Justinian the Mighty Posted May 13, 2009 Report Share Posted May 13, 2009 After a few last minute adjustments Premier Medvedev is finally able to present the Slavorussian people with their new government. Premier Medvedev’s spokesperson told reporters the reason for delay was that there had been some difficulty getting Parliament to approve of several of the original appointees, and the Prime Minister forced to find replacements. With his new government in place Premier Medvedev believes he’s ready for his first international press conference.

There were some bumps in the road, but as I said, the road to recovery will not be easy. I’m very confident that with this fine group of people at my side I will be able to easily reach the goals I set for my government during my election campaign. Hopefully now the Slavorussian people can move forward. Though we Slavorussians may be divided by occupation borders, we are united in spirit and cause. I have instructed the Foreign Ministry to open a line of communication between Moscow and the Nordic Confederacy. Slavorussians want their country united, and we hope strong diplomacy will make that happen. We can forgive the actions of the past if you can too, and strive to build a true peace in Europe. The ball is now in your court gentlemen. Now ladies and gentlemen of the international press, I'll take any questions you may have.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
