TheShammySocialist Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 [center][b][size="6"]Interim Ruling Council Official Statement[/size][/b] [IMG]http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa325/VictorDeltaRomeo/200px-Coat_of_arms_of_Rhodesiasvg.png[/IMG][/center] "The Greater Rhodesia Interim Ruling Council, acting upon recent information from public support for independence, hereby declares the existence of the State of [b]GREATER RHODESIA[/b], hereby requesting independence from the fair hands of Arctica. While Arctica has proven to be a capable protector of our interests, and proven itself to be an even hand in ruling our territory, we feel that this recent populist movement should not be ignored. Therefore we submit a pledge to the Arctican State to allow for the formation of the independent government of Rhodesia, in turn allowing for democratic elections for our country. We submit this declaration of existence in good faith and peace, wishing only the best for our former protectors, and only reacting to the will of the people. In the interests of the Interim Ruling Council, the Council declares [b]ROBERT KHAMA[/b] as the interim president of Greater Rhodesia, while its political affairs are sorted through." [i]Signed, Greater Rhodesia Interim Ruling Council[/i] [center][IMG]http://i1192.photobucket.com/albums/aa325/VictorDeltaRomeo/Arthur-Mutambara.jpg[/IMG] [i]The Honorable Robert Khama, Interim President of Greater Rhodesia.[/i][/center] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheShammySocialist Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) [quote name='Vedran' timestamp='1317676140' post='2814780'] The Union of Arctica recognizes the desire of the Rhodesian people for independence, and further recognizes the sovereignty of the interim government on a provisional basis. Full recognition will be granted upon the conclusion of free and fair elections, which several non-governmental organizations within Arctica have requested permission to send observers to. [/quote] "These observers will be offered access to the Rhodesian general elections, to allow for third-party observation and confirmation of free and fair elections. While we cannot guarantee that these observers will be able to see [i]every[/i] ballot or [i]every[/i] election station, as such a process would be exhausting and entirely impossible without sufficient manpower to such an election commission, we believe these organizations will verify that democracy is alive and well in Rhodesia." [i]Rhodesian Interim Ruling Council[/i] --- "We thank the nations of the world for their diplomatic recognition, we will be shortly announcing the results of our general election, which is currently under organization. After a government is elected and internal affairs are arranged, we will be looking to see to our external affairs. As of right now, however, it is in our best interest to see to the needs of our people and ensure that our country is internally and politically stable before venturing abroad."

TheShammySocialist Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 (edited) [b]Rhodesian Government Press Release[/b] "With the conclusion of our first general election, Greater Rhodesia hereby declares itself a parliamentary republic, with [b]ROBERT KHAMA[/b] as the first Prime Minister of Greater Rhodesia. A ruling government has been formed, with the Rhodesian National Union Party as the minority ruling party, in conjunction with a coalition with the Namibian Liberal Front. Although the South African Socialist Party is claiming abstain on any further legislation, pending a partial judicial review of the general election, we can claim that this first election was a victory for all who live in Greater Rhodesia, with representation granted to all! We therefore declare ourselves free of any protected status granted to us by Arctica, and will exercise our sovereign right to conduct both foreign and internal affairs freely."
