Medinat Department issues new advisory guidelines for Yeudis
November 5394

- Knesset enters final stage of debate in restoring the Yeudi Monarchy, with Aviv Imo Aristocrat-Goldbloom marked as temporary regent

Image

Yishelem, Beiteynu - The recent wins in Beiteynuese diplomacy spanning from the new military alliances with Alduria and Hanzen, the decades in the works partnership with Kalistan, the partnership with Kanjor and the ascension of 3 more states in the MSCO have been the hallmarks of the Aristocrat-Goldbloom Administration in expanding the Yeudi network across continents. Vanuku's entry in the MSCO has even led to the hostilities with Vascania "dying out".

Artania
Despite the soured relations with 2 states in the north on grounds of "untrustworthiness and lack of cooperation", Artania, Keris and Makon are for the most part "green" across the aisle; with the former dominated by the long-term and prosperous alliance with Kasaema and the recent extended ties with Fort William.

Dovani
Excluding the recent mutual defence pact with Hanzen - which led to deterring conflicts in the region successfully due to the deployment of the supranational carrier strike group - Dovani is dominated by the long-term and solid alliances with Lourenne and Dankuk, unchanging. Insofar as the WDU is concerned, the Medinat Department maintains the same policy as the one in Majatra, citing how "state-alliance partnerships" are "unfair" and "counter-productive".

As such, Yishelem will continue to pursue 1-1 relations and deflect to influencers in West Dovani for any needs and requirements.

Seleya
Lodamun's ongoing ratification of the Beiteynuese frameworks came as a slight surprise, considering how the Medinat Department has made no attempts at invigorating bilateral relations in the last 100 years. Presumably, Fort William's military pact with Likatonia and the recent partnership agreement with Kalistan - Lodamun's immediate neighbours - has inspired the Lodamese Government to entertain extending relations with Yishelem in a similar manner; this is however an unconfirmed assumption according to Katerina Sheket. South Seleya is dominated by the increased ties with the Canrillaise.

Rosh Ha'Memshala Sharon Aristocrat-Goldbloom has expressed her "anxiety" towards the lack of enthusiasm by the Medinat Department in negotiating a partnership agreement with Tukarali, a long-time friend of Yeudis. Katerina Sheket has been extensively criticised by the Ramatkal in recent years, as well.

Majatra
A continent united and much of it under a mutual defence pact, unseen in centuries since the MSCO's (then known as MSO) original foundation. Kalopia's recent declaration of neutrality insofar as the MSCO is concerned is yet another factor boosting investor confidence, stability and commerce across the continent.

The Medinat Department has expressed a no-counter position to Malivia's participation in the MSCO as an observant and/or advisory member.

New Right unveils policy agenda: Economic Reforms, Strong Defense, and Religious Representation

Image
Shifra Menahem addressing reporters in Rishon Le Hofesh, Padika

June 1 5395, Yishelem

The New Right-National Renewal is the newest entrant to Beiteynu's political scene. The party is led by Shifra Menahem, who embarked on a career as an economist upon completing her national service. She is well known for her liberal economic views and has stated that her party would espouse similar policies, with a declared focus on reducing the power of trade unions and tax cuts across the board. The party calls for a strong national defence and supports the government's policy of actively engaging with nations across Terra. 

The party claims to offer a voice for orthodox Yeudis whose voices have "not been heard by the mainstream secular discourse". While she and most of the party membership themselves are secular Yeudis, Ms. Menahem has stated that her party would call for a "balance between the interests of secular and religious sections of our society" by allowing for greater freedom for religious communities to determine their own policies when it comes to social issues. The party had a disappointing performance in the last elections, winning just 0.04% of the national vote and falling behind the threshold to win seats in the Knesset. But spokesperson Ezra Azoulay expressed confidence that the New Right is certain to shift the balance of power towards the right in the nation, with polls now indicating that the party might enter the Knesset if elections were held today. In terms of collaboration, the party notes its policy alignment with the Hashmal Atsmaihim and has shown a desire to work with the party in the Knesset on an array of issues.

