Breaking News: Norgsveltian made submarine becomes an UCA favorite.

The Norgsveltian made Havfrue-class submarine has reached headlines in several allied countries after it became known that several members of the UCA have decided to modernize their submarine fleet by ordering the Havfrue submarine. With it being equipped with lithium-ion batteries making it able to stay submerged for longer and at higher speeds compared to other conventional diesel-electric submarines. Which has made it a mainstay in both the Norgsveltian and Côtois navies.

After meeting in Nuvrenon held yesterday between the minister of foreign affairs, Bjørn Varg and the Tavari prime minister, Zaris Nevran Alandar, it was agreed that the Royal Tavari Armed Forces will be ordering 6 Havfrue-class submarines. When asked to comment about the meeting Bjørn Varg stated that “Tavaris is a crucial ally and partner for Norgsveldet, in which they serve as an important member for the UCA and for security and stability in West Gondwana”. Varg is said to be visiting New Leganes next for a meeting with Areuina Karnéias in which it is rumored that the Cukish also have been looking towards modernizing their submarine fleet.

The minister of defense, Ive Ervenlen, has stated in a press conference that the navy is also ordering the submarine type with 10 of them being placed as an order from the arms company Ragsberg. Having stated the order is to replace the last 10 Havdjevel class submarines still being operated by the navy. Once the submarines have been delivered, the entire navy diesel-electric submarines will be of the Havfrue type. Some defense experts even suggested decommissioning some of the nuclear submarines being operated by the Norgsveltian navy in favor of a larger submarine fleet made up of the new submarine class. With it being recently discovered that Tavaris is rich in lithium reserves that the batteries of the future submarines will be powered by batteries whose lithium has been mined in Tavaris.

Breaking News: A year with the Royal Family

In a special interview hosted by Jørgen Bjørn of Vakrestrender, we will be talking with His Majesty about all the events and activities that the Royal Family was involved in during 2022. As such we hope everyone at home will enjoy this!

Camera shows clip of the king waving to the camera before fixing his tie, then showing clip of Jørgen Bjørn opening the door to the king’s office much to the surprise of the king

Olav: “Jørgen! What are you doing here? The interview is about to start.”

Jørgen: “Ah, I was around and decided to pop in for a quick chat.”

Olav: “Well I guess it wouldn’t hurt, though it can’t be too long, since well.” gestures to cameras behind Jørgen

Jørgen: “Well it has been a little while indeed. Seems as if you grew more as a person.” Jørgen’s eyes flicker down to Olav’s stomach then back at the king.

Olav: “Oh hush it.” He rolls his eyes but lightly chuckles

Jørgen: “Quite a busy year for the royal family. So many things happened this year, if you had to decide. Which one do you think caused the most gray hairs?”

Olav: He chuckles “I see you’re the one asking the questions, well, it has to be the constitutional crisis. Happened while I was on vacation as well.” He shook his head in amusement

Jørgen: “I do suppose that caused quite a stir indeed.”
Cut to Olav giving the speech in Vakrestrender

Jørgen: “Well, now you say it, I do see a few small gray hairs.” He gives a smile. “What would you suppose was your highlight of the year? Besides visiting Vakrestrender of course.”

Olav: Thinks about it for a moment before a small smile formed on his lips “While my wife’s birthday celebration in Vakrestrender was a big one, I think I have to say the Royal Tour she and I had was a big one. Experiencing all the different cultures of the Crown Realm, and seeing what makes all of them unique is perhaps the most important highlight I’ve had.”

Montage of various clips from Olav spending time in nations from around the Crown Realm.

Jørgen: “So many countries, so much time spent overseas. It feels good to be back home right?”

Olav: “Home is where the family is afterall, though not as many of my children are at home anymore.” King shook his head in amusement

The sounds of a door opening are heard, as well as tiny footsteps being heard. Ny’Kandenor running into view. All while Jørgen simply stares and smiles at Olav. Few moments later, Wilhelmina runs in chasing the tiny kemonomimi around the office trying to get a hold of the child with a distressed look on her face. Meanwhile Ny’Kandenor is smiling ear, dodging and weaving Wilhelmina. Finally the Queen was able to grab onto the child, lifting her up and giving a small sorry to the pair with Ny’Kandenor trying to wiggle out of her gasp.

Jørgen: “Most but not all.” The elf gives a charming smile.

Olav gives a hearty laugh as he stands up and pats Ny’Kandenor rubbing the little kemonomimi’s ears before giving his wife a kiss on forehead. Whispering something into the Ny’Kandenor’s ears which made the little kemonomimi nodded her head excitedly and stopped wiggling. Giving an excited wave to the camera crew before Wilhelmina carries her out.

Olav: Sat down again still chuckling “Sorry about that, she is a little trouble maker.”

Jørgen: Gives a chuckle of his own. “Oh, I am more than aware. She ruined a suit or two, hasn’t she?” He looks at the child with a playful look as the prisoner is escorted away.

Olav: “She Indeed has, she reminds me of Ingrid when she was at her age.”

Picture of pre-transition Jørgen carrying Alexandra and Ingrid when the two kemonomimi children when they were nine and ten.

Jørgen: “I don’t quite remember Ingrid being so troublesome towards me.”

Olav: “That’s because you made them direct it at me.” He says with a small smirk

Jørgen: "Allegedly directed them towards you.” He says with a innocent expression “Speaking of Ingrid, her coronation in Nystatiszna was one to remember was it not?”

Olav: The king sighed at that but smiled non the less “Certainly was one way to start 2022 at atleast! Hardly finished celebrating the renewal year before she got crowned as Matriarch there.”

Footage of her coronation was played, as well some behind the scenes footage recorded by Jørgen himself during the event.

Jørgen: “Well I certainly hoped she packed a good coat with her when she left the nest.” He gives a smile.

Olav: Chuckled “She certainly will need it.”

Jørgen: “Speaking of coronations, there was a second coronation this year as well. Queen Astrid of Helslandr.”

Footage plays of Astrid’s coronation.

Olav: “Seems like becoming a trend among my family that someone is going out to find thrones to fill. Though I am happy for my little sister, I think Helslandr got a great queen to lead them.”

Jørgen: “Your family taking over the thrones, should I be worried for mine?” He gives a chuckle.

Olav: Chuckled “You’re already our Royal Protector for Vakrestrender, so nothing to fear there.”

Jørgen: “Ah, thank the spirits then. Though I suspect Ny’Kandenor would make a great Jarl of Vakrestrender.”

A social media post of Ny’Kandenor being dressed up in one of Jørgen’s suits.

