President Zaitsev quietly walked down the steps of his TU-144 which had just arrived at the Demak Private Airfield. He took a breath of the chill night air and smiled. A fine day it was turning out to be. He went inside the Airfield Lobby and waited for the other delegates to arrive. He was surrounded by about 10 or so Secret Service Agents and there were about 10 more hiding somewhere. They got annoying at times, but hell, after the assasination attempt... As he waited he turned to Field Marshal Zharin.

"What do you think?"

"What?"

"Will they enjoy the coffee?"

"Surely."

Tag for now. I'll post a little later.

The president descended onto the foreign soil- around him stoff 50 of hius nations greatest warriors- he was here to claim justice to those who had fallen in the great garden

OOC I am with the Commonweatlh nations here, but I may form a middle ground, we will see

Ambassador Midian arrived in the diplomatic chinnok the NCDC reserved for these long haul visits. He intendended to settle the dispute but more importantly, he needed to find out more about the capabilitys of the terrorists. He hoped to discover that shortly, as he made his way to the central office.

President Zaitsev strode forward and shook Ambassador Midian's hand and then shook the Glemte Hageian President's hand.

"Pleasure to meet you, a pleasure. Alright then, our vehicle will arrive shortly and will take us to the meeting hall."

"Indeed it is a pleasure to meet you to" the president smiles, "I do not have a name for it is a tradition of ours that the president should keep the name Glemte Hage.
"I only hope we can end this misunderstanding before more lives are lost"

He looked at the president of Glemte Hage amd raised an eyebrow and decided not to comment. Instead, he turned and pointed at three helicopters that were headed toward them. There were two MI-28 "Havoc" helicopters, bristling with weapons, and a single Black Hawk Helicopter flanked on both sides by the massive MI-28's.

"It is my pleasure too to meet you" the ambassador replied "I only hope this situation can, as I suspect it can, be resolved peacefully" he then began to ask what he needed to "Who exactly are these enemies and why do they hate you so much?"

On board Concorde, Her Majesty's Government; Rt Hon Prime Minister, Foreign Secretary, Defence Secretary, Chief of Defence Staff & First Lord of the Admiralty prepare for landing at Demak Airbase. They are accompanied by the free press of the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations.

Her Majesty's Government Communications Director
On board Concorde Flight 001

The Helicopters flew past them.

"Just the daily patrols."

He chuckled as a Limousine pulled up.

"Get inside. We'll wait for the others in the warm vehicle."

He stepped inside the large limousine.

TG TO RATHEIA:

The Dominion regrets to inform you that while Godular has vested interests in Glemte Hage's national well being, we have reliable intelligence that GH is currently undergoing an attack by Cuffingford at this very moment. And is currently debating whether or not to send support to assist in GH's defense.

Please notify the President of GH of the situation.

The Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations leaves Concorde with his other ministerial colleagues to be greeted by the Great leader of Ratheia. They discuss the situation. The Prime Minister looks tierd and stressed - the war has obviously taken its toll- notably because of the death of his dear friend Sir Arthur Goodwill, Leader of the House of Commons.
They enter the limousine and drive to the venue where the talks will be held.

OOC: The venue is.....?

The Prime Minister looks tierd and stressed - the war has obviously taken its toll- notably because of the death of his dear friend Sir Arthur Goodwill, Leader of the House of Commons.
They enter the limousine and drive to the venue where the talks will be held.

OOC: The venue is.....?

OOC: Try to...not....godmode.

The Limousine hummed quietly as Zaitsev waited to make sure everyone was inside.

OOC: godmode...sorry what does that mean?!

Indeed- all other nations bar Guffingford were happy with the Ashes of the cross treaty- we feel this war is unjust and are trying to fight them off

OOC: godmode...sorry what does that mean?!

OOC: When you tell me what my character is doing. Like when you said the limousine drives off and we discuss.

OOC: Thanks
IC:
The Prime Minister of Commonwealth sits in the limousine with this other cabinet members. ''I don't understand how the Glemte Hage leaders are going to get out of this" said the PM to his Foreign Secretary."We did nothing wrong-first they threaten us, they when we say we are not going to tolerate a threat, they bomb us-I mean are these people insane". The Foreign Secretary agreed, telling the PM "Don't worry sir-we will get our say and I'm sure the international community will back us".

/ooc /cough bigger fish to fry /cough

Zaitsev motioned for Ambassador Midian and President Glemte to get inside as he turned to the person from the Commonwealth.

"Who are you, again?"

" Mr Zaitsev, I am Sir Arthur Liberty, the Commonwealth Foreign Secretary. Its an honour to meet you sir. The Prime Minister Lord Scotland is just behind me. Can I just say how thankful we are to you sir, for all your help in this unfortunate conflict". The PM, Lord Scotland turns up, and approaches Mr Zaitsev with a smile, almost with relief.

