A Prince Amoung Men-Shoot First and Ask Questions Later
|
OOC: I know no one gives a shit, but this speech is being made by the old Ambassador, Vladimer Zubkov, who has recently been given back his post by the President. IC: My comrades, my brothers-in-arms, my colleagues; I remember very well the brotherhood that all of us felt when we fought the war against the Madrid Pact. Those were days when we were united, across national boundaries, when we fought for the good of Europe, and not just our national interest. We won that war, comrades, but we lost the aftermath. This alliance was made to build a safer Europe, a freer Europe, a Europe where our children can glive a better life than any generation before them. We came together across ideologies and political boundaries towards this goal, and we have failed at it. In the aftermath of that great war, which left so many lives devastated, we did not use the pact to promote peace, or brotherhood, or anything positive at all. In the aftermath of the war, we used the treaty as a cudgel to further our own interest. We intimidated smaller nations and simply accumulated wealth and power for ourselves. Meanwhile, we have let so much happen that is contrary to our interest. We have let the WMD hijack our communications and we didn't bat an eyelash. We have let the WMD establish a foothold in our continent. We have failed to reach out to the Holy Roman Empire or the Empire of the Romans, the former of which we have allowed the WMD to disember, the latter of which we have simply rejected from the European community. We have allowed Catholic Europe to fall into the WMD's lap. We have allowed the Kingdom of Spain to fall apart. We have allowed war, poverty, and chaos to continue to exist on this continent. This is the ___ century, and Europe is still not free? I don't believe that there is a God, but if there is, he ought to damn us all to hell for what we have allowed. We would deserve every moment of that eternal suffering. However, there is a way to redeem ourselves. The World Military Dominion has violated the neutrality of the Amish. Unprovoked. This is completely unacceptable, and the World Military Dominion needs to know that Europe regards it as such. We must respond. The time for words is past. The time for action is now. I have here a letter of resignation signed by my President. If the Treaty of Konigsberg does not immediately respond to this threat, I will have no choice but to submit it. Comrades, for the sake of our continent, for the sake of our children, and for the sake of our world, I urge a response. Let us not be known as the generation of appeasers. Comrade Vladimer Zubkov Ambassador to the Treaty of Konigsberg for Quaon |

Blackmail is not the action of a friend, but your point is well taken. However, Germany would ask that allied troops begin massing on its western and southern borders prior to any action being taken. - Hans Grobel Treaty Representative |

Kasnyia finds itself ashamed for not being more visibly proactive, but notes that we have been trying to establish a line of intelligence on the enemy, which is to come soon to full operation. What little standing forces we have shall be moved into Cologne to defend form an invasion from the south that shall surely come. The Imperial Navy shall start a logistics line into Germany from Scandanavia to keep our forces supplied. Any enemy that reaches the range of our guns shall be gravely punished. Her Imperial Majesty is ready to stand with you. - Lord Erich Kolfuss, Ambassador to the ToK |

Already the Dominion has invaded Menhadien lands. Already Menhadien people have died at the hands of the Dominion. We must remove the Dominion from Europe, the last Bastion of Freedom in the world. -General Hogan |

The United States of Mircania, as ToK observer, asks for a solution to be found. We gave 2 weeks to marslavan troops in our territory to go back to their lands but obviously the dominion will not retreat if we don't attack them and defeat them. We are using all necessary countermeasures and precautions to protect our land against marslavan forces but we need allies and we know all of you share our opinion. |

We must be quick but also cautious. The Dominion has a record for getting the upper hand early in their fights. We must be quick, but we must not be hasty, lest they find a hole in our plans and thrash us. I have been given authority by both Her Imperial Majesty the Dowager Empress and His Imperial Excellency, Prince Karschburg to say to you now that Kasnyia is ready to fight with what little we have. |

Although Mircania is not a member of this treaty organization, Germany feels obligated to defend her, in part to make amends for prior quarrels. Germany will fight if Marslava does not withdraw. |
