Zealenskiya

The Soy Milk Crisis

Today, the Zealenskiyan government declared a state of emergency as the nation is facing a dire crisis over the devastating shortage of soy milk that has struck the country, resulting in widespread rioting and looting. This unexpected turn of events has resulted in tragic consequences, with a rising death toll and severe public transport route disruptions across the nation.

Zealenskiya is a nation known for its strong reliance on soy milk as a staple beverage. The cause of the soy milk shortage can be attributed to a catastrophic combination of factors. Zealenskiya traditionally relies heavily on soybeans for both domestic consumption and export, contributing significantly to the country's economy. However, an unprecedented heatwave and prolonged drought during the past year has decimated the nation's soybean crops, leading to a sharp decline in production.

Agricultural experts have highlighted that the extreme weather conditions experienced throughout the country were exacerbated by the effects of climate change. The scorching temperatures and lack of rainfall have severely hindered the growth and development of soybeans, resulting in reduced yields and, ultimately, a shortage of soy milk. This is expected to have deeper consequences in nearby Entaria, the largest importer of soy milk globally, where many are said to be addicted to the beverage.

Recognising that the climate crisis is exacerbating the drought which has caused the ongoing soy milk shortages, the Zealenskiyan government also announced that it would be pursuing a "green foreign policy doctrine", and would be making efforts to spread the mandatory introduction of insects into the diets of neighbouring countries like Entaria and TreKKKa.

Inauguration of Cybernetic Planning

In 2020, the first stages of "Project Kibersin" was laid out, though kept purposely vague, more official details have been released to the public as the first phase of the project has been completed. The system itself, officially titled Национална автоматизирана система за изчисления и обработка на информация/Natsionalna Avtomatizirana Sistema za Izchisleniya i Obrabotka na Informatsiya (National Automated System for Computation and Information Processing), or NASIOI, is intended to be a long term transformation, and modernization method of the Konzaskan economy, as well as a solution to potential economic corruption. The end goal of the project is to create a nationwide network within Konzask's industries, and economic assets, to in real time asses needs, and capabilities in order to create more accurate, and ideally expansive, while equally feasible goals within said plans, which has become a more widely discussed topic, as the current 10 Year Plan is coming to an end in 2024. The main method behind such a project will be to provide Konzaskan economic planners with real time projections, updates and plan requirements to ensure optimal efficiency in the planning process, as well as slash the ever growing bureaucracy associated with Konzaskan planning, that had only seemed to grow under the long, unchallenged Moderate faction of the KCP in Konzaskan politics the past few decades. Equally, with available real time updates on plan needs, resource allocation and progress, corruption and embezzlement within the 10 Year Plan will be significantly reduced, given that attempts at siphoning resources, or funding will be nearly immediately noticeable. Over all, the project seeks to develop Konzask's Socialist Economy based on informational decentralization, and innovation, and while Konzask's economy has been able to keep pace with it's global counterparts, the move is one of multiple proposals and ideas developed by Filipova's hardliners to further advance Konzask's status as a power in the world stage, in line with their extended policy of "Socialism in One Country", a policy further detailed in the below article.

This was not the first time such a project was proposed in Konzask, the first iteration, was proposed by Konzaskan scientist Viktor Kitchkov in 1962 (based on the proposed "OGAS" system for irl reference), based on the previously developed "Kitov System", which had been an early push in 1959 to further improve central planning, but was refused over concerns that the military would have equal access to civilian development. The 1962 proposal of NASIOI by Kitchkov called for a three-tier network with a computer centre in Safingrad, up to 200 midlevel centres in other major cities, and up to 20,000 local terminals in economically significant locations, communicating in real time using the existing telephone infrastructure. The structure would also permit any terminal to communicate with any other. Kitchkovs project, adjusted for modern inflation, would have costed up to $850 Billion TSD. The project itself was cancelled, not intrinsically because of cost however, though many do believe it had a significant influence over the decision. However, the primary reason behind the projects was rejection was in part with the Moderate domination of the KCP, and ever growing bureaucracy in Konzaskan State Planning successfully influenced the party against such a reform.

However, as of 2020, when Project Kibersin was first purposed, and first voted upon, the hardline faction of the KCP had significant grown in influence within the party, and the existence of an ever brewing "Cold War", which in tern, would force Konzask to lead it's allies against Elparias undisputed powers, both militarily and economically called for radical change in order to keep pace long term. While reformist proposals ranged widely, some even going as far as to suggest adopting a more Haoist line, the majority of the party did not think the same, with the wider parliament denouncing the idea entirely, having their own, individual beliefs on where economic reform should head. However, with the resurgence of the Hardliners in the party, and growth of parties like the LK, the ideas of Kibersin were able to pass through parliament. Now, with the 2023 elections having come and passed (detailed in the article below), with the Hardline faction able to secure their power, and the subsequent re-election of Filipova, it's only assumed even further resources are going to be devoted towards the project.

