Vojislav Krkljus

Image
Foreign Affairs Minister of Telamon

Mr Krkljus will come to Lodamun the following year on discussing matters with the "greatest friend of Telamon", as Krkljus says for the Lodamese Union. However, a Parliament consensus was made that Krkljus can come, but he received the following reply from the current Prime Minister:
Stay the fuck out of Lodamun.

Sincerely,

John Hancock,
Prime Minister of the Union

Krkljus says he is not afraid, and adds that the Prime Minister seat will soon be occupied with another man. Krkljus invites all the Lodamese parties to announce whether or not they want to take part in discussing current issues and planning future treaties.

(OOC: All the Lodamese parties are welcome to post on this subject)

Krkljus Arrives!

The day finally arrived when Vojislav Krkljus arrived in the Lodamese Union. In the upper picture he can be seen in Port Andalay after his arrival by a ship. No, he is not alone. Together with him are some RRP officials and Telamonian Government officials. Mr Nikola Mandaric insisted on going with Krkljus, as he quite clearly remembers his last visits to Lodamun: "A marvelous country, never stopped amazing me." Here with him is also the former Foreign Affairs minister Ljubomir Adamovic (Adamovic was FA minster when Krkljus was the President of the nation), quite an expert on Lodamun. His FA experience is very rich, and he considers Lodamun one of the best countries he has ever been to: "The people were always uniting to make the better end out of the situation. Very very peaceful and wise people the Lodamunians are. It is a shame what Likatonian aggressors were doing to Lodamun in many points in history. But, the people these days are getting pretty divided, not just here, but also back home in Telamon. Unite or fall, that's what I would say."

Before meeting Mrs Patricia K. Johnson, Mr Theodor Forest, the Chairman of the Liberal Party's office in Andalay, greeted Krkljus on his arrival to Andalay. Krkljus' whole "crew" was accommodated, and soon the talks began. The press has not yet heard anything about their talks yet, but there is a rumor that Krkljus said while passing the building of the Government of the Lodamese Union: "Pity I cannot go to this building, I am on a mission of peace, but it only sounds that one part of the Lodamese Union wants peace and good relations with Telamon." We are yet to find out more news, so stay tuned to hear the results of the first Telamon-Lodamun talks.

Press questioning Krkljus

Vojislav Krkljus being questioned by the press

Q: Mr. Krkljus, we can obviously see that the writings of some Lodamese newspapers are false, the ones concerning your arrest. We can see you here, standing in front of us. What are your impressions on this?
A: That is what the current Government want, I guess. But, I am here to discuss matters of peace not with them, but with the Liberal Party whose officials invited me. If not all want peace, not all shall get it. But, I have absolutely not been arrested, neither will I.
Q: Mr. Krkljus, has there been any talk about the Anti-"Greater Likatonia" dealings?
A: No, not yet, that is what I will discuss with the heads of the Liberal Party.
Q: Mr. Krkljus, how long will you stay in Lodamun?
A: I will stay until I decide to leave of course. Once I am here, I will do all that is currently needed and then go to my dear Telamon

Nikola Mandaric, the creator of the Telamonian Modern Infrastructure & Transport system

Nikola Mandaric met in Port Andalay with the Liberal Party's Infrastructure and Transport Expert. He explained which system the Lodamese Union currently uses, and made parallels with the Telamonian one. Mandaric is known as the creator of modern-day IT system, which is currently being continued by Stefan Barna, also an RRP member. "I found out a new technique of bridge-making, making it both economical and highly practical. Lodamun had the best IT system in the Northern Hemisphere but it is currently not in its full glory. I found out this was because of the current IT minister."

Krkljus Arrested outside Andalay Palace


Image

PORT ANDALAY, ANDALAY (LBC) -- Telamon's Foreign Minister miscalculated as he strolled outside Andalay Palace, home of Divine Majesty Diggory, followed by international media. Footage obtained by the Lodamese Broadcasting Corporation shows Vojislav Krkljus saying "Pity I cannot go to this building, I am on a mission of peace..." when Royal Guards approached and placed him under arrest for trespassing. Charles J. Moody, Commander of the Royal Guards, said charges of trespassing were dropped, but that Mr. Krkljus will be detained for further questioning while the Justice Ministry considers charges of espionage and conducting diplomacy without credentials.


