Executive Minister Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 We would like to bring the recent spate of rioting in Manticore. The Principality has unilaterally began a transaction of food and other supplies at extremely deflated prices with the Manticore government as an immediate relief effort, but of course more most be done. Perhaps the Principality could head an AUP initiative to the riot stricken Manticore? It also seems to be in need of additional security forces to help quell the infighting.

VigilantWatcher Posted February 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 The Tanzania Federation will also ship aid into Manticore to meet the growing crisis. We also support Aeon's suggestion of an AUP Initiative to Manticore. We are willing to provide forces to this initiative if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Zephyr Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 We could have security forces moving into Manticore, if they desire of course, on a very short timescale. We would like to help in quelling these riots as quickly as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Enema Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 (edited) [b]Firebase Andy[/b] The base is now 75 percent complete. Living quarters, water purification, power production, air defense systems, a security zone, and several runways with hangars and revetments are close to completion. The full time Legion presence has been fully deployed with a floating reserve of a full armored division ready and waiting at the docks for deployment. [b]Tribal Autonomy Zone[/b] "Notice to fellow members of the African Unity Pact. There has been no real word from this area for quite some time. Therefore to ensure that the place is free from outside exploitation and social tampering a small force of Legionnaires has been put in place to watch over it. Medical services and supplies will be made available through this task force which Legion has named, "Task Force Watchmen". This is an action done within the confines of the African Unity Pact and while all members of the Pact are free to assist, it is suggested that the smallest possible footprint on the ground be placed in order to not tamper with the social evolution of the groups within the zone. ooc: I'm going to hold onto Sand's lands for about a month. If he doesn't come back we'll wrap them into Skarzul or whatnot. Please don't flood the area with men. I'm trying to keep the smallest possible force in the area to not mess with his storyline if he wanders back. [b]Bosaso AUP Base[/b] Bosaso AUP Base is near 50 percent completion. Extensive work is needed in finishing the runways needed for the larger proposed Aeonic transports. Likewise, a purpose built harbor will be needed for fleet units that will be positioned there as part of the AUP presence.

VigilantWatcher Posted March 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 The Tanzania Federation is currently researching new radar technologies which are ongoing. We would like to share the technology with the other members once we have managed to get it up and running. What is the consensus on this idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel James Posted March 3, 2012 Report Share Posted March 3, 2012 Due to the lack of a formidable radar system, I would be overjoyed to introduce this to my nation. I hope the other AUP nations will see your generous offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Enema Posted March 4, 2012 Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 [b]Firebase Bosaso[/b] Is now 75 percent complete, it currently houses a brigade of Legionnaires who have been formed into the 901st Brigade. The 901st consists of engineers, logistics experts, technicians, and other personnel needed to keep the base running at full trim. [b]Special Report of Levantia[/b] Legion efforts are ongoing to bring relief supplies directly to the Levantian people. There are fears that the significant population of Vicadilians brought into Levantia will cause a long term destabilizing effect on the region. Tentative planning is being made to return these citizens to Lunar Republic control should it be deemed necessary for local stability. It is a shame that these refugees are being shuffled around like cattle, but unfortunately for them they should have considered the ramifications of relocating to a nation such as Levantia wher the signs of Levantia being unstable are and were there for the entire world to see. It is felt that returning these refugees to the Lunar Republic's control is in the best interest as the Lunar Republic has proven to be the most stable element in keeping the overly aggressive and opportunistic Vicidalian regimes under some semblance of control. Turning them over the existing regime in North America seems a poor choice given they so freely allowed their own citizens to depart to the shores of Levantia in the first place despite the earlier mentioned signs of instability and danger. As of now nearly the entire Legion Naval Fleet is present and accounted for off the Coast of Levantia and will stay there until otherwise directed. [b]Fire Base Opie[/b] Is now 100 percent complete. There is housing, basing, and supplies for the deployment of nearly 100,000 men for a duration of 30 days. A heavy armored division is afloat on Legion RORO ships and are currently being prepared for operations in Levantia should it be considered needed. [b]Canadian War[/b] Legion losses from the initial onslaught of fighting consisted of nearly 32 percent of the Legion's Air Arm. Other losses from counter-attacks were heavy but these too have since been replaced. These losses have been made good. All Legion assets have been withdrawn from the area of operations and further operations are being left for local governments at this time as Legion has no further interest in pursuing a war against Canada. Legion Force as of now are fully pulled out of the AUP Protectorate that neighbors Atlantis and will not be playing a major role in the garrisoning of this area. Legion forces are already highly active in Aremor, West Africa, and Levantia. Legion feels that it is taking a disproportionate role in safeguarding the security of Africa and will be drawing down it's forces in response to internal demands that fellow African nations begin doing their part to secure the continent. [b]West African Protectorate Report[/b] All is quiet at this time. Nearly all former Vicadilian supporters have either returned to their former lives or been removed from being a threat via various means. Educational programs to provide West Africa with a stable middle class of highly qualified technicians to support an advanced infrastructure are bearing a considerable amount of fruit. Nearly all local companies involving cellular services, medical services, and other modern services are fully locally staffed. What is more pleasing is the growing administration of the West African Protectorate. Legion Administrators have been reduced from a fully active role to a supporting advisory role. Local elections are being encouraged for the development of municipal governments and a Legion Special Forces Group is hard at work training a full Division of native troops to serve as the future seed of the area's military. Advanced officer training and other technical training is taking place at various Legion Military Academies. Work is being done to create the very same infrastructure for the training of military, police, and emergency services personnel within the Protectorate. However, the training of the instructors will prove to be a time consuming project, but it will be done. [b]Formal Notice[/b] There is a future vote on the National Ballot that calls for Legion's removal from the AUP. How that vote proceeds will determine the future of Legion's participation. Consider this fair notice by Legion's government that there is a possibility that Legion will be withdrawing from the Treaty out of respect for the results of a national ballot.

