PRIME ADMINISTRATOR OF OUTER EARTH INITIATIVES MARINA AL-ANSHORI LAUNCHES THE TRINITY PROGRAM, JUMPSTARTING PRIVATE SPACE COMPANIES IN INDONESIA
At a press conference earlier today, Prime Administrator of Outer Earth Initiatives and ISA Administrator Marina al-Anshori unveiled and launched the Trinity Program, which aims to jumpstart private spaceflight companies in Indonesia. The Trinity Program will assist small spaceflight companies such as Hope Space Technologies (Hope Space), Telkom Aeronautics (spaceflight division of Telkom Systems Indonesia), OneSpace, and Reach Aeronautics with an estimated $765 million USD for all the listed companies. Hope Space specializes in robotics technology and satellite development, Telkom Aeronautics on satellite and small launcher development, with OneSpace and Reach Aeronautics on medium and large launcher development. Each company will receive $191,250,000 ($191 million) USD as a kickstarter fund, and all companies will sign a space technology development agreement with the Indonesian Space Administration (ISA). The Trinity Program is the ISA's planned equivalent to a Commercial Crew program, and hopes to launch crew into orbit by 2035. The companies will be working with the ISA and her French and Japanese partners to develop Indonesia's orbital launch vehicle, named Harmoni. Reach Aeronautics and Hope Space Technologies have already begun construction of the Raih Bintang (Reach for the Stars) Space Complex, which plans to be Indonesia's first private spaceport. The ISA has also placed majority of its support behind the Raih Bintang project, because of Reach Aeronautics' successful engine test in 2022, and Hope Space's successful rover test. The ISA plans to unveil a new program with Reach Aeronautics and Hope Space within the month.

Philippines Eyes Space Collaboration with Indonesia
The Philippine government has taken note of the space developments in Indonesia and wishes to start a collaboration project between the two. Research has been ongoing lately on the new Santa Elena habitation module capable of hosting 2 people.
Plans to build a joint space station with Indonesia and even build a Filipino module that will connect to the ISS are under consideration for 2027 and 2032 respectively. In the meantime, the Philippines is beginning it’s first forays into space exploration with the Ayala Corporation officially confirming it's new space division, Ayala Space.
Additionally, the Philippines is hoping to be the first country in the world to launch a child under the age of 13 into space. It is expected that next month, the selection process for the first kid in space will begin.
The first major planned collaboration projects with Indonesia will be mainly launching full-sized satellites into orbit for purposes such as communications, imagery, and exploration.
This is reflected in the fact that the new January 2025 budget increased the Philippine Space Agency's budget to ₱200 billion.

| MECO ELECTIONS COMING IS A TEST FOR IRANIAN POLITICAL SCENE |
January, 2024
| The upcoming elections for the MECO House of Equality and Parliament in February, is the first major test for Iranian political scene before next year Iranian Parliament elections. With People's Voice Alliance and Purity and Light Movement emerging, the fall of Liberation and Freedom Movement, growth of Zoroastrian Centre and Islamic Democrats and the war for first place between Left United and Iranian Unification Movement, the elections might prove a surprise.
The most recent polls for House of Equality and Parliament suggest that LEFT UNITED will gain 28.3%, IRANIAN UNFICIATION MOVEMENT will gain 27.3%, PEOPLE'S VOICE ALLIANCE will gain 16.2%, PURITY AND LIGHT MOVEMENT will gain 14.2%, ZOROASTRIAN CENTRE will gain 7.2%, ISLAMIC DEMOCRATS will gain 5.1% and ETHNIC UNITY LIST will gain 1.7%. Iran has 30 Seats in the House of Equality, which would mean that LU would gain 8 Seats, IUM would gain 8 Seats, PVA would gain 5 Seats, PLM would gain 4 Seats, ZC would gain 2 Seats, ID would gain 2 Seats and EUL would gain 1 Seat. In the Parliament, Iran holds 60 Seats which would mean that LU would gain 17 Seats, IUM would gain 16 Seats, PVA would gain 10 Seats, PLM would gain 9 Seats, ZC would gain 4 Seats, ID would gain 3 Seats and EUL would gain 1 Seat.
If the polls come true, then Left United has a lead of 1% over Iranian Unification Movement which is a major warning signal to IUM and Nouri that the tide might be changing. With Hesiana Leira as the leader of Left United again, LU has been seeing a major revamp in it's media presence and with larger MECO integrity, bigger focus on stability and healthcare of MECO people, it seems that LU might win. IUM, however, has bettered it's scores, with Nouri seeing a rise in public support for the first time since November of 2022.
Another interesting development is the creation of the Ethnic Unity List by Azerbaijani Progressive Party, Arab Youth Organisation, Christian Democratic Alliance and the Kurdish National Party. In the last MECO elections, alone, none of them made it and even in recent polling only two of them barely manage to pass the 1% barrier. With APP representing Azerbaijani communities, AYO the Persian Gulf Arabs, CDA the Christian and European communities and KNP the Kurds, the EUL manages to nearly get 2% in polls which would guarantee them at least 1 seat in both houses and might prove a way to get bigger representation in the Iranian Parliament next year.
The new parties, the radical-left People's Voice Alliance and the autocratic theocratic Purity and Light Movement have made major gains in the polls. The PVA's appearance on the MECO political scene could cause a shake, as it would it be the first party to come under the Communist MECO Party and gain representation since the Ba'athists parties of 2016. If they pass the 15% threshhold in the MECO elections, they might sweep themselves into Iranian Parliament next year and cause a major shockwave for the region. PLM, however, is a heavily anti-MECO, pro-Imperialist party and their 14% support in the polls for many experts is worrying. If they manage to pass the 10% threshhold, then MECO might see real opposition within it's bodies, and next year Iran might see the rise of a party it had never seen before on it's democratic scene. |