Krkljus Released and Deported!


Port Andalay, Lodamun - Foreign Minister John Stevenson and Justice Minister Lee Johnson have agreed to release Foreign Minister of Tealmon, Krkljus, and he has been deported and banned from Lodamun and carrying out any further Diplomatic Relations with the Divine Majesties Government of the Lodamese Union.

The Foreign Minister, John Stevenson, has now issued a statement that all Diplomatic discussions will take place between the President of Telamon until a time when they have a new Foreign Minister.

Mr. Krkljus greeted by Chairman Forest upon arrival. Talks are short but deemed fruitful so far

Days before his arrival, Mr. Krkljus was informed by his staff that he wasn't going to be able to use his usual airplane when visiting Lodamun. Mr. Krkljus' assistant received special instructions from the Liberal Party Chairman's Office to fly on a jet chartered by the Liberal Party. This, in part, do to the fact that the visit was deemed unofficial and secret.

Even though controversy arose after Mr. Krkljus' visit was announced by the Liberal Party, the party leaders stood steadfast and did not allow the opposition and cabinet members to block Mr. Krkljus's visit. However, no one knew when or wheere Mr. Krkljus was going to arrive with the exception of Chairman Johnson and her most trusted staff members. Even though no one was told about when Mr. Krkljus was going to visit, the Chairman's staff put a lot of effort to make sure everyone involved in the discussions would have a clear schedule. This done in the utmost secrecy. This visit was not only essential for the relations between Telamon and Lodamun, it was also the first visit by a Telamese official in decades. Such lapse in direct communication had not been seen since the late 27th century, early 28th century.

Two days after the visit by Mr. Krkljus was announced, government officials issued a memorandum to all airport officials asking for the immediate detainment of Mr. Krkljus upon his arrival. This memorandum was to be distributed throughout all the airports of the country.

At Grimes Airport, a man sat behind his desk admiring the framed photos on his desk. His secretary suddenly brings him back to reality through the intercom.

"Mr. Grimes, your two o'clock appointment is here to see you" said the secretary.
"Let him in" said Mr. Grimes.

The two men exchanged handshakes.

"Mr. Grimes, I'll get right to it. You will be receiving this memo tomorrow morning. Can you make it disappear?" said the unknown man.
"Well, that's going to be a bit difficult but anything can be done" said Mr. Grimes.
"I don't care what has to be done. I just need your word that this person will pass freely through your airport" said the mysterious man.
"I have much admiration for Mrs. Johnson and I am grateful what she has done for me. We have known each other for...what...thirty years. So I'll make sure this person get through this airport unnoticed" said Mr. Grimes.
"Mr. Grimes, you can be assured that Mrs. Johnson won't forget this and you will receive just compensation for your hard work. So, do you need a new runaway?" joked the man.



The day the secret would be revealed came. Mr. Krkljus was greeted in the airport's main lobby by Chairman Forest, Regional Chairman of Andalay, and his staff.

Chairman Forest was most delighted after being offered such grandiose opportunity. He was a staunch internationalist, after all.

Mr. Forest and his staff briefly exchanged handshakes and pleasantries with Mr. Krkljus and his staff. Soon after, they were all instructed by the security detail to board the limousine waiting outside. This limousine was specially designed for the personal use of the National Chairman and great men and women had sat inside before. Such history gave it the best of illusions to an unsuspecting visitor though the machine itself was in splendid form.

The press was kept a few dozens feet away. Though they were allowed to take pictures, no questions were answered. Press members were vetted weeks before and were asked to sign a confidentiality agreement stating that anything recorded during Mr. Krkljus visit would be published after he left. The Liberal Party's vetting process had been known for decades to be the most rigorous in the country. All the reporters were well known and would do anything for juicy story.

Several decoy cars and limousines accompanied the caravan and the security personnel made sure that no one would be able to detect where Mr. Krkljus was traveling.