He nodded and smiled.

"Oh, don't you worry about it."

The PM greeted Mr Zaitsev, saying "An honour to meet you Mr Zaitsev. I and Her Majesty the Queen are so thankful to you for all your help". Looking around the surrounding landscapes of Demak Airbase, the PM told Mr Zaitsev "my, what a beautiful country-those mountains look stunning". The PM took a deep breath and followed Mr Zaitsev

"Not really. The cool mountains are down south."

He sighed and grabbed Ambassador Midian and yanked him into the limo. Noticing that the Glemte Hageian president had run away somewhere Zaitsev gave up.

"Driver, let's get going. If they want to come there'll be another limo waiting for them."

The limo sped up to about 50 mph and rattled down the deserted streets.

"Mr Zaitsev, Ambassadoe Midian, the fact that the Glemte leader has run away is clear sign of his guilt" said the PM.
The car came to a halt and the PM said "ah, I think we have arrived".

"Mr Zaitsev, Ambassadoe Midian, the fact that the Glemte leader has run away is clear sign of his guilt" said the PM.
The car came to a halt and the PM said "ah, I think we have arrived".

OOC: Godmodding....

OOC: Sorry again!!!!
IC:
So, Mr Zaitsev, where will the talks take place?

"Right....here."

The car came to a halt outside a magnificently ornate building. It looked like it was plated in gold. The building was about 25 stories in height and about equally wide. It was coverd with one massive dome. Zaitsev stepped outside and headed toward the entrance.


"Follow me."

The PM and the rest of his team follow Mr Zaitsev

He stepped inside and looked around at the many asembled government officials and just...people.

"Hey! Mark! Is everything set? Good."

He took a few steps forward and then amde a sharp left and pressed a button to summon the elevator.

Again the PM and his team follow Mr Zaitsev

Inside the elevator he went and as they followed him he pressed the button marked Z-7. The elevator went up to the very top floor and opened.

'We're here!"

OOC:brb

The PM sat down on his chair with his team and started.
"Mr Zaitsev, Ambassador Midian & Ladies and Gentlemen of the press. I thank Mr Zaitsev and his great Nation for his help in our nations hour of need. Today, we, Her Majesty's Government of the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations are here to put right the injust actions taken by The Armed Republic of Glemte Hage. We shall, through the course of these discussions, show that the Commonwealth Nations acted proper and in accordance with International law that applies to it in order to defend itself. We have done no wrong".Taking his glasses off, the PM says 'Mr Zaitsev, over to you".

"This is correct."

Zaitsev sat down in his swivel chair.

"The enemy attacked the Commonwealth first. They fired the first shot and we decided to react. In our opinions, Hage had no right to do what they did. We were justified when we attacked."

OOC:I'll be back in a little bit.

"How much proof did you have that it was this nation that attacked you" Ambassador Midian asked

The Wolfish Delegation touched down at the Demak airport – in the Sikorsky S-92, [http://www.sikorsky.com/Images/SAC_Sikorsky_Aircraft_Corporation/US-en/S92.jpg]
first out of the craft was the security team – four men and one woman, each wearing impeccable Armani suits, with the requisite squiggly earpiece.

The scanned the area for the scheduled limo – and, once they checked the interior they signaled the helicopter to allow the Emissary to exit.

“Sir – the other delegates have arrived. We can go directly to the meeting in this car.”

“Thank you. Let’s get this over with.”

*Wolfish delegating consisting of Emissary Damien Tasson, five security staff, and personal assistant to the Emissary, Jin Wassip, are en route to the meeting location in the car provided by the local government.

"I will now talk of what happened, that fateful day when the Commonwealth Nations were attacked", said the Prime Minister.
" We, Her Majesty's Government had officially announced to the world that it had acquired The Protectorate of Rule Britannica from The Soviet Republique of Mor Tau. In its statement, our government advised all nations with diplomatic relations with the Protectorate of Rule Britannica to leave the Island and relocate to Commonwealthian -the capital city of the Commonwealth Nations, as Rule Britannica was now part of the Commonwealth Nations, and therefore we would represent her. A copy of the telegram is below":

*********copy of telegram********
The Protectorate of Rule Brittanica - National Embassies & Consulates asked to leave

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
A new Governer General has been appointed by Her Majesty's Government of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations, when it today accquired this protectorate from the Communist Federation of Mora Tau. The Britannic Government therefore would like to have it known that its interest will now be represented by The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (UN Member) as it completes the phases required to pass the Act of Union. As a result, all countries with diplomatic representation are kindly asked by Her Majesty's Government to leave and make their representation in Commonwealthian - the capital city of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations. Countries are asked to send a telegram to Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations to arrange their new representation as they will receive an invitation to the official signing of the Act of Union between Rule Britannica and The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations.
We would like to add, the people of Rule Britannica were asked to vote on the transfer of power at the request of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations. Turnout was 96% and 91% of the electorate endorsed the transfer of power. This is a clear indication of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nation's commitment to democracy, justice and freedom.
We, the people of Rule Britannica are now the people of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations, with nothing but optimism in our hearts.
God Save Her Majesty the Queen of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations, whose support has been great.