Jørgen: “Alexandra became the High Jarl of the Federation of Tax Collectors." He gives a laugh before quickly stopping to look at the camera with a serious expression. “To the people of the Federation, that was a joke. Please don’t tax my suits again when I come to visit.”

Olav: Chuckles “Not sure that will work, they don’t have any mercy boy.”

Jørgen: Sigh “No, no they don’t. Alexandra has a lot of paperwork in her future.”

Olav: “Indeed she does, though I think she be a good High Jarl. Haven’t gotten any complains from Pierre at least!”

Jørgen: “Speaking of which.” He pulls out several pieces of paper out of his suit’s jacket. “I have a series of complaints from the royal family about the tax service in the Federation. Let’s play a little game, if you don’t mind. I’m going to read off some quotes and you have to guess the king or queen that made them.”

Olav: “Certainly new and didn’t expect that but sure, let’s go.” He clapped his hands together and chuckled

Jørgen: Giving a smirk. “You could give a man a fish and he would eat for a day. You teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. Have that man start a company and he be back on the streets asking for fish. Which monarch said that?”

Olav: Ponders for a few seconds before speaking up “Magrete I?”

Jørgen: “Correct! Next one is… You could give them a coat, and they would charge you a sales tax on it.” He looks up at Olav. “I have a bet with Wilhemina that you would not get this one.”

Olav: “Gustaf III.”

Jørgen: Look of disappointment appears on his face. “You are a hundred percent correct.” He claps his hands. “Now this next one, you can probably figure it out quickly.” He gives a smirk “We had to really dig for this one. ‘Federal Tax Service is less of a tax service and more a pack of wolves. They even growl if you deny them.’ Which monarch said that?”

Olav: “Ah, one of his less angrier complaints. It’s Harald III, my father.”

Jørgen: “Would it surprise you that was the only quote from him about the FTS that was appropriate for television?”

Olav: Laugh warmly at that “It would not.”

Jørgen: “Truly a wonderful and friendly tax service they have.” He claps his hands. “So a besides hiding from the tax service, how would you describe your visit to the Federation?”

Olav: "Oh, I loved it! Though I do wish I could have spent more time there to see every corner of it. Unfortunate part of diplomatic and Royal visits is one mainly gets to just see the capital or the largest cities.” He said shaking his head “At some point I might be lucky enough to see every province there, from largest to the smallest.”

Jørgen: “Truly is a shame, I spent time in the Federation. Mostly in C.D, which reminds me. I believe we have a few photos of you during your visit there.”

Cut to a photoshopped image of Olav hiding under a desk with Federal Tax Service officials looking for him. Causing the king to give a hearty laugh including some laughter from behind the camera

Jørgen: “Now let’s change the topic before they start writing me letters again. I have a question, one that has been given to me by several prime ministers, former and current. Who in the Crown Realm makes the best coffee?”

Olav: “That would have to be Eyjaria’s, as much as I like one here in Norgsveldet and in the Federation, Eyjaria’s just can’t be beat.”

Jørgen: “Ah, I am sure you are going to be causing a riot and a fine for that. Speaking of visiting countries, your wife visited her old stomping grounds in Osjford.”

Olav: “Ah she didn’t she? I remember she told me she ate some Borean Seafood at one of the restaurants in the district there.”

Jørgen: “She did, as well, visited her old family’s apartment and her parent’s bakery.”

Video clip showing Wilhelmina’s mother giving her a hug as she entered the bakery with a wide smile on her face

Olav: Chuckled lightly “She has said she missed her mother’s baking.”

Another clip came up showing the queen spending some time with her mother

Olav: “I think she told me that she was doing it as preparation to check which places to visit on Hel’s Day with our youngest. Though I personally am certain she did it because she missed it there.”

Jørgen: “The tides wash across the ocean, but the waves will always carry us home. Quite a loving pair are they not?”

Olav: Chuckled warmly “They certainly are.”

Breaking News: Backlash against the PWP after leaked speciest comments

Heavy public criticism has been thrown towards the PWP after a leaked recording of Deputy Leader, Ivir Enles, making several speciest comments towards the kemonomimi Akuanist minority at a Renewal Year Party. While there is no knowledge of who filmed the recording, the recording itself was sent on Pigeon this morning with a caption saying: ‘I think mister Enles has had a little too many drinks’.

The video showed Enles slurring on his words as he started speaking: ‘Look I have nothing against kemonomimi, I think Akuanism is a great religion. But ones who live here are so fucking brainwashed like they are in Nystat- Nystatiz the fucking place where they are all from…’

The recording showed a friend of Enles trying to calm him down and telling him to not go on with their comments, but Enles continued on with what they were saying earlier: ‘Look from a purely spiritual and moral level Akuanists here should be voting for us socialists! Instead they vote for the UD, that doesn’t make sense!’

Recording ended with Enles becoming agitated by their friend taking away his vodka bottle and telling him to stop making those comments. In which the agitated Enles saying he was correct before calling members of the Royal Family a speciest slur.

Said comments had led to huge backlash online but also among the general public. With protests in Osfjord calling for the PWP to kick Enles out of their party.

Åsmund Ny’Elsen, the leader of the Akuan wing of the UD, came out on pigeon to speak on the situation. ‘I am incredibly disappointed in Enles and the PWP for tolerating such a culture to foster in the first place. Such hateful comments do not fit a man of his station and we will pray for his heart to turn aways from vile anger.’

Merli Cirivele, leader of PWP, has stated she will talk about the comments with Enles himself in private and states: ’We oppose all kinds of speciesm and we are a party for everyone. These comments stand against everything our party stands for’.

We tried to reach out to Enles for a comment about the comments but none were given. We will update about the situation as new information is given.

Breaking News: Corrupt Former Prime Minister Sverdrup dating the Jarl of Vakrestrender

The ex-prime minister Johanna Sverdrup has recently caught up in another major controversy when leaked pictures of her being intimate with the Jarl of Vakrestrender was seen on social media. While there have been previous pictures of the two being close, those were disregarded as being typical Akuan customs. With the leaked pictures being of a far more intimate level. This led to a major uproar on social media demanding the end of the relationship, with some being dismayed by the fact that the Jarl was dating anyone.

It is not yet known who leaked the pictures with the source being anonymous. Previously it was thought the Jarl was dating the ex-prime minister’s little sister, Eve Sverdrup. With the pair being seen having a close moment at a mini-golf course in October. Despite our best efforts to reach out for a comment Eve Sverdrup has refused to answer them.