In the limousine, Chairman Forest and Mr. Krkljus had a little more time to speak their minds freely. Mr. Forest quickly explained to Mr. Krkljus that the situation in Lodamun was difficult. Political strife had stricken the nation for decades now and that Parliament remains very divided. He mentioned that though the Liberal Party had a clear favorability by the people, the results did not show so. He even hinted at a possibility of election fraud though he did not mention so directly.

Before proceeding to the National Headquarters of the Liberal Party, two scheduled stops were made.

The first was at the Grand Plaza. The Grand Plaza houses the Parliament's building, the Independence statue, and several other important historical locations and museums. The plaza also housed several churches. Most edifices at the plaza dates back to the 21st century.

Security was tight, to say the least. The security personnel of the Liberal Party established very strict perimeters around these such important men and women. However, both Mr. Forest and Mr. Krkljus took the time to reach to those walking by and greeting them. Reporters were allowed to follow them around but were required to keep a certain distance. More than twenty reporters crowded around these men and it certainly made for an interesting sight.

Soon after exiting the limousine, Mr. Forest courteously provided a tour for Mr. Krkljus. They strolled around the Plaza for a couple of minutes and even though the commotion to the sight of such important figure (Mr. Krkljus) was certainly great, they made their way to the step of Parliament. Mr. Forest explained to Mr. Krkljus:

"This is where we make enemies, Mr. Krkljus" he chuckled. "This building you see here has been the location of Parliament for many, many years. Everyday, people come and go but at the end, nothing is done for our people. This is the building where those who decided to abolish the Republic work. But fortunately for the people of Lodamun, this building also houses the offices of good men and women who have dedicated their lives to improve the lives of our citizens. It is a shame we don't have more people like them. We did once and everything went smoothly and our country prospered and our people prospered. But now, all of that is gone. It is very sad."

The two men stood there exchanging words while the reporters took pictures and recorded them with gigantic cameras which emanated a distinctive amount of light. Though uncomfortable, it was beneficial as night was setting in at Port Andalay.

Soon after, both men and their respective staff and other invitees walked towards the Independence Statue. To this, Mr. Forest only said: "Mr. Krkljus, this is the most important place for Lodamun. Here we have cried for our dead brothers and sisters, here we celebrated our victories. Nothing will ever surpass the significance of this monument."

Mr. Forest then proceeded to show Mr. Krkljus and those accompanying the Remembrance Book. This massive book allowed all the visitors to sign their name to express their respect to those who have fallen defending Lodamun's freedom and way of life.

By the time Mr. Krkljus was able to enter the Orthodox Church of St. Djordje, night had set its dark coat over the sky. After nearly five minutes at the church, Mr. Krkljus, his staff, and the other visitors each walked to their respective car/limousine and headed to the second scheduled stop: The former Presidential Palace.

The caravan reached the Palace by 6:30pm. Everyone stepped out, closely guarded by the Liberal Party's security personnel (Mr. Krkljus had been asked by Chairman Johnson not to come with his security detail given the situation surrounding his visit---not a state visit); reporters followed every step closely behind.

While all these was going on, the Liberal Party's Headquarters issued no statement announcing the arrival of Mr. Krkljus.

Mr. Forest gave the Foreign Affairs Minister a rather lengthy explanation of the Palace's past and present history. Chairman Forest was widely regarded as one of the most knowledgeable historians of the Andalay Republic.

While both men walked side by side, Mr. Krkljus was recorded saying: "Pity I cannot go to this building, I am on a mission of peace, but it only sounds that one part of the Lodamese Union wants peace and good relations with Telamon."

After walking around the Palace for a few minutes both men were instructed to step in their vehicles to head to the Liberal Party's headquarters. Shortly after stepping into their limousine, Mr. Forest asked Mr. Krkljus: "So, what did you think of the Palace very powerful men and women once called "home"?

While the caravan made its way to the National Headquarters of the Liberal Party, reporters gathered in the news room awaiting for a brief statement by the Special Assistant to the National Chairman for Media Relation, Ms. Jean Callaway.

After confirmation of the caravan's departure from the Palace, Ms. Callaway entered the news room and issued a brief statement and answered a couple of questions.