Royal Britannic Governor General Sir Douglas Alexander Heathgulanja
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations Protectorate Office

------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It was clear from our statement that the Commonwealth Nations had acquired the protectorate by democratic means. However, for The Armed Republic of Glemte Hage, this statement seemed to anger them. They contacted Sir Arthur Liberty, our foreign secretary with the following telegram":

********copy of telegram********
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What justification do you have for ordering those nations to leave? we will not watch this tyranny
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The foreign secretary was confused with this respone. We had clearly told the Glemte Hegian Government in our telegram of the elections and the democratic process we took when we accquired the protectorate. As a result, I ask the foreign secretary to reply to the Glemte Hegian Government, stating that we were not tyrannical, and that we were worried of what they meant by 'we will not watch this tyranny'. To us, this seemed like a threat to the Commonwealth Government. A copy of the telegram is below:

********copy of telegram********
Her Majesty's Government is somewhat confused by the remarks made the Government of Glemte Hage, when it said "What justification do you have for ordering those nations to leave? we will not watch this tyranny" in response to the proposed Act of Union between The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nation and Rule Britannica.
Firstly, The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations is a democratic nation, with democratically elected leaders,
2, We would like to add, the people of Rule Britannica were asked to vote on the transfer of power at the request of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations. Turnout was 96% and 91% of the electorate endorsed the transfer of power. This is a clear indication of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nation's commitment to democracy, justice and freedom.
3,We find it astonishing that a nation where civil rights and political freedoms are outlawed has the cheek to lecture The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations on tyranny.
We demand a reply from the Glemte Hage Government about what it mean when it said "we will not watch this tyranny", as Her Majesty's Government does not take kindly to threats.

Her Majesty's Foreign Secretary
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (& Protector of Rule Britannica)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
" The Glemte Hegian Govt replied, with a confused statement, but importantly it said that they did not plan to start a war. However, later we received intelligence from our security authorites that the Glemte Hegian Government wanted to bomb Commonwealthian, our capital city. The telegram and our security report is below:

********copy of telegram********
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We are under the impression you are forcibly removing nations, which counts as tyranny

And rest assured- we simply protect our people from themselves

I notice a veiled threat in your comment, rest assured we do not plan to start a war
********copy of security report********
CODE RED CODE RED CODE RED CODE RED
Dear Prime Minister,
I have just informed the Foreign and Defence Secretary of reports we have received that the Glemte Hegian Government is seeking to bomb Commonwealthian city centre. I would urge you to bring all resources to strengthen the city against an attack.
Sebastian Emeyefive
------------------------------------------------------------------
"With, this I tried to contact the Glemte Hegian Govt immedietly, however, it was too late before we got a reply-the Houses of Commons was bombed with the loss of 1467 people." The Prime Minister spoke with a tear in his eye.
It was because of this we were bombed and savagely attacked. Attacked because of an issue which did not even effect the Glemte Hegian government. I had no choice but to declare war and protect Her Majesty's Kingdom. I therefore issued a telegram to the world, stating that war had started and that we needed help. Below is the telegram".

********copy of telegram********
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Her Majesty's Government would like to confirm that an act of terrorism has just been carried out against the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations. Series of bombs exploded outside the very busy Parliament building. 1000 people have been reported dead, including Sir Arthur Goodwill, Leader of the House of Commons.
There is no doubt that the Armed Republic of Glemte Hage is responsible for this act of terrorism - Please see our earlier posting which detailed a threat received from them against us.
Today, our nation bleeds, and as a result, WAR exists between the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations and The Armed Republic of Glemte Hage.
We ask nation who believe in freedom and democracy to come on our side to defeat tyranny. We will ask the UN for help shortly.
Please help our battered nation in our hour of peril.
Her Majesty's Prime Minister
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (Protector of Rule Britannica)--------------------------------------------------------------------
"After this, we received a telegam from the Glemte Hegian govt, saying it was not them. We replied, saying that it was them and as a result war existed. Very quickly, the Glemte Hegian govt did a u-turn and said that if we did not declare peace, they would attack as their ships were closing in on us. We replied, that we would not shot unless we were provoked. Copy of telegrams are below:"

********copy of telegram****************
Glemte Hage would like to point out that this appears to be an attack by a splinter cell- the Hagen Evangelists, they claim to protect our nations pride, though they are a big influence in the south of our nation.