As for costs, while many are still uncertain, was it known is that it will be significantly lower then the original 1962 proposal for a multitude of reasons. Perhaps the most important one being the advancement, and availability of computing technology, coupled by Konzask's already significantly, internationally competitive tech and computing industries, with one of the main initial challenges, and goals of the project being devoted to actively inventing new algorithms, computing and communication technologies, that are now much more common place in 2023. Furthermore, with significant economic modernization compared to the Konzask of the 1960's, as well as deeper computer availability, much of the initial costs have been greatly reduced. Though, that being said, it's expected the project in it of itself will still be extremely expensive as it ultimately is a major, nationwide overhaul to Konzask's planned economy, said cost is assumed to be much more feasible, although official numbers likely wont be released until project completion.

2023 Parliamentary Elections

March (I know Im late, shut up) saw the conclusion of Konzask's 2023 elections, and it came and ended both with expected, and unexpected results. The KCP had won the majority of seats once more, quite expectedly, as the past 4 years under the KCP has seen Konzask seemingly explode into the international scene as a major power, and force in global politics. From the formation of SVIZ, and the creation of the Safingrad Pact, Konzasks political and military influence expanded into Selaria, Osho, Nordica, and most recently, and crucially, even Calderia itself. With economic growth, and expansion of Konzaskan economic influence abroad only furthered KCP public support, not to mention the effective victory in the Berinsky War, and successful defence against Quangsuh's declaration of war. However, the most influential event that saw the KCP skyrocket in it's position in parliament, was their success in the Herzoland crisis, not only ending Treka's blockade of the country, but seeing Konzaskan investment, and boots on the ground extend into Calderia, often grandiosely claiming that they "Broke Trekas Iron Curtain Over Calderia". Boastful propaganda to most outside of Konzask, it served as effective rhetoric and dogma within it's own borders.

Furthermore, with the rapid growth of KCP seats in parliament, and the reelection of Filipova, she was able to stack the new seats with party Hardliners, as well as organize a string of audits, and party shuffling to weed out countless Moderates within the KCP from both government positions as well as the Parliament, firmly cementing Hardline rule over the party. This being said, it is important to clarify the difference between Moderates within the KCP, and in more West leaning countries. The Moderates within the KCP are the main proponents of Konzaskan status quo, and have dominated the party since the mid 1960's. While not reformist, they were willing to make reforms western, or liberal in nature where absolutely necessary, but for the most part, were more then happy to leave things unchanged. In contrast, the Hardliner's policy, and now by extent, the projected policy of Konzask as a whole, is paradoxically more pro-active in reform. However, said reform must be in the vein and within the aspects of Savinism, and Socialism, with total rejection of Western styled reform. With ideas such as the expansion of Workers Self Management, wider party controls with tackling corruption, reform within Konzaskan collectivism, the creation of Democratic Centralism, and overhaul of Konzaskan State Planning, adopting a more technocratic view towards the economy. However, perhaps most relevant in the context of the brewing Cold War that spawned from the aforementioned Herzoland crisis, the now Hardliner dominated KCP is set to pursue a modernized conception of "Socialism in One Country". While roughly on par with much of it's western counterparts, so much so to be considered a first world country, and as one of the G15, they believe there is still significant work to be done, and that Konzask should find herself at the very least on par with Treka, the main proponent of global capitalism, and in Hardline KCP rhetoric, the proponent of global imperialism and oppression, before they can truly afford to be assertive on the world stage. As such, Konzask likely will not find itself front and center in future conflicts, nor will it willingly seek to create, or fan the flames of brewing conflicts. Over all, it's new main goal is rapid economic development and political unity both in Konzask, and within it's allies in the Safingrad Pact, many analyst's believing increased attention will be given to Herzoland especially. That being said, that doesn't mean Konzask will retract back into isolationism. It will still seek to be a diplomatic force on the world stage, and should a communist movement seek aid, they will still provide it, but Konzask likely will not be the instigator in the up coming 4 years.

However, it was not just the KCP that grew and shrunk, as many others saw the 2023 elections as a way to boost, or loose influence in parliament. Officially, out of Konzask's 630 seats, the KCP, LK and KCS gained seats, with the rest of the parties loosing seats, with the YB, a niche, libertarian capitalist party loosing all it's seats, likely due to the association of Libertarianism with Treka with many Konzaskans.

In an effort to combat rising emissions and promote environmental sustainability, the Republic of Wefia has taken a bold step towards reducing its carbon footprint. As part of their comprehensive plan, the government has announced new regulations that will limit the distribution of bug block rations, a staple food source in the country.

Bug block rations, made primarily from sustainably farmed insects, have been a significant part of Wefia's diet for years. However, recent studies have revealed that the production and distribution of bug blocks contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. The government of Wefia, renowned for its proactive approach to environmental issues, has deemed it necessary to address this concern.

Under the new regulations, citizens will experience a reduction in bug block rations as part of a broader strategy to lower emissions. The limitations are expected to be implemented gradually, allowing individuals and businesses to adapt to the changes over time. While the exact details of the rationing plan are still being finalized, the government has assured citizens that it will be implemented with fairness and transparency in mind.