"Thank you for being here, ladies and gentlemen. OK, here's the schedule we have so far. Please, keep in mind that this is not a completed schedule and as soon as we have more information, we will definitely let you know.

Today, Mr. Krkljus will meet with Mrs. Johnson briefly and then both will eat dinner. Tomorrow, Mr. Krkljus will meet with Mrs. Johnson, former Finance Minister Rose Kynes, and former Chairman Gregory Kynes II for the beginning of the discussions. While we do not have a set topic to discuss, the Chairman as assured me that everything pertinent will be discussed while Mr. Krkljus is visiting our country but the discussion will clearly focus on Telamon relationship with Lodamun.

Several other officials from the party will meet with the other visitors to hold similar discussions.

That's all I have for now. I will now take two questions."

George Hulls from LCN (Lodamese Cable News): "Ms. Callaway, is Minister Krkljus going to receive protection from the Liberal Party's security personnel while visiting the country?"

Ms. Callaway: "As you have said before: Minister Krkljus will receive the best protection possible. I will remind you that the men and women coordinating our security served on various Presidential details?"

Kyle Verone: "Does the Chairman intend to reach any deal with Minister Krkljus?"

Ms. Callaway: "Obviously, I can't foresee the results of this discussions. What I can tell you is that our goal here is to improve our relations with Telamon and provide a forum for discussion. Thank you all."

All the reporters in the news room were asked before the start of the brief news conference to give up all means of communication and to sign the same confidentiality agreement as the other reporters accompanying Mr. Krkljus and his staff. Reporters in the news room were not allowed to leave until the caravan arrived at the Head quarters.

Chairman Johnson awaited in her office for the arrival of Mr. Krkljus. She was patiently reviewing the last draft for her major speech the next day. During this major gathering sponsored by the Liberal Party, several keynote speakers were making an appearance, including former Finance Minister, Ms. Rose Kynes, and former Defense Minister, Mr. Matt Lincoln. After the speech, she would head out to Telamon to continue the talks with the Foreign Affairs Minister from Telamon.


(OOC: I will proceed to the end but we can RP the actual discussions later)


After the discussions ended, Mr. Krkljus was escorted by the security personnel to the roof of the massive 30 story building, where a helicopter awaited. The helicopter took Mr. Krkljus to Grimes Airport, where he boarded a different chartered plane (for security purposes) back to Telamon. Such move turned out to be very effective as police had already detained the pilot of the other plane and made access to said plane impossible.

Mr. Krkljus reached Telamon safely but certainly aware of the danger he had just escaped.
Fighting for the people, supported by the people.

"Best for Telamon and Lodamun: Our parties!"

Image
Krkjus interviewed by press

"We have had long and thorough talks. If you must know, we discussed several world issues: Greater Likatonia and Monarchism, and several local issues: Monarchism in Lodamun and the Telamon-Lodamun Relationships. We have concluded that Greater Likatonia still remains a threat to world peace, but it is more passive than usual. I have also heard that the Lodamun Monarch does not have finished high school, which explains a lot of his acts. Personally, my motto is "For God, King and Nation!", and I am for establishing Adamovics, the only living nobility family, as Telamonian Kingship. But, from case to case, I believe. And we have concluded that the Telamon-Lodamun relations which were present in the past few ages, are definitely several times better than now. We have come to it that I couldn't come official in Lodamun with the words "Stay the fuck out of Lodamun". The current Government of Lodamun, before my visit, had the same level of respect for Telamon (and may be other nations) after my visit to the Liberal Party -- disrespect. At my letter of asking official approval from the Government of Lodamun (written with my best words and wishes) I get as a responce a denying sentence with "fuck" in it. It is the current 3 parties in their Government that first destroyed the relations which the Liberal Party maintained for so long. And, my Government allies make a coalition without me because of the blackmailer whose first word said as a baby was "fuck". I am horrified. So -- our conclusion is that the Rightful Radical Party and the Liberal Party are the best combination for optimal Telamon-Lodamun relations.

Onward Lodamun! Onward Telamon! Onward The Liberal Party!"
