"Our government has decided to fully integrate towards market policies." said the Treasury Minister today. "The banning of free enterprise is of the past. Our economic data shows that capitalism breeds innovation, which is important to Tekhina. The government will still play a heavy regulatory role in the mixed economy we hope to make, but free enterprise will be encouraged. The policies will be brought in as soon as relevent issues come before our leader."
"We are beginning a military expansion, already underway." said the Defense Minister today. "Purchases have already been made. Our troops will be equipped with a Heckler and Koch G3A4 Battle Rifle. It was selected for its cost, accuracy, caliber, reliability and retractable butt. The Heckler and Koch USP Mark 23, also known as the SOCOM, will be the standard sidearm. It was selected for its capability to accept add-ons and its accuracy. The PSG-1, also by Heckler and Koch, was selected as the sniper rifle for its accuracy. We purchased the MG3 mounted in pods for shore defense as well. We have also purchased infantry equipment from Freedom Country and vehicles from United Elias. We are still looking for the following:
1. A fairly cheap, but high-quality tank.
2. A modern, but fairly cheap, GPMG.
3. An armored personnel carrier that holds eight (no more, no less) troops. Our reasons for this number are classified.
Also, we are going to try to develop an upgraded version of the venerable RPG-7. If any nations would be interested in doing a joint-development project with us, please telegram."
"We would also like to announce that we are stepping up police numbers and harshening sentencing." says the Justice Minister. "The legislation will be rolled in overnight. This is in response to a recent rise in crime rates."
And those are all the announcments out of the nation of Tekhina for today.