We offer our condolences to the dead

We feel sorry that you suffered at the hands of this remorseless group and offer the following to help you hunt down the Evangelists responsible- they are already heading your way
----------------------------------------------------
Her Majesty's Government will not be duped by a tyrannical and terrorist state. Our evidence has shown that The Armed Republic of Glemte Hage is responsible for the murder of now 1389 citizens (and rising). We ask the interantional community for help immedietly. Her Majesty's Government feels sidelined as we have received no support at the moment.
Her Majesty's Foreign Secretary
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (Protector of Rule Britannica----------------------------------------------------------
In which case you will be pleased to hear my ships currently surround one of the commonwealths costal cities- well in one hour they will, if peace is not declared we shall destroy the city and everyone within ---------------------------------------------------------------
Her Majesty's Government would like to remind Glemte Hage that if it dares to enter our territorial waters, the Glemte Hage ships will be destroyed. Over the past years, Her Majesty's Navy has developed Naval weaponary unrivalled anywher in the world. Glemte Hage ships enter their peril, considering that the Hirgizstanian Government has its Naval weaponary stationed in all ports.
Enter at your peril

Her Majesty's First Lord of the Admiralty
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (Protector of Rule Britannica)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"It is clear from these telegrams, that they wanted to attack. Our First Lord of the Admiralty clearly informs the Glemte Hegian government that if it attacked us, we would retalliate. So when, the Glemte Hegian government informed us that they did not believe our naval power, the bombed us. As a result, we took action. Copy of the telegram below:"

********copy of telegram********
"Glemte Hage believes you overrate your weaponsand thus the fleet will not stop,

Furthermore- the harriers have being launched to bomb the naval defences around the city"

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Her Majesty's Government has confirmed the sight of a bomb heading towards the port city of Libertypool. Our Navy has derailed the bomb and consequently preserved the life of 6 million people. Unfortunatly, 68 people have died where the bomb eventually landed.
As a result, 2 1000lbs bombs have been let off - Our reports and of those from the Hirgizstanian government show that the Naval presence of Glemte Hage has been destroyed completely.
Any remaining Glemte Hage forces will be recovered by our forces and treated for wounds and taken care of. We will use the Geneva Convention.
Any other attacks, will be dealt with by further, more powerful force, unrivalled by Glemte Hage.

Her Majesty's First Lord of the Admiralty
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (Protector of Rule Britannica) -----------------------------------------------------------------

"It is clear ladies and gentlemen, that we are innocent victims, and consequently ask you to take action against The Armed Republic of Glemte Hage".
"Thank you".

ooc: for the purposes of clarity - I'm going to assume that the Wolfish delegation has arrived at the meeting, and isn't in the limo anymore.

ic:

The Emissary stood from his seat at the table and clapped his hands twice..."Well Done...Bravo...Encore - Encore... Friends...what we have here is a production of pure Oscar calibre. Showmanship worth of the highest praise."

He left his seat and slowly circled around the table while talking.

"What our friends - here - fail to point out is that they took absolutely no time - made no effort - to collect any evidence from the bombed legislature.

In very simple terms - they assumed that their old enemy was responsible for this attack."

The Prime Minister got out of his seat and with a raise voice said:
"Excuse me sir! You do not know anything about my nations. My nation,...my GREAT nation has never had any enemies, indeed, this was the first time in our history that we had been threatened by a foreign power. So when you say thet Gelmte Hage is our 'old enemy' you do not know what you are talking about. As for the Parliament, you are correct when you say we didn't have evidence, however, our security services intersepted telegrams which showed that Glemte Gage wanted to attack us. Then a few moments later we are attacked. The when I confron the Gelmte Hageians, they first deny it, and when they know that does not work, they threaten us, thinking we had no might. How wrong they were!"

The sleek black leer Jet landed gracefully on a small private runway in Demak.
Inside where the Hirgizstanian Delegation, Defence Minister, Secretary of the Commonwealth, Foreign Secretary, Head of Legionnaire's (a Colony of the COH) Colonial Armed Forces and a number of Department Officials. The Plane was met by a limousine which drove quickly to the meeting place, the delegation having arrived late.

The Hirgizstanian Delegation were led into the room and seated as the Kingdom's evidence of recent events was being presented.

The Prime Minister got out of his seat and with a raise voice said:
"As for the Parliament, you are correct when you say we didn't have evidence, however, our security services intersepted telegrams which showed that Glemte Gage wanted to attack us."

The Emissary looked up, a slight smile turned his lip up slightly.

"Mr. Prime Minister - please try to calm yourself, lest you have an accident."

He continued his slow circling of the table - stopping at the refreshment bar for a glass of water.

"You have just admitted that while some in Glemte Hage threatened you - which I might point out is a fairly common experience in this world we call NationStates - you have absolutely no evidence that the Government of Glemte Hage was responsible for the attack."

He took a long drink from his glass and set it back down.