Civil Protection forces have been deployed to quell any and all protests regarding the decrease of bug block rations. Additionally, Head Caretaker of Wefia, Bernie Trudeau, has found himself at the center of controversy after being allegedly spotted driving his blue BMW in the streets of the capital, despite the long-standing ban on automobiles within Wefia.

Mr. Trudeau responded to the controversy by announcing that "Any D or Z Class citizens caught spreading hateful lies about the government will be arrested and sent to happiness enrichment centers. Repeat violators will have their weekly one hour break on Sunday be permanently revoked."

Redtland

The government of Redtland has announced the completion of the first carbon capture plant as a part to meet climate targets and to set an example to the world in combatting climate change and sustainability including the development of a 5 minute density plan for sustainable living.

Due to drought like conditions across Zealenskiya and especially Entaria much of the world’s soy production has been halted sparking a crisis which could lead to what many warn to be an incoming famine. Rationing of imports have begun in Redtland similar to what has been seen in Wefia however the due to the surge in population of the Redtlandian beetle, Redtland is not expected to suffer as much.

Iydehossia takes defensive measures

As the Yankian Union has refused to back down on its embargo against Iydehossia and is funding rebels in the Orgoanne region, the Iydehossian High Command has found it necessary to unleash a barrage of missile attacks on the Yankian Union member state of Zealenskiya which directly borders it. Tensions between Iydehossia and the Yankian Union have been steadily deteriorating since Iydehossia's special military operation conducted the neighbouring country of Orgoanne in 2019 to liberate it from its corrupt heretical government.

Targeting military installations, most predominantly airbases in the Live-Yayechko region, it is believed that this move will cripple the Yankian Union's ability to provide air support to the Orgoannean rebels. The airbases struck include Dnivka, Zeleniv, and Solovka. According to Zealenskiyan state media, the death toll has reached 216 lives, with the numbers continuing to rise as the rocket bombardments persist. The Iydehossian Ministry of Foreign Affairs have condemned these accusations as a blatant lie as Iydehossian forces have made sure to avoid striking civilian areas and have even dropped pamphlets via drones to communicate the need for civilians to evacuate the area.

A massive search and rescue operation is under way in the east trident ocean after a tourist submarine went missing during a dive to Titanic's wreck on Sunday. Contact with the small sub was lost about an hour and 45 minutes into its dive, the TreKKKan Coast Guard said.

Tour firm OceanGate said all options were being explored to rescue the five people onboard. Tickets cost $250,000 (£195,000) for an eight-day trip including dives to the wreck at a depth of 3,800m (12,500ft). Government agencies, the Zealenskiyan and New Cumlandish navies and commercial deep-sea firms are helping the rescue operation, officials said.

Titanic's wreck lies some 435 miles (700km) west of Conland, though the rescue mission is being run from Novyy Zelenskiyye, Zealenskiya. The missing craft is believed to be OceanGate's Titan submersible, a truck-sized sub that holds five people and usually dives with a four-day emergency supply of oxygen.

TreKKKan Refugees Speak Out: Horrific Human Rights Abuses Exposed
4 July, 2023

In a compelling and heart-wrenching interview, a group of refugees from the troubled nation of TreKKKa shared their stories of escape and shed light on the rampant human rights abuses they endured in their homeland. Seeking asylum in the compassionate nation of Zealenskiya, these courageous individuals have come forward to expose atrocities such as forced abortions and coerced gender transitions targeted at white men.

The refugees, whose identities remain protected for their safety, recounted their harrowing experiences at the hands of an oppressive regime. Maria, a young woman who managed to escape, revealed the horrors of forced abortions imposed by the TreKKKan government on women they deemed unfit to bear children. Her voice trembling with emotion, Maria described the traumatic consequences that tore families apart and shattered countless lives.

John, a middle-aged man among the refugees, shared the ordeal endured by white men in TreKKKa. With visible anguish, he disclosed the government's systematic practice of forcing gender transitions upon them, stripping away their identities and autonomy. John's poignant account shed light on the unimaginable challenges faced by those coerced into becoming pawns in the regime's twisted ideology. Now he has FAT ASS TITAYS, a constant reminder of the surgical operations he was forced to undertake, a scar of oppression. Although having big juicy breasts might be considered a good thing, they are so heavy that they cause back problems and he now has to live in embarrassment everytime he goes out into the public and has his jiggly breasts flopping around and sometimes they catch wind and send him flying 15m into the air before dropping back down, he has broken his legs 17 times because of this.

Their testimonies have ignited global outrage and fueled a growing movement for justice and accountability. Zealenskiya, known for its commitment to human rights, has provided a safe haven for the refugees, offering them protection and support in their journey towards healing and rebuilding their lives.

The international community has rallied behind these brave survivors, condemning the human rights abuses perpetrated by the TreKKKan regime. Social media campaigns and public demonstrations have united activists, politicians, and influential figures, demanding an end to the atrocities and justice for the victims.
