long been ruled by Catholic rulers and it is unacceptable to us how the Vatican is destroyed this way. We are currently cooperating with the Spanish Armed Forces on operations and joint efforts at retaking and securing the city-state, as well as the conduct of humanitarian and logistical missions in the Vatican. This was done in order for the liberation to be attained as soon as possible considering the distance between Reitzmag's nearest bases in the area and the Vatican, which is longer than the distance of Spain. In addition, we are calling on the Istkalenian Government to cooperate by terminating any remnant of the terrorist organization still operating in Istkalen. Such situation would have not been possible if the Istkalenian Government had not let these terrorists flee their airspace, and therefore also call for an investigation to be conducted on how these terrorists were able to gather arms and equipment to conduct such invasion. We hope that the Istkalenian Government will cooperate on this matter to ensure that these situations will no longer happen again in the future.

JOINT STATEMENT OF THE EUROPEAN COALITION
We, the Governments of the Republic of Brickston, the Kingdom of Reitzmag, the United Duchies, and the Federal Republic of Yosai, who form the European Coalition of Nations, express our condemnation of the irrational response from the members of the Treaty of Telum.
Our conduct of a practice bombing was an exercise of our capability to support our allies, and that no country without any intention of invading or threatening the sovereignty of our allies or our nation shall feel threatened. We also debunk that there is "environmental terrorism" during such exercises, especially due to the fact that such was conducted in an area specially designated for training. It is also concerning how the members of the Treaty of Telum has informed us of the existence of a "Southern European Sphere of Influence", something that clearly shows the still ongoing colonialist and hegemonic mentality from the said group. Our nations are independent and sovereign, and that we reserve the right to conduct whatever internal affairs within our nations' boundaries. The parties involved had authorized the conduct of such missions and that there is no intention of conducting any offensive mission against any of the members of the Treaty of Telum. Finally, we also clarify that the location of such exercises were clearly stated to be on the Duchian mountains and is therefore very far from the boundaries of the Kingdom of Spain and Empire of Inimicus unlike what they claim in their statement.
We hope that this statement clarifies the situation and shows how our nations are treated only as "underdogs" by the members of the Treaty of Telum.

ON THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE JOINT SHIELD PROGRAM
We, the Governments of the Republic of Brickston, the Kingdom of Reitzmag, the United Duchies, and the Federal Republic of Yosai, who form the European Coalition of Nations, express its greetings to all.
Following a meeting between the members of the European Coalition, through the Defence Council, the Joint Shield Program has been established. This program aims to establish a unified Air Defence System among its members to protect its assets from possible incursion and attacks. In addition, various Surface to Air Missile Systems, Anti-Air Artillery Systems, and Anti-Ballistic Missile Systems, have been considered and certified to be fielded and participate in this program. Through this joint program, members are given a significant increase in national defence against any aerial threats, including nuclear weapons. Apart from the deployment of ground-based air defence assets, members are also establishing a joint datalink system to allow sharing of intelligence from any possible sources, including sea, land, and air-based equipment. This will enhance our nations' capability in cooperating to protect the interests of each other, and ensuring the safety and security of our people.
This program shall form part of our joint initiative for enhancing our defence capabilities along with the Joint Procurement Program. We hope that our programs pose no threat to other nations unless otherwise such has intentions of aggression against any of our members. The intentions of these programs are for the defence of our nations and are not intent on aggression against any nation. To this end, we urge more nations to join the European Coalition to participate in our cooperative programs, that also reach to Economic and Civil Development Cooperation.

STATEMENT ON THE SVARNAN AGGRESSION IN THE CASPIAN
The Kingdom of Reitzmag expresses concern over the recent aggressive acts undertaken by the Naval Branch of the Armed Forces of Svarna Surya, specifically the seizure and captivation of the crew of two commercial vessels flying our nation's flag as a means to demand the forced deportation of political dissidents seeking refuge in the country. We greatly condemn these erratic acts by the Government of Svarna Surya and seek to peacefully put an end to this petty conflict. However, all our efforts to reach out and negotiate diplomatically have failed and thus left us with very limited choices. Having considered the past relationship between our nations, and the situations unfolding locally in the country, we have deemed that the regime in power in such nation as intolerable and must be removed with whatever means necessary.
Through long discussions and consultation with our allies and top experts and diplomats, we have arrived at the conclusion that we may only treat the recent event as an act of war from the Svarnan nation. As such, we are coordinating in every possible way the beginning of military operations to secure our citizens and bring justice to those that perished from the hostile acts of the authoritative militaristic regime that rules a nation that deserves peace and stability.
Due to this, we have placed all branches of the Armed Forces, the Coastguard, and the National Constabulary on high alert for possible retaliatory measures that may occur as a result of our operations. We also welcome cooperation from other nations, to join in aiding Svarnans take refuge from the war in their home nation and help in our humanitarian efforts. We assure each and everyone, that our forces will do their best to minimize civilian casualties and damage to property to easily rebuild the nation back when the objective is reached.
We have also placed Svarnan persons of interest that are seeking refuge in the country in high security to protect them from more attacks. Sanctions packages are also expected to be passed within the next few days on the Svarnan government, and against key persons such as President Neha Bhatavadekar and other top military and government officials.

STATEMENT ON FOREIGN HUMANITARIAN SUPPOR
The Kingdom of Reitzmag expresses its deep gratitude to all nations extending a helping hand in support of those who may be affected by this war, especially the civilian population of Svarna Surya, through Humanitarian Support. It is in our deep interest to protect the lives of those innocent people and open our arms to any aid that may be provided in supporting our humanitarian efforts during this war. Our nation recognizes that, because of current financial limitations and other factors, we are only able to support no more than 200 additional families that seek refuge in our nation.
We would like to confirm, that our nation is expecting the arrival of medical support personnel from our partners Gadalland and Aspern to help treat the needy as they arrive in Reitzmag if this war unfortunately further escalates. And that, we appreciate the support from more nations that may come. Again, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you and have a happy holidays to all.