INDONESIAN SPACE ADMINISTRATION: ASIA REACHES FOR THE STARS
The past month has been extremely exciting for the Indonesian space program, and Asian space developments in general. The Indonesian Space Administration and JAXA have begun development on the Unity crewed launch vehicle, which will use a Soyuz-based capsule design called Persatuan which will be launched atop a Japanese HII-A launch vehicle. JAXA and the ISA aspires to launch crew into Low Earth Orbit by 2026-2027 at the earliest. Indonesia and Japan are currently in talks with the Russian space agency Roscosmos to train Indonesian and Japanese astronauts at the renowned Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, which is being leased by Roscosmos. The new crewed space initiative was also followed by the possibility of a joint space station run by JAXA, with Indonesian modules. Indonesia is also planning to discuss a Lunar program with nations such as Japan, La Plata, and the IPDEC member states.
In response to Crazybloxian Empire (Philippines)'s request for collaboration in space exploration, the Indonesian Space Administration released a memorandum expressing Indonesia's 'extreme enthusiasm' to collaborate with the Philippine Space Agency. The ISA has stated that the Philippines is welcome to collaborate with Indonesia on satellite launches, and if the Japanese permit, on a possible joint space station between Indonesia and Japan, and even crewed launches from Tanegashima. The Indonesian government has invited Philippine representatives to Jakarta to discuss future space collaborations. The ISA is also willing to collaborate on the Philippines' First Child in Space program, but expresses worry regarding the risks a child would be placed in to do such an endeavor. The Indonesian government has also invited Ayala Space to join the Trinity Program, a jumpstarter initiative to support private space companies. Indonesia and her government look forward to future collaborations with the Philippines, one of Indonesia's closest partners.
The Indonesian Space Administration has also expressed great interest in collaborating with Nevbrejnovitz (La Plata) in space initiatives, with the ISA showing interest in jointly developing a larger version of La Plata's Adventura 1 reusable launch vehicle. Satellite and crewed orbital ventures are also up for discussion, with the ISA also considering a joint space station. If La Plata allows, the Indonesian government invites Platino space representatives to Jakarta to discuss the possibility of collaboration.

| RUSSIA AND JAPAN IN AGREEMENT OVER SAKHALIN-HOKKAIDO BRIDGE
For over two decades, there had been great efforts on constructing a physical link between Sakhalin and Hokkaido. Petrov, Medvedev, and Putin had all sought such a link, and had all failed due to severely strained relations, and lack of commitment. Since the election of President Ivchenko, Artem Tsoy the Chairman of the Committee for Far Eastern and Arctic Development had been in deep talks with Japanese officials hashing out fine details of what would become a historic ₽5.3 trillion agreement to jointly construct the Sakhalin-Hokkaido Bridge. The bridge will be the first step to an eventual uninterrupted Eurasian rail corridor, and will also deepen the economic relationship between Russia and Japan. Creating new opportunities through its construction and from the potential economic benefits, the bridge will also seek to stim migration from Sakhalin and attract thousands of Russians seeking new opportunities in the Far East. As Phase One in Russia’s overall development goals for the Far East, the announcement of its construction gives Ivchenko the necessary political support to push ahead with the Nevelskoy Strait link, and the pricey Trans-Siberian high speed rail.