"For all you know - some in your own country could have been responsible for the bombing - you said yourself that you have high voter turnout for the recent vote...typically that demonstrates that the issue is highly controversial. Perhaps some didn't like the outcome, and decided to take matters into their own hands."

He stopped his pacing, and turned directly to the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth.

"Or - perhaps it was an attack by some within Glemte Hage. But that doesn't mean it was sponsored by the government of that nation. I would suggest that perhaps you try to take a step back from all this anger you're feeling, and try to look at the issue dispassionately."

Zaitsev quirked an eyebrow as he sat and sipped his coffee. He did not much enjoy talking to the Wolfish Emissary. He had intelligence, and that was dangerous in someone who opposed Ratheian tactics. And damnit, he talked like a lawyer. Zaitsev showed no reaction and waited for the right moment to spring the trap.

ooc: A LAWYER - lol - close - RL - Political Strategist.

ooc: A LAWYER - lol - close - RL - Political Strategist.


OOC: lol indeed. A Political lawyer.

The Prime Minister, who was by now quite amgry got out of his chair and started to mimick the emissary,
" Well, well, just because the Government of Wolfish likes to have wars without proper consideration, does not mean that we, in the civilised world do the same. Emissary, you are trying to suggest that we rushed into war without considering the implications. We in the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations don't believe that war is a good thing, that is why we avoid it all cost. I sat with my cabinet and thoroughly thought out my countries response, and also carefully considered who was the culprit. To be honest, ther wasn't much to discuss when the Glemte Hageian Govt as good as admitted to its involvement. I'm beginning to think whether the emissary can read properly, or even listen properly. In the transcripts of the telegrams, the Glemte Hageian Govt says firstly that it has no involvement, and blames another group. When we rejected that answer, they replied that they would bomb our cities. When we replied, that we would not attack unless provoked, they attacked us. They shot fist. Now, if the Glemte Hageians were not responsible, why did they see the need to threaten us with attacks, and then carry them out even when we said that we would not attack first? The answer is, they were guilty and they knew it. We would never had attacked them, if you read the telegrams we sought UN help. But when they attacked, it was too late. So emissary, please get your facts right and open your eyes and see the danger of lunatic, despotic and tyrannical government of Glemte Hage!"

"Well said, Prime Minister. However, one could make the argument that President Glemte Hage is just insane."

Zaitsev chuckled and waited for the Wolfish Emissary to respond.

The Emissary didn’t miss a beat, in his trademark calm voice he continued, “Mr. Prime Minister – please calm yourself – perhaps you need an afternoon nap before we proceed? But before I request a recess – so that you can compose yourself – I would ask that you consider the following…

Now I should preface this by saying that I’m not suggesting that Glemte Hage is without blame – however, did you consider, when the Glemte Hage fleet entered your waters in attempting diplomacy? When you learned there were bombers in the air heading for your city, did you attempt to contact the nation of Glemte Hage? When Glemte Hage first entered your waters, did you “fire a shot across their bow?”

I would say the answer to each is a definitive “no”.

You acted in haste, with a blatant disregard for life. You responded with overwhelming force, killing many thousand more that you lost.

That – SIR – is not the way of civilized peoples.”

"Foolish of you, Mr. Emissary. How can one attempt diploamcy when they are under attacK? Do tell. When bombers headed to my cities in my war against Hataria all those years ago, I contacted noone. I attacked them abck. There is no time for diplomacy when one is fighting insane dictators. Remeber that, Mr. Emissary, before you put the blame on her Majesty. And, of course, it was I who ordered the attacks on the Glemte Hageian Fleet. I hold full responisbility for the Sunburn barrage."


OOC: Off to the doctor's office. See's ya's laters.

"There is always time for diplomacy my good sir."

An aide entered the room and handed the Emissary a note. He read for less than 10 seconds and looked around the room.

"It is my duty to inform this group that Wolfish Forces have destroyed a terrorist camp deep within the Commonwealth.

My understanding is that four B-71 bombers, operating out of Sirik Island Airforce Base, delivered 100,000 pound of "bunker buster" high explosives into a tight area.

I can provide each member of this group with the intelligence data and video footage of the attack.

Now - if our host will permit - I would request a brief recess so I can consult with my government."

As he returned to his seat, his aide began handing out file folders, containing a video disk and still photos from the attack.

"Emissary, I am beginning to wonder whether you are a Glemte Hageian yourself, because I think I am not the only one here thinking that you are either rather dim, or simply aren’t good with your literacy skills.
Now, I shall speak slowly so you don’t miss what I say, please feel free to interrupt if you get confused, because I feel you usually do." T
The Prime Minister took the tone of a teacher as if talking to a boy and said "now, if you read the telegram, actually, I think its best I do that for you! If you look at this telegram sent by the Defence Secretary at my request, I clearly asked for an explanation:
*
****TELEGRAM FROM HER MAJESTY'S MINISTRY OF DEFENCE*****
Her Majesty's Government would like to warn the Republic of Glemte Hage that its threat to set off a car bomb in the capital city 'Commonwealthian' is regarded as an act of terrorism which will mean that WAR will exist between are two nations.
Her Majesty's Government will not tolerate such threats from a tyrannical dictatorship and as a result has decided to commence military intervention at the request of the UN only if any act of terror is carried out.
Her Majesty's Government demands a replt from the Glemte Hage Government immedietly.