Our reporters also requested the Jarl to comment on the topic. He refused to answer questions and only had this on the matter.
“It is not in the public interest of who I am or am not currently dating, and I would greatly appreciate to have questions not centered on my personal life.”

Similar results have been faced with attempting to get in contact with the disgraced prime minister. Despite the heavy criticism and outrage directed her way especially for the relatively large age gap between the two with Sverdrup being nine years older then the Jarl. Concerns have been raised that the young jarl is breaking his family tradition of only dating and marrying elves. A tradition dating back to the founding of Vakrestrender proper.

Users on social media living in Vakrestrender have made the claim that Valkyr news as well other news agencies operating in Vakrestrender have not reported on the topic. Having to learn the news online or having to use a VPN to visit the Norgsveldet NNN website rather than using the Valkyr NNN website instead.

The NNN office, releasing a statement that the story is in on the NNN website in Vakrestrender and will launch an internal investigation on why the story is not appearing for a small number of users.

The journalist for this story requested to have their name not published on the article.

Breaking News: Tangrland gains independence and a new constitution

After his Majesty’s speech in the Tangrian capital of Mærhalen it has officially been established as an independent nation. One which the king and the government also was faced with the dilemma of deciding for the country who shall lead Tangrland. As a result of Tangrland’s unique constitution that was established back in 1925, the Tangrian constitution could only be changed by approval of the Norgsveltian Crown. During the independence talks both the High Maiden of Tangrland, Sigrid X and High Lord Feirleik VI brought up the issue of replacing the old constitution with a new one. But with two wildly different drafts.

Feirleik’s proposal was based around establishing Tangrland as an independent centralized kingdom, in which the High Lord would take the position of king away from the Norgsveltian Crown. According to Feirleik the constitution would give a lot of power to the new king, and give the military more power. Which he argued was needed to deal with Tangrland’s separatist insurgency in the interior and finally get rid of the left wing INLF. Claiming federalism and decentralization would weaken the nation and bring instability. He has been condemned by the clergy for his autocratic positions and his connections to the foreign corporations stationed in Tangrland.

Sigrid’s proposal was on the other hand completely opposite. Which wanted to create an independent but federalist and democratic nation which would still be in the Crown Realm. According to her the constitution would be built around tolerance, federalism and democracy. A process that would be led and protected by the religious clergy which was under her leadership. The diarchy would be replaced with an elected position which would be called Minister-President. She also proclaimed that she will attempt to negotiate with the moderate members of the INLF, a position she has been condemned by the High Lord and nationalists for holding.

It was during his Majesty’s speech that he announced to the world that he and his government had decided that Sigrid’s proposal would be the Tangrian nation’s new constitution. After which the High Maiden held a press conference in which she would ensure her public for what Tangrland will go through under her leadership. Promising a rapid transformation of Tangrland and end of the “oligarchy” within the nation.

With Tangrland’s independence having shrunk the Imperial Realm’s land territory and population by almost 50%, with gdp shrinking by 15,6%. With some experts wondering how much Tangrland’s independence might affect the feeling of independence movement in Vakrestrender. Though it is expected that the Norgsveltian government might try to invest more into Vakrestrender with them and Norgsveldet being the only Crown States in the Imperial Realm.

Breaking News: Deputy Leader of the Fatherland Party Defends Blåskog

Deputy Leader of the Fatherland Party, Rosia Sannadatur, has recently stated her disapproval of an NCEF council vote held recently this week. The vote had an almost unanimous support on jointly condemning Blåskog’s treatment and negligence of minority species and its speciest immigration policies that specifically benefits elves. With the council also agreeing on placing limited joint travel restrictions to make it harder for nationals from Ulvrikia to migrate to Blåskog. In which the NCEF president, Mæra Saradatur, had held a speech proclaiming that: “Our organization stands in support of democracy, equality and the rule of International Law. We in the strongest possible words condemn the Blåskovian government continued treatment of minorities and will limit amount of elven settlers migrating to Blåskog”

While other parties like the PWP, have criticized the vote for not going far enough, it had a different reaction from the FP. With Miss Sannadatur having stated that it treats Blåskog “unfairly” and that the vote is going to hurt “elven and ulvriktru unity”.

She received harsh criticism from other parties with the leader of the Ulvriktru Democrats and current minister of foreign affairs, Bjørn Varg, having stated on Pigeon that: “The vote is a vote in opposition to crimes against sapient kind and speciesm. It is the only morally rightful action that can be taken. Miss Sannadatur’s statements of excusing the hate and the autocratic tendencies of Blåskog, is clearest example of what she’d want to replicate in Nyveldet.”

Miss Sannadatur was quick to respond to the message proclaiming that: “Mister Varg is too busy kissing the asses of the Brewmasters to actually stand up for our Ulvriktru brothers. Go and convert to Akuanism instead!”

The highly insensitive comment was met with clear push back with UD voters on the mainland actively voicing their displeasure against the comment. With the Akuanist Wing of UD, Åsmund Ny’Elsen, having stated that: “We are dismayed by Miss Sannadatur’s comments, and we hope she reconsiders her words as well her actions. We will pray for her heart that it grows into one of understanding for all of Akua’s children, rather than only one.”

Despite calls for her to apologize she has stated on the Pigeon that she won’t let herself be “silenced”. Her comments have earned her a large degree of support among the radical members of the FP with the woman wing of the party giving their full support behind their leader. Some wondered if her comments were an act of strengthening her position in the party before the party meeting in May.

Breaking News: East Atlalandr and UCCS sign military agreement after tensions over Crown Realm military exercise.

After a meeting between leaders of East Atlalandr and the UCCS it was revealed that an extensive military agreement has been formed between the two countries. The East Atlalandr prime minister, Sanna Vakrela, has revealed the agreement will further training and cooperation between both nation’s militaries. With pilots from the Atlalandian Republican Forces now going to be trained by UCCS’s pilots.

Which the prime minister has reassured will go to modernizing the military with importation of military equipment from the UCCS.

The agreement came after the East Atlalandr president complained about the Crown Realm military exercise that finished two weeks ago. The exercise was criticized by the East Atlalandrer President, Ørn Gerjikdal, who called it an overly militarized and claiming participant nations being involved in a “Cold War mentality”. Gerjikdal has suggested in recent years that a Concordian Conference should be held to lower the militarization of the continent that he proclaims should have ended after the Cold War. Having recently stated in an interview done by the far left Eina’s Star (Eyjarian Newspaper) that:

“I thought that we were done with this mentality of threats and geopolitical grand stranding. Can we not build a continent committed to peace? I understand our people and everybody else on this continent that we are suspicious of our neighbors. But I think if we all took a moment to just think about a better future. Some say that is impossible, but people thought the same about us becoming a democracy back in the 90s. If I was able to change that? Well, I think we all can look towards each other as neighbors and not enemies.”