Executive Minister Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Corrinne Teguse would address several issues today, as part of a larger agenda for furthering African security and brotherhood between its states, as well as social and economic co-operation across the continent. First and foremost, the Principality would forward a motion to investigate the Imperium of Imazighen. It has been some time since word was heard from the North African state, and Teguse would be clear in addressing the council that it was the AUP's responsibility to ensure the safety of the North African people and stability of the Imazighen government. Should such a motion be accepted by other members, the Principality would pledge two divisions worth of security to administer humanitarian and administrative duties until the North Africans could rally together and either recreate the Imperial government or engage in talks for forming a new, sovereign entity. Second on the agenda, the Principality would announce its intentions to throw its weight behind the Tanzanian initiative to pursue an AUP military research program in order to improve African proficiency and ensure operational success against any potential threat to African peace and stability. The combined Levantian/Atlantic/PRA project for a new fighter programme would also be given the Principality's blessings and a pledge of the best and brightest MILitary Aviation Complex (MILAC), Nascent Military Industries (NMI) and National Defense Industries Incorporated (NDII) would have to offer in terms of state-level military technology expertise. Thirdly, the Principality would formally thank the Legionnaire government for being the driving and deciding factor that helped create the AUP itself. The African Legion has acted immensely for the benefit of the continent as a whole, moving disproportionate amounts of men, materiel and willpower when compared to other AUP signatories. Should the Legion choose to remain within the AUP, it would be a no-brainer that it would be welcomed with open arms. The Principality would pledge itself towards a program of emulating the Legion's unprecedented level of self-sacrifice and hard work. In a final, similar vein, the Principality would announce its plans to further the offensive against the Canadian colonies in the Atlantic, restoring African rule to what is decidedly under the African sphere of influence. With a renewed vigor the AUP will move to secure Africa's future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel James Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 (edited) [b]Closed to AUP Members[/b] King Mandella would also like to applaud Legion of its hard work done for the continent. he also shares Aeon's concern with the Canadian islands off the coast of Africa, and will be willing to send soldiers and machinery to help capture the islands as well. As for the fighter, King Mandella has noticed that since the specs had been sent to the various leaders, there hasn't been much criticism and improvement as he had hoped. King Mandella would like the various nations of Africa to come together and build a uniform air force fighter and bomber to protect many interests. Should Africa go to war together, having different types of fighters would prove more of a liability than helpful to the more advanced air forces.