Her Majesty's Foreign Secretary & Defence Minister
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations (Protector of Rule Britannica)


------------------------------------------------------
"I clearly demanded an answer. Now if the emissary doesn't still undertsand what I am saying, I am willing to enrol him at my local school"

The Emissary waited for the host to declare a recess...but he couldn't resist providing an answer to the Prime Minister.

"Mr. Minister...all I see is a telegram from YOUR Defense Minister to you. I see no evidence. I have not seen the "intercepted" data that you claim - I see only your arrogance."

"I can't believe this guy" laughed the Prime Minister.
"Its OK Emissary, I will apply for you to attend:
ABC Elementary School
Constitutional Crescent
Commonwealthian City
The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations."
"If that is advanced, I can lower you to nursery (kindergarten).
" I have just told you - that telegram is proof that i contacted the Geltme Hargian government, what don't you understand?" The Foreign Secretary replied for the Emissary "everything"!

"I can't believe this guy" laughed the Prime Minister.
"Its OK Emissary, I will apply for you to attend:
ABC Elementary School

"If that is advanced, I can lower you to nursery (kindergarten).
" I have just told you - that telegram is proof that i contacted the Geltme Hargian government, what don't you understand?" The Foreign Secretary replied for the Emissary "everything"!

The Emissary's aide had stood quietly behind his master's chair - in the shadows next to the wall. His hands shook from the rage he felt burning inside as this pleeb insulted his master.

With the Prime Minister's final taunt, the aide reached into his suit jacket, and drew a Glock 17, 9mm semi-automatic pistol.

Like most in Wolfish - the aide had been conscripted to military service, and had been trained well in the art of war.

Before the rest of the Wolfish delegation even realized what was happening, the aide fire - and again, and again directly at the Prime Minister - 10 shots rang out.

Wolfish security acted quickly - one dove for the aide - hitting him squarely, and taking him to the floor, while the other three guards - weapons drawn - grabbed the Emissary roughly, and dragged him from the room.

ooc: typically in NS parties are searched, and weapons removed prior to a conference - particularly those involving heads of state. Now you know why.

The Prime Minister, Lord Scotland fell to the ground, whilst the ambulance members tries to save him. The PM was dead. Commonwealth army officials and security tried to run after the Wolvish government, but they fled.
The Foreign Secretary Sir Arthur Liberty, and the rest of the Commonwealth team weeped at the loss of great man; a great libertarian.
Lord Scotland's body was taken away, and the Foreign Secretary turned to Mr Zeitsev, and said "The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations will act, and we demand your help". With that said, the Commonwealth delegation escorted their dead leader to hospital.

OOC: Can we have Mr Zaitsev's reaction to the death of the commonwealth PM's murder?

As the PM of the Kingdom was shot the Hirgizstanian Delegates were thrown out of their chairs by their bodyguards. Each was dragged quickly out of the room and out of the building to a waiting Limousine. Each man was thrown inside as quickly as possible, and with a squeal of tires the Limousine sped away.

Inside the Limousine the Politicians composed themselves, each phoning their separate offices in a frantic bid to organise a stance on the subject. The Foreign Secretary shouted for silence loudly. Each man began to slow down, putting their phones away or tapping 'hold' buttons. The Foreign Secretary spoke calmly, "The Fuhrer wishes to make an address." He put the car-phone back into its cradle and hit the speaker button, "Go ahead my Fuhrer."

"Very well. It seems the meeting has broken down into a shooting match, there's always a first for everything. I am glad to hear that my trusted delegates are in good health, i apologise for the protocol of the bodyguards if they seemed to manhandle you, but you know its for your own good. So the Prime Minister of the Kingdom has been shot, this is deeply worrying. However, i do not want to be hasty in military terms, i feel this would upset this delecate situation even more. I suggest another meeting. This time it shall be on our terms, the proper terms. I will charge you with organising the Talks. Hold them in Victories, Empire City. I trust all security arrangements will be taken care of. Gentlemen, take your leave and report back in a few hours."

The Secretary said his thanks and put the speaker phone off, lifting the phone to speak personally to the Fuhrer, while the rest of the delegates returned to their own business.