The interview was criticized by Einarist and Nationalist parties in the East Atlalandr parliament. Proclaiming it as “naive and traitorous thinking”, despite that it was received positively by every other party and by the East Atlalandian people at large. With the president being massively popular in East Atlalandr. Gerjikdal has won the mostly ceremonial presidency time and time again since 2001, with him having won the recent presidential election in 2019 with over 63% of the vote. The lowest Gerjikdal ever got.

Breaking News: Anti-Socialist bill passed through the Nyveldian Council

The Administrative Council of Nyveldet passed a bill this Wednesday that has been heavily criticized by the local left wing parties for what is perceived as an anti-socialist law. The new law would require foreign left wing media to be approved by a joint council of concerned parents organizations. This was pushed by largely religious and parental organizations after controversy of an elementary school teacher distributing the Federation made children book series, The Adventures of Little Comrade, to her students. Which has been heavily criticized for its socialist message aimed at children. With Kåre Hegna, a children author and president of ‘Parents for Childhood Reading’ having heavily criticized the book series for promoting a political ideology in a children’s book.

The bill was supported by the Fatherland Party and the Ulvriktru Democrats. With the Administrative President of Nyveldet, Ragnar Torsteinson, having stated his active support to the bill. Proclaiming it as a victory for family values. It is yet known if the bill affects foreign left wing news organizations like Eina’s Star which has become more popular in Nyveldet in recent years especially among tiefling teenagers living in the interior counties. Leader of the PWP, Merli Cirivele, has condemned the bill as an “attack on the freedom of the media” and claiming that the Fatherland Party is specifically targeting the tiefling minority.

With passing of the bill hundreds of bookstores in Nyveldet has canceled their orders of left wing children books and movies mainly coming from the Federation. It is also yet to know if this bill would be considered legal by the Norgsveltian High Court, with fact that the national law on foreign media only banning contents if said contents are “made with the distinct purpose of spreading propaganda which is either authoritarian, hateful or harmful to Norgsveltian values”. With the national foreign media law reflecting Norgsveldet’s previous bans against Einarist, Hirdist and Martovist media. According to one High Court Judge, Martina Maritsdatur, the regional bill would not be accepted by the constitution.

Breaking News: Federation blocks Norgsveltian-Durakian arms deal

An arms deal between the Norgsveltian Armed Forces and the Durakan Armed Forces was blocked by the Federation which stated their disapproval of the arms deal and stated a concern about its content. This having been announced this morning by the Federal Prime Minister, Jeanne Pierre, who stated that: “With our nation’s arms industries being so intertwined with Norgsveldet’s own industry, as such our two nations arms exports has to be a unanimous decision. As such I will state our nation cannot trust our joint military products being sent to a nation we have less than optimal relations with.”

This was revealed a day after a statement by the foreign affairs department that the Norgsveltian Air Force was going to sell twenty of its HK-22s, which were being replaced by the HK-45, for 410 million UKR (205 million SHD). The agreement happened after a diplomatic conference between Bjørn Varg, Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Durakan leader, Tarov Hyla. With it having been a long awaited agreement by the latter to modernize its air force. With the Federation’s decision to block the decision having been met with pushback from Norgsveldet with Wilhelma Kirkeland having stated his “disappointment” and “disapproval” by the decision. With him later stating in a press conference he was determined to supply the Durakia with the fighters, stating: “They are a vital member of the UCA and a trusted ally, we will not change our stance.”

The dispute between the two major geopolitical powers has put into question the Federation’s own arms agreement with nations that are friendly to them. With many now wondering how Jeanne Pierre’s diplomatic meeting in Bana next week is going to go with this new diplomatic backdrop.

Opinion Piece: Hakonffee’s inherent moral failure

While I know my title would certainly provoke some folks I do suggest reading through this post to understand what I mean by it. Sure, on a first glance it seemed like this company is the ideal worker cooperative people might think about. An company led by the workers that shows the world it can not only survive but compete with large business conglomerates like Månfjord. With the workers being honest, hardworking and trustworthy. Take that with the company’s Akuan nature and it almost looks like you got the whole package. A company led by workers from a religious minority striving in the very heart of Norgsveldet, despite the nation’s utterly horrific treatment of said minority a little more than a century prior. It is an inspiring tale I am sure.

But that is the issue, it’s a tale. This nice little story tells you nothing of the company’s inherent major moral failure. That being its very name sake, Haakon III. The company strives on its Royalistic propaganda, it strives on a glorified view of said past king and strives by allying itself with political powers that are determined to hold up said glorified image. There is no secret why the company actively supports the UD, and why local UD politicians defend them from criticism. They both prosper from ignoring the actual fact that Haakon III was an utter failure of a king. He failed to stop the Akuan Atrocities and did nothing for the tiefling population in Nyveldet. Many have forgotten that it wasn’t just Akuanists that were massacred during the Imperial War, hundreds of thousands of tieflings from across the Norgsveltian Empire were massacred for their demands of self determination. What did Haakon ever do for them? Absolutely fucking nothing. Closest our tiefling siblings got as an compensation from him was his nephew Gustaf III stated how “horrified” he was of the cruelty the Norgsveltian army did in Nyveldet.

As such I must ask a simple question. Why can’t we try to move away from glorifying past kings? Why must we honor leaders who deserve no honor? The glorification of Haakon that Hakonffee and their UD allies do is inherently problematic. It is no better than picking cultural and religious favorites among the diverse people that make our nation. With the decision to honor Haakon rather than let his image rot and be forgotten, all we have done as a society is give one large middle finger to our tiefling brothers and sisters.

Until Hakonoffee learns that lesson and apologizes to our tiefling minority, it is our duty as moral folk to boycott their company.

*Editorial note: The NNN does not approve of the comparison between the Akuan Atrocities and the Tiefling Massacres, both horrid actions done by the Norgsveltian government at the time. In light of this comparison we see it worth reminding our readers that between 6 and 7 million Akuanists were killed by the Norgsveltian Army during the Akuan Atrocities. Estimates about the amount of tieflings killed by the Tiefling Massacres varies, the highest number being estimated to be in between 800k and 900k, according to the Royal University of Osfjord.