We would appreciate additional assistance from fellow AUP members in this process. *Movements* 50,000 PRA soldiers and 400 BTRs called up from the reserve forces to secure key areas within Imazighen territory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Enema Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 [b]Legion[/b] "Legion is finding it distressing at some of the larger deployments being made to various parts of Africa by Union members in the name of stability. Legion forces never mass more than a few thousand in country at any one time in Aremor and West Africa. Everything is positioned well away in enclosed AUP controlled bases in the form of Firebase Andy and Opie. Anything larger impedes the social and cultural evolution of a nation. None of the recent government collapses have shown any signs of being violent and it is worrisome that such large bodies of men are being sent in without a real need for them. At this time Legion requests from its fellow AUP members a timetable for the reduction of forces in the various African Protectorates and a strong commitment to getting behind the promotion of self-rule within the protectorates."

VigilantWatcher Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 In response to Legion's concerns, the Tanzania Federation will make a commitment to draw down the strength of its forces in the Protectorate neighbouring Atlantis from the Thirty Six Thousand strong force currently there to a force of four thousand over the next few weeks as the security situation is stable enough. The reason we give for such a large deployment is a troop surge to show the citizens that we take their security seriously, with plans to maintain a main base in the city of Bangui and do regular patrols as normal. This plan we will be implementing immediately with the withdrawal of the biggest and quicker to move unit, the 8th "Rwanda" Republican Guard Division beginning now.

For example, the Imperial Imazighen has substantial civilian and military infrastructure, as well as a larger surface area. AUP forces are being sent for rudimentary analysis of all civilian amenities to ensure their working conditions - there is just so much to check, is all. After all census and maintenance assessments have been made, it would be an imperative for our forces to draw down, until protectorate governments are re-established, or new governments are formed anew."

Captain Enema Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) "Indeed, however, this isn't what happened so let's not try to convince ourselves otherwise. The People's Republic sent in an occupation force much like they did in North Africa. Promises were made to reduce the size of that force but there has been no real noticeable follow up on their North African venture. The same occupation of Sud Italia also has thousands of troops from Aeon and Athens as well. No status reports of any sort have been made by any of the associated powers and neither has there been any effort to create an AUP stronghold in the former Sud Italia Lands from which to conduct operations out of. Those operations being transparent to the rest of the AUP, much like the ones being conducted in the West African protectorate that are reported upon on a regular basis. As of now Legion has no real clear picture into the efforts in the former Sud Italia's territory, which makes us extremely hesitant about this latest move on the part of the PRA. Which is why Legion really doesn't give a damn why they did it, because the best of intentions is a pretty bad road to go down. The only thing we want is a firm commitment to a draw down of forces and a timetable for that draw down. Tanzania is commended for it's commitment to African self-rule and is further encouraged to embark on a long term program of implementing local government structures that will allow the further reduction of forces from 4000 to even a smaller number."

While we are willing to comply to your requests, we would have preferred for this issue to have been actually voiced to us before any accusations were stated.

Kevin Kingswell Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 We in the Royal Kingdom of Manticore feel that the number of soldiers being sent to Sao Tome and Principe are a little excessive, we only have a small number of soldiers on the ground and already they seem to have proven to be enough to maintain security. Unlike most cases of government collapse the islands have not fallen into anarchy and with a small number of soldiers stationed on the islands they and the local security forces should be able to look after the people until they form their own government.

Executive Minister Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 "The Canadian government staged numerous strategic surface to air missiles, anti-ship cruise missiles, artillery and SHORAD defenses. The troop volumes being sent are to ensure that these potentially lethal weapons do not end up in the hands of terrorists such as the Blackhand, or are used against our own forces. Surely Manticore has no issue with this? Other pact signatories would have much to lose if those weapons were loosed upon the region."

Kevin Kingswell Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 "It is highly doubtful that any terrorist group would be able to steal or subvert such weapons with the island's security forces in charge of them. However, if you and the other AUP members do indeed feel threatened by these weapons then I suggest that we all work on dismantling and removing these weapons from the islands. After all their war with us is over and they will no longer require such defenses." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
