Imperial Federal Chancellor Hank Summer wishes to address the recent surge of Fake News in the local media. While lower Tucanae and Synuefe personally don't care what propaganda some cults try to spread to keep their image alive and themselves moralized, the Imperial Federation wants to point out four important details regarding recent rumors:
1) The Otohime Union or Grand Socialist Fleet is fine and since the Dervishi fleet took over on partial family leave after the terrorist wave earlier this year. As a proper entity inside the regional cluster it is still an active force for democracy. It guarantees other local democratic forces in the systems which are considered part of the imperial muncipalities and governates re-established last July. The renewed system considers all which aren't warlords of peacetime, anarchists or support each of these as a fair representative of imperial citizenship and works alongside them. It also supports nearby young republics like Edensu it helped liberate from Boman Co and helps regional allies like the DDT-Republic. The current leader of the traditionalist party and rightful governor of Otohime, OUR dear Federal President Alberto Dervishi is in charge of the cluster and we make sure to settle all disputes between the regional governors if possible. The Dervishi fleet is fine as well.
((OOC: You may have noticed no one seriously fought you since August and all our operations aimed at wasting the lifetime of the regional anarchist collectives around Resolve prior and afterwards. We even had funny banter in Discord about this and how 2.5 people wiped the floor with you and Co. I told you, you were an accidental victim of our time waste efforts since you got it in your head to use massive manpower and allies to beat 2 people on behalf of a PMF and alliance 5 times the size of their enemy. Resolve got size and allies, they just are not very competent and know nothing about BGS.))
2) Most terrorist activities in the regions are conducted by Resolve and their mercenary and anarchist allies. Their financiers and all those that helped shield pirates in the region are under a permanent embargo and shakedown. This situation will remain as such, as adjudicated by the Anti-Piracy fleet. This foremost means the Lemon Slice Organisation in Negri under their fugitive CEO will be monitored.
((OOC: The hypocrites and wannabe democrats that are indirectly and actively responsible for killing more than they ever seeded in the region - direct democracies INCLUDED - are to be continuously punished. And no shifting parties in our RP muncipalities will NOT distract us T+P. The APF has you as the target to shield other 4D PMFs in the region. You are war-locked for another year if need be. Happy anniversary!))
3) The Dark Armada undertook several incursions in the region, together with Blackguard and other anti-socialdemocratic groups. This however was of little concern and as discussed with the representative Darkdiamo a minor disagreement. The real focus was on the Sidewinder Syndicate, Resolve, Nomad and all their other anarchist friends. To make amends between the groups, a concession was made to reinstate all local authority to our Federal President Alberto Dervishi to oversee the regional conflicts and embargoes in the meantime. If any group wants to finance or support local diplomatic parties, the Imperial Federation has no qualms as mentioned. All honorable citizens are welcome and all honorable political spectrums are supported.
((OOC: During the last 2 months (October-November) due to Irene and Theos RL focus no one fought against you in conflicts and only when I was bored I made minor BGS interference to increase time waste. It still took you guys ages to do anything and thus looks bad to claim a victory if you lost against 2 people of the Otohime branch for months since early summer Mysteron with several alies involved and Resolve and Co and still got slapped over and over. Also the moment you and Resolve dared to attack the AU of Aisling and PI you got nuked.))
4) The Imperial Federation, in manifestation under their federal members and fleets and branches which all value individuality, will continue to defend the regional systems and groups from anarchists and chaos seeds to ensure a renewed growth and prosperity of the region. We will act as a buffer force to shield the true friends of democracy and patronage as we did for years, from ToC, over the pirate wars, down to Resolve. The actions of the DA compared where inconsequential.
In the face of the recent new crisis, we even consider to establish another new humanitarian fleet to fight natural disasters, blights and catastrophies in the region. The minor nonesense of a cult which paled in effort and effect even to the anarchists of Nomad and Resolve is not considered on par. The region is fine. Any report to the opposite is pure propaganda and lacks factual evidence. We thank you for your continued support.