Breaking News: Reparation Bill fails to pass the parliament

After a week of discussion in the parliament the vote of the government’s Reparations and Repatriation Bill was finally held this morning, in which it failed to pass. With 266 voting in favor coming from the government’s parties of LP and UD, with support from the PWP. While 314 members of the parliament voted against the bill, those coming mostly from the NCP, LNP and FP. With 20 members abstaining. This bill has been a long awaited one with it being a matter of heavy discussion within the government since October of last year. The bill’s proposal was to make the government obliged to use 0,5% of the nation’s GDP over the course of several decades to nations and communities affected by the Norgsveltian government’s atrocities during the Imperial War and colonization of Akuan and Tiefling lands. It was expected that half of the sum would be sent to Ymirland, as reparations for the Ymirland Genocide. The bill also included extra economic payment to help the repatriation of people to Norgsveldet, on the wishes of the ‘Returning to the Homeland’ movement. Though the amount which this would include has different calculations it has been estimated that up to two million people would be repatriated to Norgsveldet if the bill was passed and enforced.

Despite the large public support to the bill it was heavily outvoted in the parliament as a result of opposition from most opposition members. With the Fatherland Party having been the biggest critic against the bill, with their Deputy Leader Rosia Sannadatur having criticized the bill’s proposal of giving reparations to the tiefling in Nyveldet. Stating it is being “nonsensical” and stating that the Autonomous Communities in Nyveldet already getting enough money from the state. When asked if her party would vote in favor of the proposal if that was removed she stated that “it certainly increases the possibility”.

The parties of NCP and LNP have stated their disagreement on the amount being spent and stated that they will only change their vote if the government cuts the amount. With the leader of the LNP, Carl Agnar, proclaiming in a Pigeon post that: “The amount the government has proposed to spend could be used on far more important topics such as the physical and mental care for our LGBTQ communities. The injustice previous governments like ones led by the UD has done to our queer citizens must be corrected first before we can talk about reparations to other nations.”

The proposal has been criticized by other nations for its specific focus on Akuanist and tiefling communities, the loudest being of the Tieresh government. Which condemned the bill for ignoring the colonial crimes done by Norgsveldet, and demanded the Norgsveltian government to spend a similar amount to Tiervan as reparations. This has been completely rejected by Bjørn Varg, Minister of Foreign Affairs who when asked said: “We won’t give a single penny until the Hirdist government of Twain Aukusti is toppled, only when that day happens can we start talking about reparations.”

The bill was extremely controversial in Nyveldet with many citizens there condemning it, though it was largely supported in the majority tiefling communities in Ånslan and Duarlan. The bill was largely supported in Wergby as well with the city’s Akuan District having been one most vocal proponents for the bill in Nyveldet. The controversy has mostly come over the issue of reparation to the local tiefling community. It has been known that far right groups like the Nyveldian National Front have been known to threaten local politicians that supported the bill. Though the bill was mostly unpopular among far right members it has faced criticism from the left with Eli Enitedatur from the PWP having voted in favor of the proposal but criticized the smaller amount tiefling communities would be given. With only 10% of the money suggested to go to the tiefling community.

The government has announced they will continue discussion of the topic within the parliament, though some ministers have suggested asking the king to hold a new election. With many pointing towards opinion polls showing that the majority of people actively supports the bill.

Breaking News: Nyveldian Council bans gay marriage

The Administrative Council of Nyveldet has just passed a bill that would ban gay marriage in Nyveldet, this having been done right before the Constitution Day that will be held tomorrow. The decision by the Council has met with outrage, even among UD politicians in Nyveldet which has stated the bill is unconstitutional. The bill had been pushed forward by the Fatherland Party with the Administrative President Ragnar Torsteinson stating his support for the bill. With Torsteinson also proclaiming his heavy opposition to any “mainland attempts to reverse the decision.” The Norgsveltian high court has stated their disapproval of the bill stating it goes directly against the Gay Marriage Act of 1989, which made gay marriage a constitutional right.

There been a matter of some concern if the Nyveldian government would enforce this law on Akuan community within Wergby as such one of our reporters asked about the topic to Torsteinson who simply responded: “Akuanist aren’t gay they are Akuanist, and Akuan Marriages will be defended like any other traditional marriage.”

The Jarl of Vakrestrender, Jørgen Bjørn spoke out against the Nyveldian bill in one of his rare public statements; “One would believe in this day and age, we have moved past such primitive beliefs and hatred. One can only hope that the Nyveldian government will not go through with this constitutional violation.”

In addition to his statement, the Bjørn trust has paused construction of the amusement park; ‘Jotunland’ and the board will be considering the sustainability of current and future investments and companies within the region. With a leak proposal of decreasing the amount of staff at ‘Family Focus Entertainment’ a film and television studio service in Nyveldet. To add to the concerns made by the Bjørn trust, the firm has openly stated they are reconsidering buying from Nyveldian farmers for food at their hotels and resorts, stating that they are open to new partnerships for supplying foodstuffs to their tourist facilities.

In Vakrestrender proper, concerns have been raised about continuing to order agriculture produce from Nyveldet. With one restaurant owner in the country, stating that he is no longer going to continue to order imports coming from Nyveldet and will be buying ingredients from more local Auroran sources.

With large numbers of pro-LGBTQ protests having been staged in all the major cities of Nyveldet, with LGBTQ organizations in Norgsveldet actively condemning the Nyveldian decision and urging the national government to help the region’s queer community.

Breaking News: Terrorist bombing in Kaldrbuth!

It has recently been reported that a major terrorist attacks has been committed in the Kaldrbuthian town of Ishindale. Mainly targeting government buildings and religious institutions, with the local Ulvriktru temple having been completely destroyed during the attack. The Kaldrbuthian government has estimated that over 200 have died from the bombings, with around 50 being children as a result of the bombing of the temple, with far more expected to be injured. Dozens of attempted terrorist attacks were tried at several major cities in Kaldrbuth, including the Federation and Norgsveltian embassies in Hrafnheimr, but was stopped by the Kaldrbuthian Intelligence Service (KIS).

The attacks were the largest in Concordian history since the end of the Cold War, with the perpetrators of the attacks being confirmed to be members of the Kaldrbuthian Republican Front (KRF). The KRF, having previously been a major terrorist organization during the Cold War, focused on the goal of overthrowing the Kaldrbuthian monarchy and nobility. With most of its members proclaiming to have Einarist and Neo-Hirdist sympathies. It is yet unknown how the KRF got the military grade explosives needed for both the attack itself and the attempted ones. With the KIS having estimated that the amount gathered must have been over 17,000 kg worth of explosives, with a huge majority not having been used. It is rumored that the KRF has been planning on creating mass panics to then start a full civil war. The KIS still investigating matter.