OPEN INVIATION TO PEACE TALKS

FROM: COMMONWEALTH OF HIRGIZSTAN FOREIGN OFFICE
TO: ALL NATION STATES INVOLVED IN THE PREVIOUS TALKS

The breakdown of the current talks in this most disgraceful fashion has prompted yet more hostility. The brash and much unwarranted actions of the Wolfish nation are deplorable, but a military answer may not be what we have to settle for. The Commonwealth of Hirgizstan invites the delegacies of the previous meeting to new talks in the Commonwealth State of Victories. If you wish to attend please come to Demak airfield to be security vetted fully. 1 Bodyguard is allowed per delegation, this man should carry no weapons whatsoever and will not be allowed into the debate chamber. Each delegation will travel on a separate Lear Jet piloted by COH pilots. Once landed the delegations will be taken to the Rinine Palace, Empire City. The debate chamber will be a neutral setting. Only one security guard from the COH will be allowed into the chamber, un-armed, only this man and the delegations will be allowed inside, no bodyguards. All who wish to sign up to these talks please state this after this post.

OPEN INVIATION TO PEACE TALKS

FROM: COMMONWEALTH OF HIRGIZSTAN FOREIGN OFFICE

Wolfish officially protests this use of language. The Nation of Wolfish - its government and Leadership are blameless in this matter. The action that ended the talks were the actions of one individual, without consent or knowledge of the Emissary or the Wolfish government.

We request that your invitation reflect that fact.

There was a flurry of gunshots including fir from three snipers at the idiot brandhishing the weapon. Zaitsev ducked down and made a roll. He was careful not to get shot. Looking around he noticed the room emptying in a flurry of excitement and violence. And suddenly, oh so suddenly, he saw the PM lying dead on the floor. He looked at the body, confused and not-believeing. Then came the rage and the anger.

"(expletive)!"

Zaitsev left the room in a flurry of unprecedented anger.

TO: Wolfish Command
FROM: President Zaitsev

Keep your filthy untrained, uncivlized, barbaric idiots out of my country. We will have no further diplomatic relations involving Wolfish. Goodbye and good riddance.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zaitsev boarded his TU-144 and flew back to the Capitol where everything was in an uproar.

"What's happening?"

"Glemte Hage, sir. Attacked!"

"(Expletive)"

"We have fighters en route."

"(expletive) good."

A Wolfish citizen carried out this deplorable and unwarranted attack. The context in which the attack was carried out pointed toward the Wolfish delegation being responsible, this is a fair conclusion when the matter is looked into. However, this new information has been brought to light. It seems that only one individual was responsible.

In that case the peace talks in Victories should go ahead, with the added duty of trying this 'individual' (should he survive the sniper fire) with 1st Degree murder of a foreign statesman. For peace talks to be continued this man would need to be tried and condemned to whatever sentence is appropriate under the Wolfish State Judicial system.

Again, if you wish to join in new Peace talks please say yes afterward and whether or not you want a new thread for these new talks.

I also urge Ratheia to call off your military forces. This is not a time for war-making, this is a time for re-conciliation, any brash moves at this point could explode this situation, we must not let this happen if peace is to prevail.

TG to Hirgizstan:

As you are currently overseeing the negotiations between the nations of Glemte Hage and the Commonwealth, particularly as a neutral peace-brokering party, we request your presence at the negotiating table with regards to a second conflict that sprung up in Glemte Hage while you were dealing with the situation in the Commonwealth.

A truly neutral party's presence is requested for this second situation to be rectified.

Reply to TG from Godular:

I would be most pleased to mediate in the situation you have described. A link to the thread and an overview of the situation from both sides would be very much appreciated.

Her Majesty's Government apologises for the delay in its response to the offer made by our good friends in the Hirgizstanian and Ratheian Governments, but the world must understand that grief that the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations felt and still feels at the loss of its Prime Minister Lord Scotland.
I, as the new Prime Minister have had to take a very difficult decision, with regards to the offer being made of further talks. As you can understand, I have the duty to lead Her Majesty's Kingdom to a brighter future, where justice has been done for the evil act of terror which was perpetrated against us, and the great memory of our late Prime Minister is not shadowed by this evil. With this heavy responsibility upon myself, and Her Majesty's Government, we have decided that The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations will not take part in any talks with the Wolfish Government until our proposed UN Resolution, 'The State Gun Control Act' has been passed. Until this is done, Her Majesty's Government will sever all diplomatic & economic ties with the Wolfish Government. Her Majesty's Government will instead ask one of the nations at the Demak Talks to act as a 'go-between' between the us and the Wolfish Government, as Her Majesty's Government has not ruled out using its vast and strong military power to pressurise the Wolfish Government to hand over the culprit who is responsible for this crime.
Her Majesty's Government regrets if any nation is unhappy with our position, but we feel we have no other option.

Don't try to threaten Wolfish with your "vast and strong miltary power". I could crush you in ten seconds flat, and Wolfish is much, much, larger than Ratheia.