Knesset enters final stretch in restoring the Yeudi Monarchy
August 5395

Image

Yishelem, Beiteynu - Almost a decade under debate, claimed 2 centuries in the works and theorised 3000 years in the making, the Knesset has entered the final stretch in restoring the House of Elior to the Throne of Yishelem, transforming the legend into reality. The Beiteynuese Law Act of 5399 will see Princess Aviv Imo Aristocrat-Goldbloom of the mythical House of Elior - the Yeudi "commoner" royalty, wife of Prince Edward of the historic Luthorian House of Orange-Villayn (the Armstead presumably to be dropped), to initially hold the crown as steward of the monarchy.

With the noticeable fiction playing out in Beiteynuese media, the legends of Elior and the trappings of monarchism seem to have grasped the imaginations of different generations, some of them calling it "the ending chapter" to "an emergence era of Yeudis", after thousands of years in obscurity.

It seems the road is steadily being paved for the re-ascension of Elior's bloodline with the ultimate crowning of none other that Aviv Imo's son.

Elias Ishmael. Elias Ishmael IV. The one to sit again on the Throne of Yishelem.

Supranational naval exercise concludes in the Artanian Sea
November 5395

Image

Himmelshtern, Beiteynu - The Naval Chief of the Beiteynuese Naval Command was joined by Kavin Mahorit of the Kohav, the Minister of Defence himself, Agresiv Difens and naval officers from Kundrati, Luthori, Alduria and Lourenne in a press conference this morning to celebrate the conclusion of the Reshout Naval Exercise, a multi-stage supranational initiative in multiple regions spanning Beiteynu, the Sea of Lost Souls in southeast Majatra and the Artanian Sea.

Originally planned in 5368, the project fell victim to extended delays and logistical problems stemming from the lack of combat experience, the unprecedented scale of the exercise in Beiteynuese history and the adhoc formation of the Hanzenese CSG under the structure of the Zaar Fleets years later. As the Beiteynuese Naval Command scrambled to coordinate and patch the inconsistencies, the combined expertise of Kundrati, Luthori, Alduria and Lourenne did contribute extensively to finally undertaking the initiative, albeit spanning across the years.

Agresiv Difens, the Minister of Defence, made the following statement:

The conclusion of this naval exercise is a Yeudi statement that the world no longer reflects its past hegemonic alliances.


As parts of this exercise were in close proximity to Malivia and Likatonia, it is presumed that there will be some form of response from respective governments, albeit none of the officials confirming nor denying any coordination when asked by the media.

The recent Dolgavan-Luthorian tensions may also be impacted by this initiative, as the geopolitical landscape continues to shift in the north.

Homeland defence with Kundrati, Luthori and Lourenne
The first stage of the exercise involved the Hofesh Fleet and the Nimshal Carrier Strike Group, which led a series of incursion and invasion exercises while the Kundrati naval forces joined up with both the Second Royal Fleet of Lourenne stationed in Himmelshtern and Beiteynuese defensive flotillas across the northwest with the Lekavot Fleet to "defend the homeland" from the northward moving forces in Rishon Le Hofesh.

Concluding the homeland part of the exercise, the Second Royal Fleet, Kundrati forces and the Lekavot fleet were led by the Hofesh Fleet's Nimshal Carrier Strike Group to join up with the 4 destroyers of the Luthorian 6th Flotilla, 1 frigate from the 5th and 2 submarines from the 2nd Submarine Squadron currently deployed and stationed in the north bank. The goal was to stop the blockade performed by the Yeudi Fleet's Reshout Carrier Strike Group and the infamous 4th Flotilla, as the force moved towards the north bank from the Migrant's Pass to disrupt maritime commerce.

The Naval Chief of the Beiteynuese Naval Command stated the following:

Yishelem's call to its allies in the defence of the homeland has been met with fervour and loyalty from our allies, who took part in an extended coastline exercise and rose up to the challenge in spectacular grace; the level of coordination has been impressive. The Beiteynuese navy looks forward to continued military cooperation, especially as Dankuk, Alduria and Hanzen have expressed an interest in joining up the supranational essence of the defence of our homeland.