The bombings been condemned from across the world with many NCEF nations pushing for the KRF to be recognised as a terrorist organization globally. Prime Minister Wilhelm Kirkeland has stated his condolences to the victims of the attack and has assured the Kaldrbuthian government that the NCIS will help the KIS investigation on KRF activity. Kirkeland having stated on Pigeon that: “We shall never let destructive ideologies win, together the NCEF stands united behind Kaldrbuth. We mourn with you”. Similar statements has been made by the Atlalandian government with their prime minister, Nikkolas Bjarnvikdal having stated that “Ulvrikia shall stand united against extremism of all types, we shall help in any manner we can”.

His majesty, Olav I, has stated his deepest condolences to the victims of the Ishindale Bombings. Stating that he and his wife will be visiting Kaldrbuth to show their support to the Kaldrbuthian people and monarchy. The king has announced during a speech in front of the Ulvriktru Temple in Osfjord that a minute of prayers should be held for those who died at temples. Proclaiming that attacks on places of faith are heinous actions that must be condemned in the harshest possible way.

Queen Astrid XI has announced that she and her government will ensure everything in its power to crush the KRF and has put it forth to the North Concordian Parliament of putting an NCEF wide arrest order against all members of the KRF. Crown Princess Astrid has stated that she and the Arch-Gothir, Gaëtane III, will be visiting the city of Ishindale to pay their respect to the victims.

The Arch-Gothir of the Hjørdist branch of Gustafistic Ulvriktru released a statement about the terrorist attack. “It is a tragedy the assault on any innocent life, however in these times we must look to our Allmother for guidance for her wisdom. In tragedy, I often seek a story of the woman and dragon of Zeak. The dragon seeked to destroy, to burn all that the woman held dear, in return the woman returned with kindness and a spear. If the cowards do not accept the kindness, then the spear is the only option left.”

The Federal Prime Minister of the Federation, Jeanne Pierre released a statement of her own alongside the Arch-Gothir. “Kaldrbuth are our cultural kin, when they bleed it wounds our heart. When they are struck, we are struck as such. We will demand the arrests and dismantling of the KRF. If the monsters refuse, then we will stand along Kaldrbuth in their resolve to destroy the terrorists. I ask for all citizens of the Federation to hold a moment of silence for the lives lost to this attack.”

Breaking News: Rogue East Atlalandian general arrested for supplying the KRF

Shocking news has come out from Veridal as a general in the East Atlandian Army was arrested this morning for having allegedly supplied the KRF with military grade weapons. Weapons which were used by the KRF at the Ishindale Bombings, and during small shootouts between KRF members and the Kaldrbuthian police last weekend. According to the East Atlandian government they had no knowledge about the supplies and had apologized to the Kaldrbuthian government for this event. Darit Hevner, the general in question, has denied any involvement in the terrorist attack. It is yet unknown how much involvement she had with supplying the KRF but according to the joint reports from the NCIS, the KIS and Lapérousian Federal Intelligence Service (LFIS) the general had met once with some leading members of the KRF.

Despite apologies being given from both the prime minister and president of East Atlalandr it has not warmed up the frosty relationship between Kaldrbuth and East Atlalandr. With Astrid XI having lambasted the East Atlalandian government during press conferences and stated the remilitarisation of the border is being discussed as a response to “East Atlandian incompetence”. The approval rating of Sanna Vakrela’s government is at an all time low as it deals with this recent scandal, which is not made better with the opposition spreading conspiracy theories about the arrest. With the Atlalandian Einarist Party (AEP) having accused the government of “purging the military”. Despite the low approval ratings, recent opinion polls have shown that the opposition parties in the National Bloc, a coalition made up of Våldist and Nationalist parties, has not grown much larger. With the AEP and Atlalandian National Republicans (ANR) having 46% support together at the most recent poll, only 0,5% increase since one made last month.

With the aging health of President Ørn Gerjikdal it has been a matter of much debate if he will continue to run for the East Atlalandian Presidential election in September. Despite concerns from his family members who have urged him to not run, the 94 year old president has stated in several interviews he will. Having said that “If I have the strength to walk, I have the strength to run”. Mister Gerjikdal having been the president of East Atlalandr ever since he reformed the country into a parliamentary republic in September of 2001, ending the three decade long one party rule of the Atlalandian Einarist Party. He has become well loved in East Atlalandr for it and is highly expected to win with an overwhelming victory at the election for the 5th time in a row. It has become jokingly said that an East Atlalandian Presidential election is just an overly expensive approval rating poll. With no one expecting the National Bloc’s presidential candidate of Erik Tårnet to have any chance of winning, with the man already being highly controversial for his hyper nationalistic views.

Warning that any attack of said embassies will result with a harsh response.

When asked about citizens volunteering to join the conflict in the defense of Sayyed the minister of foreign affairs has stated they will urge citizens to not join. But did proclaim that there will be no legal consequence of doing so.

With them having organized themselves as the Ravnens Frihetbrigade (Raven’s Freedom Brigade).

Breaking News: Deputy-leader of the Fatherland Party adopts a kemonomimi child

It has been reported to the NNN this morning that Rosia Sannadatur, Deputy-leader of the Fatherland Party, has adopted a kemonomimi child from the local Akuan orphanage within Nyveldet. Causing surprise within local communities in Nyveldet, with Miss Sannadatur having become well known for her numerous anti-Akuanist comments in the past. Which has included comments speaking against the intermixing of species and rhetoric against the Ulvriktru Democrats for perceived policies for special treatment of Akuanists. When asked about the adoption Miss Sannadatur has simply stated that she is “looking out for our fellow Norgsveltians.” She has also stated her apologies on a viral video on Pigeon for her previous statement against kemonomimi and Akuanists within Norgsveldet, blaming the stress caused by fall out of her marriage with her ex-husband, Torstein Jensen, for her previous comments. In the same video she has stated she will take a week break from her job as deputy leader of the Fatherland Party to welcome her new son and help him adjust to his new life.

This all having been followed by previous comments the month before to urge her son, the Administer President of Nyveldet, to follow the High Court ruling against the banning of gay marriage in Nyveldet. Proclaiming that Norgsveldet must avoid another Constitutional Crisis. With the Nyveldian Council’s decision to ban gay marriage having been called unconstitutional by the High Court, having led large legal dispute towards the Nyveldian government which has had to deal with large public protests by pro-lgbtq and farmer organisations. With the latter being caused by a decrease of Valkyr imports of Nyveldian food products.

