Council for the Protection of the Revolution (IC Secret)
-
The Council for the Protection of the Revolution (Ciencol fir shu Phrisucsion if shu Ruzilesion) is a body that is made up of the major UNSR government officials that are in charge of foreign affairs, and the Political Allies of those major officials (these are on the bottom row). The body advises Chairman Jirluchuz and Korojaunu (Prime Minister) Bernie Sanders on the best action to take at home and abroad military, with the goal of protecting the Revolution that was so hard fought for. Cécile Lauce is the official chair as Speaker of the Ausnat, and the deputy is Kim Jo-Jung who is the majority leader of the same body. The Ausnat (the Assembly of Nationalities) is in theory in charge of the UNSR's foreign affairs and has to ratify military actions, but, the Ausnat passed a law called the Gulf of Cesae Vauvra Resolution on the 18th of July 2020 to allow The Council for the Protection of the Revolution to deliberate and make instant decisions on all military matters. The Ausnat, however, retains the right to vote on all other foreign affairs issues.
The key figures' responsibilities are as follows:
- Mirchul Jirluchuz: Arbiter of decisions
- Cécile Laucre: Chair and Spokesperson for the Navy
- Kim Jo-Jung: Vice-Chair, Spokesperson for the Army
- Bernie Sanders, Korojaunu and Foreign Minister: In charge of negotiations with other nations
- Taylor Swift: In charge of nuclear weapons
- Air Marshall Zamolodchikova, Minister of Defense: spokesperson for the Airforce and also inter-branch cooperation
- Danny Devitov: In charge of conformity with International Law about war
- Laulw Forin: Spokesperson for Strategic Forces
- Imelda Wuaulsh: Spokesperson for defense infrastructure and aerospace

The 9 members of Council for the Protection of the Revolution were gathered in the office of the Chairman's Dacha in rural Rujonau. After the statement had been released, they expected that the Reitzmag government would try some malarkey and so they were at high alert.
"Comrades," Majority Leader Kim Jo-Jung said. "A great challenge lays ahead, but the glory and order of socialism will see us through."
The Council applauded.
Taylor Swift chimed in, "you guys are a much better shady organisation than the Ministry of Eurovoice ever was!"
"As Air Marshall and Minister of Defense, I have contacted the relevant military personnel and we have several different units of our modified A-235 anti-ballistic missile units trained on different military and spatial objects, such as satellites, the space station, planes and boats. It will be up to us, the Council, to decide which target is sufficient retribution for the money that we gave to the Reitzmic Menace."
"Perfect." Korojaunu Sanders said. "We just have to wait for them to either choose to do the right thing, or the wrong thing. It is absolutely crucial, comrades, that we do not allow this robbery to take place. Money is tight, comrades. Money is tight. We'll give them another 15 hours to pay the sum. If they don't, we will fire a warning shot."

“It’s been 15 hours.” Said Sanders to the summoned Council. “I think we should do two warning shots, one ICBM with no warhead - nuclear or otherwise - that will crash into the Caspian Sea. The second will be our modified anti-ICBM up to space to drive by the space station. I’ll have my staff send a telegram to the fascists around us so they know we’re not targeting them... Yet.”
The Council was called to a vote, it unanimously supported the Sanders plan.
Air Marshall Zamalodchikova then spoke, “It will be done. Both missiles will be launched within the hour.”
The relevant Generals and Colonels, all under the command of Air Marshall and Minister of Defense Katy’s Petrovna Zamolodchikova, were put to work and the missiles were aimed at their respective targets — or lack thereof.
“If they don’t cooperate, what will we actually destroy?” Cécile Laucre asked.
“I think we need to cross those bridges when we come to it — if you’ll pardon the pun.” Said Jirluchuz.

Air Marshall Katya Zamolodchikova entered the room. "Both objects reached their intended targets - or, again, lack thereof. It has been a great success, ladies and gentlemen."
The Council clapped.
"Now what?" Asked Taylor Swift.
"We have to wait." Said Cécile Laucre. We don't want to push it."
"Of course." Said Sanders. "We'll wait another, maybe, 24 hours for a response."

An old 1980s FAX machine suddenly whirred to life. Many had forgotten it was there, but the interns still made sure that the paper was properly aligned in the dot-matrix feeder.

Bernie Sanders, Korojaunu and Foreign Minister, started the meeting. It would likely be brief, since the Korojaunu held a lot of power; the Assembly of Nationalities had given the Korojaunu a blank slate to deal with Foreign Policy on his own.
'Now, Comrades.' Sanders said with a worried tone. 'There is a bad situation happening in Czech Slahvia. Inquistahn Billionaihs are no doubt behind all this mess. Obviously, the parade there is going ahead, but I think we need to prepare our military heading out there for an... intervention of some kind. We absolutely cannot afford a Czech government collapse. It might be the end of us, too. They are our only voice in Europolis. There have been recent, very close votes, which would lead to our destruction if they pahssed. So, Comrades, I am proposing we send 80,000 troops to take part, including 2 tank regiments, and a squadron of each type of our planes only for the parade, returning immediately afterwards as they will not help us against these reactionary terrorists.'
Taylor Swift, recently back from a walk in the woods, agreed. 'Absolutely. We need to kill these terrorists like I'm currently killing the surprise album game.'
Kim Jo-Jung, the Majority Leader, said 'what if there is a man with shopping bags that bravely defies our tanks, and a western journalist captures this and this man becomes famous for defying the Czech regime, and this creates international outrage ?'
Sanders replied: 'we will deny that that happened, of course.'
'Ah, right, okay.' Kim Jo-Jung nodded in agreement.
"So, are we all agreed ?'
The entire council unanimously supported the contingent to go to Czech Slavia and participate in the parade, and then remain until the terrorist disturbances ceased.