When asked whether the blockade was "defeated", he chuckled, adding:

It wasn't. The Reshout Carrier Strike Group and the 4th Flotilla of the Yeudi Fleet have almost 2 centuries of combat expertise and experience in the region, since the times of the 1st Malivian Crisis. Their knowledge of these waters is unparalleled.

However, the gains and learnings for Kundrati, Luthori, Lourenne and the Hofesh Fleet's Nimshal Carrier Strike Group were significant.


MSCO and the Majatran Sea
Although initially planned to include MSCO naval forces in the Migrant's Pass and the Majatran Sea, the recent stabilisation efforts in the continent including but not limited to the decrease of military presence in the Migrant's Pass and the diminishment of Beiteynu's participation in MSG 3 in the southwest under Zardugal, the plans were scrambled to avoid creating unnecessary adversary tension with any member states; especially as Solentia has chosen to withdraw, once again.

Kavin Mahorit of the Kohav had the following to state about the MSCO and the Majatran Sea:

It was our intention to perform a battle group in the Majatran Sea with Deltaria and Cildania, as both our homeland carrier strike groups from the Hofesh Fleet and the Yeudi Fleet would meet up with the Lourennais CSG south of Cildania.

However, out of respect to the organisation and member states, considering no participation interest was declared, we can confirm no such plans took place.

Instead, the 3 CSGs met up in the South Ocean and traversed to the Artanian Sea directly, for the final stage.


The Beiteynuese Naval Command will continue granting docking rights to MSCO member states traversing the continent.

Sea of Lost Souls with Alduria, Lourenne and Istalia
In another change of the original plans considering the addition of Alduria to Beiteynu's network of military allies, the incursion in the Sea of Lost Souls between the southeast tip of Majatra in Istalia and the southwest point in Seleya with Alduria was led by the newly founded Lourennais Fifth Royal Fleet, established in 5383, expanded shortly afterwards with the deployment of a Zaar Fleet in Alduria under Aldurian and Lourennais command.

As both of Beiteynu's foreign deployments in Istalia and Alduria are under the structure of the Zaar Fleets and thus under the direct command and supervision of command structures of host nations, our navy's involvement was entirely as a follower, focused on training Aldurian officers in intelligence and reconnaissance.

Artanian Sea with Kundrati, Luthori and Lourenne under a Carrier Battle Group
In concluding the multi-stage supranational exercise, the Nimshal Carrier Strike Group and the Reshout Carrier Strike Group met up with the Lourennais CSG in the South Ocean to traverse the long waters to the Artanian Sea. The Carrier Battle Group of more than 25 warships and led by 3 Queen Isabelle aircraft carrier met up with most of Kundrati's naval forces south of the island of the Etxea, which were joined by the Luthorian 4th and 6th Flotillas.

The massive CBG of more than 60 warships undertook a series of anti-blockade and anti-piracy manoeuvres in the Artanian Sea in what has been cited as a "flexing of allied muscles" by military experts, especially highlighting the steady regional dominance by Fort William since 5386 with Likatonia.

The CBG "parked" in the island of Etxea for a soccer tournament, which Luthori won after an "unfair" red card saw the Yeudi goalkeeper removed.

"Democracy at its highest", says Ramatkal
February 5396

Image

Yishelem, Beiteynu - The return of the Beiteynuese People's Alliance - notoriously known as BPA - did not go unnoticed, marking 6 active entities; party officials re-registered the organisation with the Beiteynuese Electoral Authority earlier last month. BPA's return is coupled by the foundation of Otzma Yehudit, a party with unknown affiliations and positions, at present, though sources with the MOIA hinted that the OY considered calling for early elections in the Knesset.

The landscape now counts the BPA and MH on the left and also historically aligned in recent decades and the HA and NR on the right, with MCR - still headless - and OY presumably sitting either on the center or an unknown axis, for the time being.

Ramatkal Nefariouiem and head of Hashmal Atsmaihim stated that the Yemin Hadash - Hithadshut Leumit (NR) is a likely candidate for the HA to align with, considering how both parties are pro-business and avid supporters of national defence and a small government, 3 of the most important principles of the Ramatkal's party itself. He commented that HA is open to backing NR's candidacy, but confirmed no affiliations at present.

