TIMIOCATO -- Alessandra Capradoci moved to assure the international community of Pacitalia's commitment to moving forward Wednesday, in her first speech as Agustinate of International Relations. She told an assemblage of ambassadors to Pacitalia and domestic political figures that forward was "[Pacitalia's] only direction of concern in the long term" and that "the coalition government [was] already working" to institute the Ampolitant committee that will oversee the Constitutional Framework on Political and Electoral Change.

"Over the next month Prime Minister Chiovitti and leading, motivated members of the public and the government will begin to lay down the foundation of our new Framework," Capradoci told the assembled. "This country's future lies with us. We are excited at what it holds, what beautiful and revolutionary ideas we can develop and what kind of system this country will use to elect its governments from now on. Massive change is coming, be assured of it. This is not just a replacement of one rivet in the bridge between the government and the people. This is a replacement of the entire structure."

Capradoci also took time to reflect on the events of the past nine months.

"Two thousand and six will be remembered by the Pacitalian people because we took terrible steps backward," she said. "We were in our darkest hour as a nation, as a people; we witnessed an assault on democracy, a vicious beating that left us and left our institutions senseless, reeling and unable to comprehend or decide on a response. Luckily for us, were we any further up our proverbial creek a paddle would not have made any difference. But we were not, and so today, here we stand."

She then apologised on behalf of the Pacitalian people and government for what had transpired.

"Now, the fog has cleared," Capradoci added. "We have reflected in our self-inflicted solitude, but we have done more than enough of that. We are deeply sorry... for the strife, the anxiety, the disappointment, the bad taste we left in the mouths of our foreign compatriots, our friends abroad. But we are ready to move on, to cooperate in a new age of Pacitalian and liberal-democratic prosperity. We want you there with us as we grow, mature out of our mistakes, and advance as a people, so that we can make two thousand and six a year to remember not just for darkness, but for the light that we created in response."

Oceanian ambassador Maxwell Newsom was among the more prominent members of the audience and gave his nod of approval to Capradoci. "She is remarkably eloquent and speaks with a fluency of diction I have not seen for many, many years. I was most impressed with her appreciation for the past, her mature reflection on Pacitalia's dark year -- a year no one would or should fancy lingering -- but moreso at the fact that she is just such a leader."

Newsom added the Foreign Office is "quite pleased", and reportedly the Citadel as well, with Chiovitti's choice for the foreign portfolio. He said that "Ms Capradoci is calm, collected, intelligent and wise. She is everything Pacitalia needs in a position of importance, and the Foreign Office looks very much forward to working with her and her delegations in future conference."
