GalNet: General Snider Makes Official Statement
26 Jul 2021Rho Tefnutet
Following the GalNet article about confirmed suspicion of Advocacy, according to which PDB is used as tool to cull voices to leave Federation, New Republic released an open message to the main Federal body made by General Maite Snider."You speak a lot about constitution and Federal Accord, but fail to grasp that it is Federation, right at that moment, to violates them both in the first place. There is a reason why we do not maintain any diplomatic relations with regime of Zachary Hudson and Jerome Archer, both of whom are warmongers lacking any diplomatic capabilities. If it was untrue, Federation would not harass its own citizens: first with illegal surveillance, now with outrageous repercussions and arrests for openly stating dissatisfaction in a diplomatic way."
"New Republic of Draguan Nu will never agree to Federation harassing citizens who just want democratic discourse, facing the aggressive persecutions and arrests on basis of illegal operations maintained by Proactive Detection Bureau - which, by the way, is officially recognized as criminal organization. If you do not stop harassing people who do not want invigilation of their daily lives, there is no longer any place for further negotiations with Federation, the superpower led by terrorists who are treating simple dissatisfaction of treason to Federal Accord. The very same Federal Accord that Federation is breaking itself, using NMLA - that Federation supported itself - as excuse to abuse citizens."
"In case of Azaladshu, which was an illegal operation maintained by Federal Navy as that system has not been part of Federation, therefore not applicable for Federal Accord - should be set aside total ignorance of Zachary Hudson and his cronies - and being in direct violation of sovereign, independent space. I shall repeat it: violation of sovereign, independent space the Federation had no right to given that declaration of independence was fully legal in the face of interstellar law. New Republic shall support every single independence effort against anyone who forcefully tries to abolish democracy in favor of rigid police state. We encourage others to do the same."
"From now on, New Republic of Draguan Nu recognizes both Zachary Hudson and Jerome Archer as war criminals and enemies of the state."
It is unclear if General Snider's message shall be followed by any significant actions. However, given very poor relations during Hudson's presidency it is very likely that New Republic - and its special operations group Bloodbound Harvest - shall be involved during any independents' conflict that is aimed against Zachary Hudson's government.
