URHP Declares State of Peace with Allanea
Government officials remain staunchly pacifistic in latest crisis..
HVITTSTED (Aug. 15) -- Earlier today, the Blått Hus firmly announced that the United Republics of the Hvittsted Pact (Aldonska, Lietuveska, Nurvaaks, and Sociano) are officially at a state of peace with the United States of Allanea. Advisor to the Premier, Itarildë Eledhwen, has pronounced that the URHP has no desire to continue an official state of war. "Though the response from the Allanean government was firm, our rebuttal will be stubborn. In no way will the URHP engage in any act of war with Allanea, and in no way will we be attacked. Such options are simply not realistic, fair, or rational." Furthermore, the Premier publicly displayed a message sent to the Allanean government by the Lietuv Ministry of Foreign Affairs:

To whom it may concern:

The Lietuv government has painfully become aware that our nations are still in an official state of war. Unknowing to us that the Treaty of Deriksburg was nothing more than a cease-fire treaty, we assumed that our two nations were at peace. Therefore, Lietuveska will propose peace between our nations publicly (i.e.-the forums) after we have received a response. Please be aware that peace is the only option in this situation for the Lietuv government, and war will not be tolerated. Thank you, and we apologize for any inconveniences this may create.

Premier Kasparov, however, did not make the Allanean response public, only giving one quote out of the message, which was said to be very brief. The Allanean government said that they would "sign a peace agreement with you on condition that the trade boycott will be repealed, of course." This message is rather vague, but it was assumed that the Allaneans wanted the entire embargo introduced by Knootoss to be repealed, which is "a prepostorous ultimatum," said Itarildë Eledhwen. "Even if the proposal were that the URHP alone retreat from the boycott, the Premier and I have agreed that such a direction is not sensible and is out of the question. We are at peace with Allanea as far as the URHP is concerned."

The entire debacle has arisen over all four republics of the URHP signing a KIST-sponsored embargo upon the United States of Allanea for immediately rendering a $100 million transaction useless. The self-proclaimed liberal nation was unhappy with the quality of products sold by Zero-One, and thus cancelled its transaction. The URHP, seeing this as a heinous, selfish, and ridiculous act, immediately signed the KIST-sponsored embargo placed upon Allanea. With its oil fields burning, and now with dozens of nations halting all trade and the future of any trade, the United States of Allanea is "in the doghouse," as the Advisor to the Premier stated.
