GOVERNMENT ISSUES STERN WARNING FOLLOWING BIRAT UNREST

VILANJA - East Chanchajillan military officials have warned against increased violence in the nation of Birat, warning that any overflow of violence into either East Chanchajilla or neighboring Avergnon would be met with stern repercussions. Additionally, President Boer is strongly condemning Estoca military buildup and North Timerian intervention, as worries of troop mobilization mount and Timerian air force fighters arrive in Estoca.

Following the conclusion of combat operations in West Chanchajilla, Ivora's ultimate surrender and the death of Frederick Armbar in a multi-national operation, East Chanchajillan and Parabocan troops established operations to start mopping up resistance from Armbar regime loyalists in West Chanchajilla.

There was a perception of resistance and rebel fighters being the main security threat to East Chanchajilla for the coming months and years, but now East Chanchajillan government officials believe that Estocan government's rampant escalation in rhetoric, along with Timeria's deployment to a nation fraught with aggressive and arrogant historical aggression towards the East and it's allies (like Paraboca, Zamastan, Avergnon, and others), is now the newest national security threat.

East Chanchajillan President Gideon Boer warns against Estocan and Timerian buildup after Birat tensions

President Boer has stated that the tensions and unrest in Birat is being perpetuated by foreign intervention, and the best thing to do is let the situation unfold as it occurs. "We cannot be the tenders and manipulators of fate," Boer stated, "and Birat is folding into theirs. Estoca and Timeria should stand down - what happens in Birat happens in Birat and affects the nations around it. East Chanchajilla and Avergnon have the most at stake, not Estoca. We urge that Estoca and Timeria stand down, because their intervention will throw chaos into an already chaotic situation."

Boer went on to state that should Estoca and Timeria try to intervene in Birat, it should be noted that they would be travelling through Avergnonian or East Chanchajillan territory, which essentially constitutes an international breach of territory and an illegal military movement through sovereign lands.

"Basic geography and political compassing," Boer stated, "they have to be stupid to not recognize that. The Coalition of Crown Albatross must ensure no encroachments to our territory is made, and the Chanchajillan government will ensure that we will never give permission to the Estocans to send military in any form through ours."
