ON SPANISH CLAIMS OF THE ADVENTURANZA STRAIT
The Ruthenish government has been watching the dispute of the Spanish claims in the Adventuranza Strait with growing concern. We implore all parties involved in the dispute to deescalate the situation and work out a sensible solution acceptable to everyone. We respect the territorial integrity of the Kingdom of Spain and they have the right to defend their territory. However we ask the government in Madrid to listen to the grievances lodged by the Federal Republic of Yosai and to work towards a positive relationship with the government in Tokyo as well as respecting their own right to territorial integrity.

The Ruthenish government stands by the belief that military escalation in the strait is destructive to any negotiations held and calls on all parties to halt military advances within the strait and allow a peaceful agreement to be made unhindered.

Lord Zgeirtanaz Hulnkrimnazen
Steward of the Mekilfyraz Throne
Lord of the Realm of Great Ruthund