Miss Sannadatur’s decision to criticize the Nyveldian Council banning of gay marriage and her recent adoption of an kemonomimi child has left supporters and openents baffled, with many questioning her reasoning to abandon her previous political positions relating to both matters. The NNN has tried to reach out to the Nyveldian Administrative President, Ragnar Torsteinson, for a comment about his mother’s criticism but we got no response.

Eli Enitedatur, MP for the People’s Workers Party questioned the authenticity of Miss Sannadatur’s ability and commitment to caring for the child. Releasing a statement on Pigeon, “Are we sure we can trust her with the welfare of a child from the very same people she repeatedly insulted, offended and attacked? Should we not be concerned that she might lash out at the child for her ex-husband actions? She is 104 years old, is she really sure she even be around long enough to take her off the kid? Even more so, shouldn’t we be worried that she might forcely convert him to a religion foreign to him? Akuanists should only be raised by Akuanists, and left to their own means rather than this possible force attempt to convert them.”

Bergiz Ny’kken, leader of the Akuan Interest Party sent a message of their own on the matter as well a reply to Mrs. Enitedatur post on Pigeon. “I would like to congratulate Miss. Sannadatur on bringing a new home to a child, I am confident she has read up on Akuan customs for upbringing and I trust in the orphanage as well the regional government agencies to assure that the home is a warm and welcoming one. We all should be welcoming Miss Sannadatur’s change of heart, as in the stories. ‘Hearts are as fickle as the ocean’s tides, but a strong crew can make their way in the most radical of storms.’ May the spirits continue to guide Miss Sannadatur’s heart and protect the child.” He replied to Miss Enitedatur’s pigeon post about the matter. “This is a deeply troubling comment, especially the implication that Akuanists should have to be segregated and the distrust of our proud institutions to assure the safety of the boy.”

Breaking News: Abortion clinic in the Akuan District of Osjford destroyed;

The Center for Women’s Health and Pregnancy facility in the Akuan District was discovered to be heavily damaged earlier this morning. With the HVAC located on the roof of the building being smashed up and filled with fertilizer; Doors and windows being cemented or welded into place; electric, telephone and fiber cables being cut; as well the piping of sewage and water being sealed off with the valves to the building being glued to prevent turning them. Including several other important parts of the building being heavily damaged as well, but not listed here.

The abortion clinic was opened in February of this year despite being originally planned to be opened last year January, and has been a constant source of strife. With protests around the building construction forcing several delays to its construction. Then when it opened, the largest recorded protest in the district protesting against the opening of the clinic. Despite the fierce resistance to the clinic, it opened regardless in February. Too much animosity of the residents of the district.

The clinic being opened in the district was heavily debated and under much scrutiny within the city council of Osfjord. With the main debate being the purpose of the role of the Woman’s Health Clinic, and it being opened within the Akuan District. Questioning opening such a clinic would be against the Akuan Districts special protections; How much a role of abortion would take place in the woman’s health clinic and several other factors into the discussion. With almost unanimous support from the Akuan clinic being against the opening of the clinic within the district all together unless certain conditions were met by the clinic.

Top of the list of conditions being to only allow abortions in cases of threatening the life of the mother and requiring a doctor’s statement of approval from a different clinic or hospital to confirm the threat to the mother’s life. Another condition was requiring ultrasounds of the pregnancy to be shown to the mother, at the cost of the clinic. Most controversially it required the employees of the clinic to have their name open to the public, which was released to the public and printed on the local Akuan newspapers within the next day of clinic opening.

The clinic suffered from staffing issues, operating on a skeleton crew and consistent budging issues. With a rotation of Akuan protest groups being outside of the clinic during all working hours, often temporarily blocking access to the clinic for hours throughout the week. The clinic made repeated requests to have a police officer stationed at the clinic, however was only able to keep a single officer at the clinic once a week for unspecified reasons.

The staff of the clinic repeatedly aired their frustrations on Pigeon, with a clinic’s only doctor sending a post speaking about feeling of getting the cold shoulder by Akuanists almost overnight when he was hired. Citing the Akuan newspapers having printed his full name and photo as a borderline threat on his life. As well complains about having to move out of the Akuan District which he lived in for two decades for several reasons. Describing a feeling of being collectively shunned by his community and being barred from attending local events in the neighborhood.

It has been suggested by insiders of the Akuan community that the attack was motivated by circumstantial evidence of the clinic providing abortions without the doctor’s statement of the necessity of the abortion and was freely providing the service. Which became proof for the local newspapers that they were not following the conditions of the agreement, and was printed as truth on the matter. Despite the claims, the doctor of the clinic stated that due to the extreme staffing issues and general poor morale of the clinic, filing papers could be easily lost.

Despite this, the clinic was destroyed by an unknown large group of Akuanists, two hours after the clinic closed. Despite the clinic being in a busy and densely populated part of the district, no one in the neighborhood claimed to see the building being damaged nor reported it to the police. The doctor being the one to discover the doors being welded shut and the windows being glued when attempting to open the clinic the morning after.

Repairing the clinic would have cost almost as much as building the clinic in the first place. The doctor claimed, and stated the clinic will not be reopening due to the financial and hostility of the community.

The police have made arrests of three individuals who were found at the area of the crime with welding equipment. They were charged with destruction of property and were required to pay a fine of 2,000 UKR. A local business owner in the neighborhood, Magar Ny’Dahl crowdfunded paying for the fine for the three individuals and paid their bond. Despite only three people being arrested, it has been alleged that close to a dozen and a half Akuanists took part in destroying the building.

The NNN reached out to Prime Minister, Wilhelm Kirkeland, for a comment about the topic and asked if the Labour Party will push for more security and support to abortion clinics. Though Mister Kirkeland has simply stated that: “This is a matter for the Administrative President of the region to deal with, and I trust his judgment on the matter”.

When the NNN reached out to Administrative President of Stor Osfjord, Torbjørn Havret, for an statement he simply claimed it was a matter to the Mayor of Osfjord to deal with and that he is “certain that Mayor Birkdal knows what she is doing”.

Mayor Anna Birkdal has stated that she has placed this matter into the hands of the new police commissioner of Osfjord, who she has put her full faith into dealing with the matter with respect towards both pro-choice and pro-life organizations.

The police commissioner has refused to answer any questions about their position on the matter and simply states that people should respect the law.

The attack against the abortion clinic has gotten a wide array of responses on Pigeon, with important party representatives posting their reactions to the news. In which the People’s Workers Party MP, Yke Nåtveti, had condemned the attack and stated the attack to be a: “Attack on women’s health and clear disrespect towards women rights and shame for the entire nation. The police have failed as an institution and must be held responsible for a lack of security given to the clinic!”