INDO-PACIFIC DEFENSE AND ECONOMIC COLLECTIVE (IPDEC) FORMS INDO-PACIFIC SPACE COMMISSION TO OVERSEE ASIAN JOINT SPACE INITIATIVES
Following a vote between member states, the Indo-Pacific Defense and Economic Collective (IPDEC) formed the Indo-Pacific Space Commission to oversee Asian joint space initiatives and will be the IPDEC's space exploration arm. The IPSC will be based at the Borneo Space Center in South Borneo, with its main launch site being the same location. The IPSC will also establish offices in Singapore. The IPSC has a starting budget of $725 million USD, with all funds being directed towards the establishment of the IPSC infrastructure, logistics, and funding. All expenditure required for the construction of the headquarters and IPSC facilities at the BSC will be shouldered by the Indonesian government. The IPSC will be led by a committee of experts from Bangladesh, the Philippines, Indonesia, and India temporarily until an administration is sworn in by the IPDEC. The long-term goal of the IPSC is to land humans on the Lunar surface by 2040, with a short term goal of establishing the Indo-Pacific Satellite Positioning, Intelligence, Reconnaissance, and Electronic Communications System (INSPIRE) as an Asian equivalent of GPS. The Indo-Pacific Space Commission hopes to launch research and sounding rockets by the end of the year.

VTH REPUBLIC | PARIS, 2024
| HELM OF SÈCURITÈ, MINISTÈRE DES FORCES ARMÉES - | Naval Group has launched the first of 8 planned Murat class guided missile destroyers. The new class of destroyers is part of the French Navy's plan to build an entirely new and modernized navy, capable of taking on future threats by the year 2030. The Murat class is built using a primarily stealth configuration and stealth technology to minimize radar signatures. In fact one could easily slip into the Persian Gulf undetected by radar however it would most likely still be seen by other vessels in the highly trafficked waters. The first ship of the class, FNS Murat was launched from Toulon on Friday at 08:30 following a commissioning ceremony attended by President Emmanuel Macron. The FNS Murat is headed to link up with other vessels in the North Atlantic Fleet. The remaining 7 ships of the class remain under construction, receiving their final touches and undergoing their last sea trials before commissioning. While initial plans only call for 8 Murat class destroyers, Naval Group may be contracted to construct more in the future. |

FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF CENTRAL AMERICA / REPÚBLICA FEDERAL DE CENTROAMÉRICA
JANUARY 2024
https://youtu.be/sqndDJyIJb4
The Federal Republic of Central America, first established in 1823 as a result of independence from the Empire of Mexico has endured over two centuries of hardships and especially in its early history civil strife. It has managed to survive through a mixture of determination from its peoples and foreign assistance from the United States, especially in the later years when Paramerican corporate and economic interests in the region grew and there became a need to maintain stability in the FRCA. Backed in modern times by a relatively modern armed forces, which has existed as such due to extensive and debatably corrupt relations with the US Arms Industry, it is able to combat both internal instability and notably the cartels to some degree of success. Its relationship with the Cartels continues to be one that is confusing to most however, as some Cartels are kept at an arms length and allowed to transit goods through the country whereas others are stamped out with intense priority. It is as a result of the extreme problems caused by Cartels in the latter half of the 20th century that the Central American Intelligence Agency (CAIA) was established to function in close cooperation with the Paramerican CIA, which has helped them develop better strategies and tactics to use against those foes.
The FRCA never lost its intense corporate influences, however those influences shifted somewhat from its original corporate owners. The Standard Fruit Company (which split from from the US Dole Food Company upon its name change in 1991), United Fruit Company (which split from US United Brands Company in 1970) and the Cuyamel Fruit Company which resisted a takeover from The Standard Fruit Company in 1929. The three Companies are still the largest owners of land (and largest fruit producers) in the FRCA by square kilometers, however this ownership has been in a very slow decline since 1980 as other monopolies started to exploit the Nation in different areas of the economy. Other corporations had started to take over parts of the Economy sooner however the blockade of Cuba by Paramerica gave the fruit sector a much needed influx of demand as replacements for fruit grown on Cuba became a reality.
Other large scale and very influential Companies include the United Mineral Corporation (exploitation of minerals), Exploration Holdings Company (exploitation of minerals), Cardenal Timber Holdings (exploitation of timber and timber related products), Solis Residential Development (development of residential projects, owner related to Hilda Solis, U.S Congresswoman), T&P (development of residential and commercial holdings) & Universal Logistics (cargo shipping and infrastructure). Countless other small corporations and companies exist, mainly influenced or semi-owned by the already mentioned large companies.
With such intense influence of Corporations over the Government, Central America has persisted as the perfect example of a Banana republic (A Government ran by Corporations for their own gain). Its Military, kept loyal with generous donations, housing and the bonificación anual (annual bonus) which consists of 3,000 USD per year. Not sounding very generous for those not living in the Country, when compared to the minimum monthly wage of 500 USD it is considered an answer to the financial prayers of soldiers who usually support large families. As a result the Military class has developed into its very own demographic and income group, loyal to the Corporations and by extension the Government after over a century of being courted by those companies.
The FRCA has done everything in its power to avoid opening up the Economy in a free trade fashion, having refused to sign the GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) due to its policy of maintaining tariffs to raise capital rather than taxation, most of which would have to be paid by the rich and corporate classes. This reliance on Tariffs has in part also allowed it to somewhat placate the lower classes, as taxation on their incomes is only raised on the regional level. As a result of this the FRCA is not even a full member of the World Trade Organization, being one of the few non-members to the organization. Instead Centroamérica has focused on developing exclusive trade relationships with mainly western Nations (as larger income levels guarantee larger incomes for the Companies) and naturally expanding its long standing deals and relationships with the United States which has remained its largest trading partner.