We support you, but be wary of who you threaten!

I would be most pleased to mediate in the situation you have described. A link to the thread and an overview of the situation from both sides would be very much appreciated.

The Situation at its beginning (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=369268&page=2)

After the first war between Glemte Hage and... well... everybody, Guffingford stationed a "Peacekeeping" force on Glemte Hage. However, as a result of our capable surveillance (conducted as a result of us having had prior Growl/Snorting matches with Guffingford before) revealed that they were in fact conducting that which everybody condemned Glemte Hage of committing: Genocide. Men, women, children, gunned down like cattle.

We have pictorial and video evidence collected from our SpyFly swarms, however, those currently attacking Glemte Hage for doing nothing more than defending itself against overwhelming opposition, that will not stop at anything short of total annihilation of Glemte Hage and its people, discard the evidence as a sham, despite confirmation of authenticity by a neutral force.

If we could acquire confirmation from a second neutral force. We would be willing to take any and every step necessary to prove to those who refuse to see the truth that Glemte Hage has suffered enough. We could show them the sites where each atrocity took place. We could show them everything.

We wish for peace talks. We just want this to end.

No, I will not say my hands are clean in this matter. We are doing everything we can to prevent further atrocities against the Glemte Hagan populace. But so many wish to condemn Glemte Hage to oblivion for the ill-advised actions it took so long ago. We wish to prove ourselves.

Her Majesty's Government is suprised and upset that the Ratheian Government has decided to take this line. We thought that our two nations were friends, very good friends. The late Prime Minsiter, Lord Scotland spoke very highly of you, Mr Zaitsev. Her Majesty's Government, I can assure you has at its disposal, a huge arsenal of weaponary that is unrivaled, and we are willing to use it against the Wolfish Government if it does not handover the culprit. Her Majesty's Government would NEVER consider using it against the Ratheian Government, for whom we have the greatest respect and alot to owe for their help when we were savagely attacked.
Her Majesty's Government would be grateful if the Ratheian Government would advise the Wolfish Government to act responsibly, otherwise the might of Her Majesty's Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations, and her many allies in the FCS region will rise up and seek justice itself.

ooc: Okay - you do understand that my standing military is three times larger than your total population right? www.freewebs.com/wolfish.

ic:Wolifsh has, and will continue to act in the most responsibly way. Immediately following the cowardly attack upon your nation with the death of your Prime Minister, Wolfish turned over the terrorist attacker to the Rateian Government for trial and punishment.

The Wolfish Emissary has agreed to testify in court against his former aide, and the Wolfish government has revoked the aide's diplomatic immunity.

The COH government will, in due time, research the case of Glemte Hage Vs. The 'People' so to speak. We will contact you, Godular, with our opinions and plans in the matter. If you have not heard anything in three days please proceed to Telegram 'Hirgizstan' directly through the main NS site, the COH is quite busy with many engagements at the moment, thus we will press the issue at end when we can.

Considering the current Kingdom Situation:

I despise this bear-bating that this conflict has been reduced to. In terms of population size the Commonwealth of Hirgizstan is at the top of this particular food chain (Through 4 Colonies the COH has a population over 7.1 Billion), not to mention military size.

However, the true exercise of power is restraint. This situation is not helped by sabre-rattling or war-mongering. This may have been the simple answer at the beginning but now the situation has deepened and matured. What is needed now is diplomacy rather than military action. I implore the Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations to re-open talks with the Wolfish government to ensure that cables are not crossed and actions not misunderstood. I eagerly await your response.

OOC: Who said anything about armies- we have military technology that is unrivalled..so trust me, we ain't kidding, even if we are talking about manpower, Rule Britannica, our protectorate has a population of 80 million!

Royal Britannic Governor General Lord Wales, and the devolved Government of Rule Britannica wishes to express the support of the Britannic people for their mother country, The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations.
His Lordship who was appointed by Her Majesty as Governor General, would like to remind nations involved in this situation that the loss of a leader is painful and tragic event. That is why, if the Federal Government of The Kingdom of Commonwealth Nations does not get justice, we will wholeheartedly support any action, whether it be military or diplomatic, the Commonwealth Government takes.

OOC: Dude, don't come onto the forums and post as your protectorate, it can get it (and possibly your main nation) deleted. I post through 'Hirgizstan', the nation under which all the protectorates assume their 'Head of State'. So i don't post as anyone else but 'Hirgizstan'. All you need to say is that Brittanica is your protectorate and it has a pop. of 80 Million, no need to post with it.

ooc: Okay Commonwealth - have you read the stickies about not using puppets in roleplaying without the agreement of other nations involved? Clearly you are operating at least two nations in this matter. Please stop, or I'll pull out my puppets - and I'll assure you they weren't created in October.

ooc: ok

Should i set up another thread for a new Peace Conference?

ooc: yes please