An local Gothir within Osfjord and a notable member of the Ulvriktru Democrats, Henrik Askebein, stated on Pigeon that: “Attack of private property is illegal and must be condemned, however the decision by the clinic to go against regulations set must never be forgotten. I cannot in good conscience ignore such attitudes coming from a so-called ‘professional’ doctor”.

The Akuan Interest Party party leader, Bergiz Ny’kken released a statement on Pigeon. “The murder for hire business of the clinic cannot be ignored, they went against the community wishes and the regulations. The murder facility shouldn’t have ever been built in the first place if they couldn’t fund a full staff. The first thing doctors learn is to do no harm, however we allow such vile places to exist and keep letting doctors harm our more vulnerable people, our children. The baby murdering ‘healer’…” NNN would like to apologize to our readers, for having to cut the quote. For our reasoning for cutting the quote can be found at the end of the article.

NNN approached the doctor of the clinic for a comment on the matter. They stated they were moving to Nyveldet with their family, and requested to have their name not published in the article. The other employees of the clinic have stated similar requests.

Breaking News: KRF members arrested in Norgsveldet and Nisserige!

It has been revealed this morning by the NCIS director, Henrik Wergland, that five members from the Kaldrbuthian terrorist organization, KRF, have been arrested in Osfjord International Airport. With said members having planned to take a plane to East Atlalandr. According to Wergland the NCIS was able to track down the members after an anonymous tip. This has come to light after a series of arrests on KRF members across several nations in Concord after an intense crackdown on KRF activity within Kaldrbuth. This has included an arrest of an KRF member by Nisserige’s police in the city of Franmark, with the Nisser Chancellor Wendel Peters having said was helped with a tip coming from the KIS.

According to a press conference held by the KIS director, Matilda Danidatur, over 300 members from the KRF have either been arrested or terminated and have claimed that their activity has been hampered. Though has stated to remain vigilant and that some high level members of the organization are yet to be found. During the press conference the KIS also claimed to have found links between the KRF and the Kaldrbuthian far right party called National Republicanists. Said links have included certain members among the party having helped fund the KRF through suspicious financial transactions. Which has included a sitting MP on the North Concordian Parliament, Jakop Ørnhorn, one out of only three National Republicanist members in said parliament. Mister Ørnhorn has rejected the claim to having helped fund the KRF.

Ørnhorn and his fellow members of National Republicanists are among only 9 MPs in the North Concordian Parliament to vote against the condemnation of the KRF and have a long history of sympathy towards the organization. Said links between the party and the KRF has led to many within Kaldrbuth to call for the banning of the National Republicanists. With the Kaldrbuthian prime minister, Sara Ysverdatur, announcing that her government will be putting up a motion to the Kaldrbuthian parliament to ban the political party. First time to happen in Kaldrbuth since the end of the Concordian Cold War, with the last time being the banning of the Radical Social Front in 1978.

Breaking News: Riots in Ånslan and Duarlan after a speech made by Far Right Deputy Leader

Yesterday the Deputy Leader of the Fatherland Party, Rosia Sannadatur, after a week break returned to give a speech during the Fatherland Party’s meeting before their leadership vote this July. During the speech she proclaimed that the increased level of crime within Nyveldet is a result of “incompetence” and “mismanagement” by local leaders within the autonomous communities of Ånslan and Duarlan. During the same speech she also praised the far right organization called the Nyveldian National Front for: “Keeping order in the crime ridden interior.”

As a result of the speech, a series of large-scale protests and riots has sprung forth across several towns and cities in the tiefling dominant regions of Ånslan and Duarlan.

The riots has been strongly condemned by the Administrative President of Nyveldet, Ragnar Torsteinson, who has called the rioters for “acting like animals” and stated on Pigeon that he will send the Home Guard to deal with the “insurgents” if the police is not able too.

The abortion clinic in Hirdvik has been destroyed in a similar way to the previous abortion clinic in Osfjord. The growing trend of abortion clinics being more heavily protested against, roads being blocked to and now the concerning development of the clinics being outright directly attacked. After the clinic in Osfjord was destroyed, the Akuan residents of Hirdvik seemed to be emboldened by the lackluster response by the Norgsveltian government.

The clinic itself was not the only one destroyed, as it was reported by the main physician that their car’s tires were slashed and then later on the 20th the car’s gas tank was filled with water. Additionally additional staff stepped forward citing similar things to a lesser scale, such as vandalism on their homes calling them baby killers and broken windows. None of the crimes ever have charges or Akuanists stepping forward to confess the crime.

A veteran police officer gave a statement on the issue but requested to remain anonymous “Usually, when a Akuanists commits a crime even when it’s something minor like jaywalking. They usually walk towards a police officer on their own or the brewmaster pressures them into confessing the crime. No one stepped forward and confessed, the brewmasters are not talking to us about the crime, and the suspects we do bring in ask for a lawyer. This is a complete departure from norm. They still confess and the brewmasters will talk to us about other crimes, just not about what is happening to the employees of the clinic.”

The attack appeared to be coordinated and planned for, with an estimated dozen figures taking direct part in the destruction of the clinic. Despite this, there has been no witness to the crime and the security cameras in the nearby business were allegedly turned off for maintenance. The security cameras in the abortion clinic were turned off after the power lines to the building were cut, resulting in no footage of the attack similar to the previous clinic destruction in Osfjord.

Novreheim’s Administrative President, Hanna Ærligheten, has strongly condemned the attack and the harassment against the clinic’s staff. She along other members of the Labour Party in the region see it as “completely unacceptable” and has urged mayors to increase the security of the clinics. Miss Ærligheten has been one of the Labour Party’s strongest opponents for pro-choice policies, being seen as one of the leading reasons why the party has recently put an official pro-choice platform. Which led to the Akuan Interest Party to split from them in 2020.

She has stated to the NNN that she will fight for “the women’s right for bodily autonomy” and has urged the Norgsveltian government to increase further police funding into Novreheim to ensure security of abortion clinics are protected. While her statements have met with strong support from the People’s Workers Party, it has been limited in support among her own party. With Labour ministers staying silent on her statements while Ulvriktru Democrats ministers, like the Minister of Children and Families, Trin Ny’Itfel, making a statement on Pigeon that: “Miss Ærligheten cannot hide behind the rights for women as an excuse for her support to such an heinous institution. She might have forgotten but I sure do not, the polls have shown that the large majority of women is pro-life not pro-murder.”