The origins of the JNA can be found in the Yugoslav Partisan units of World War II. As a part of the Resistance during World War II People's Liberation War of Yugoslavia, the People's Liberation Army of Yugoslavia (NOVJ), a predecessor of JNA, was formed on 22 December 1941 in the town of Rudo in Bosnia and Herzegovina with the establishment of the 1st Proletarian Brigade. After the liberation of the country from the Axis Powers occupation, that date was officially celebrated as the Day of the Army in the SFR Yugoslavia.

ARAB NATIONAL ARMED FORCES BEGINS MISSILE ACQUISITIONS/DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
Joint Command Headquarters, Baghdad, AFS
______
In a press conference at the Joint Command Headquarters in Baghdad, the ANAF announced the beginning of a missile program intended to expand Arab military capability. Newly appointed Defense Minister, Khaled al-Obaidi, said the program will be the next step towards cultivating a robust military defense for the Arab States. The endeavor will create a new branch- the Strategic Missile Force, and create new Army rocket units. It comes as a part of the first annual budget passed by the Arab National Congress, which included larger spending for the military. Though criticized, the larger spending is geared towards integration and tackling the increased security concerns following unification.
The new Strategic Missile Force will have two roles: administering the national air defense apparatus, and commanding it's offensive ballistic missile force. The Persian Angel Missile Defense System has previously been administered by the Air Force, but its command and upkeep will be transferred to the SMF now. The SMF will also be acquiring new offensive ballistic missiles. It will be transferring personnel from both the Air Force and Army, and assisting both groups in air defense. Defense officials expect that branch will be established and operational within the next year. Over the next year, they will be acquiring 100 Queen Esmat-1 SRBMs from Iran. They has also acquired the rights to produce the Qiam-1 SRBM domestically, based on the Soviet Scud-C. The missiles have a range of 1,000km and 800km respectively. Development has begun on a tactical ballistic missile as well, which will be a modernization and upgrade of the Scud-B. The missile will have an anticipated range of 500km. Accompanying this inventory will be the construction of new bases and launch facilities for the missiles. The bases will be equipped with the vehicles necessary for transport and launch from anywhere in the country. The purchase from Iran totaled 5 Billion dollars, with 5 billion more spending spent on establishing costs and the silo systems.
Defense Minister al-Obaidi described the SMF and missile acquisition programs as integral to the future of the Arab States: ”It is no secret that the Middle East can and has been a volatile region. Organizations like MECO and the Arab League are integral to ensuring stability, as is our proud unification. But ensuring that stability means being able to protect ourselves from those who would wish to exploit us in a weakened state. To that end, it is non-negotiable that the Arab States acquire a strong and modern military to secure the national defense. The modern military landscape is always changing and we must remain at the upper limit of military technology and capability. The Strategic Missile Force represents that upper limit. The Persian Angel system is the shield of the Arab States and the SMF will be her sword.”
Congressional critics derided the program for its expense and very existence. One Congressmen described the defense bill funding the program as “a 10 Billion dollar diplomatic mistake.” For some, it harkens back to the baathist days of Saddam and the UAR. For others it’s an entirely redundant program considering Baghdad’s closest ally, Iran, has a significant ballistic arsenal of their own. General Talib Shaghati has been appointed as the first Chief of Staff of the Strategic Missile Forces. Shaghati is a career air defense specialist, having been trained by the Soviets and served for decades in the armed forces of Iraq and varius Arab unions.
Total Purchases:
Tactical Ballistic Missile: Domestic design [In Development], 500km Range: Amount TBA
Short-Range Ballistic Missile: Qiam-1 [Licensed], 800km Range, 50 to be built domestically
Short-Range Ballistic Missile: Queen Esmat-1 1,000km Range, 100 purchased from Iran