In overview, all parties seem to be in favour of restoring the Yeudi Monarchy, but time will only tell, as the Knesset prepares to submit BEILACT/5399.

The upcoming extended overhaul in Beiteynuese governance will most likely be complimented by new public appointments.

Government extends its condolences for the 210 souls lost in Trigunia
April 5396

- "There is a cold war behind the curtains", states the Medinat Department in response to global armament efforts, Beiteynuese included

Yishelem, Beiteynu - The Beiteynuese people are not strangers to civil aviation accidents, although certainly not at the scale reported by the Trigunian media concerning the crash of Nebo Tu-204SM shortly after taking off from Rodshyadam International Airport, costing the lives of 210 souls on board. "Tragedy transcends petty differences", was the statement of Katerina Sheket, the Head of the Medinat Department; "the Trigunian people are in our minds".

Ramatkal (HOG) Nefariouiem Aristocrat extended the Beiteynuese Government's condolences to Trigunia:

Shock and sadness are the feelings of the Beiteynuese people and Yeudis all over the world, as we all witness a tragedy of significant proportions. Our hearts and minds go to the families of the 210 people lost in the face of life's unwavering cruelty.

The Beiteynuese Government extends its dearest condolences and sympathies to the Trigunian people.


Civil aviation personnel across the country observed a 5 minute silence in honour of the fallen.

Born to be King; the life of young Elias Ishmael
April 5397

Image

Sholemberg, Beiteynu - Born in Sholemberg on a humid afternoon on May 31st, young Elias Ishmael's life has been captured by media in an endless barrage and has captivated the imaginations of millions of Yeudis of all ages. Son of Prince Edward of Luthori and Aviv Imo of Beiteynu, Elias Ishmael was born to be king; an essential mix of Yeudi "commoner" and Luthorian noble royalty, the youngster represents the "best of both worlds" according to the Beiteynuese, as talk show hosts and gossip magazines scramble to ask "other commoners" what they think of the kid on a weekly basis.

Dreamy, star gazed eyes across all ages and genders usually enter the screen, moments before their faces blush, answering talk show questions in the most awkward of manners; everyone turns into mush and the kid from inside jumps out, smiling innocently and being unable to sound coherent.

Elias Ishmael has been growing up watching Orange Junior and his favourite show, Yeudeuy, making the cartoon series even more popular; parents are watching the show and other similar programs of Luthorian broadcasting origin eagerly with their kids, captivated by the stories of kings, queens, defenders and protectors and the Yeudi Heritage. The rise of the legend that is the House of Elior, the 8 Gems and the Yeudi Crown; all artefacts projected onto Elias Ishmael, as the Knesset continues to debate the restoration of the Yeudi Monarchy at the turn of the century, with his mother to care for the Throne of Yishelem.

Elias Ishmael speaks fluent Canrillaise and is particularly fond of Dundorfian chocolate, although still undecided on the chocolate hummus delicacy. Just last week, a paparazzi captured the youngster at his private school in Sholemberg holding a pretzel and what seemed like a cup of Ahmadi coffee, blowing up social media.

As he enters adolescence, it seems that Elias Ishmael's life will become even more of a public matter, as an entire race holds its breath.

Satellite network for global reconnaissance goes live
April 5397

Image

Amshinov, Beiteynu - The MOD has confirmed that Istalia, Kundrati, Dankuk, Pontesi, Alduria, Hanzen, Luthori and Lourenne have all been granted access to the Allink via the Lavian's command center located in the North Bank. The Allink is a satellite network for military and intelligence use, composed of Ofeq reconnaissance satellites manufactured by Kadenite, launched almost a decade ago. Short for "Allied Link" and humorously dubbed in social media as the "All Link" as a jaunt to Beiteynuese intelligence tactics, which have been questionable in the past, the initiative is an attempt by Yishelem to restore a sense of "collective intelligence sharing" amongst Beiteynu and its allies, presumably inspired by the now defunct Intelligence Pact of the 53rd century.

The launching of Shavit rockets from the shores of the Yeladim Lake southeast of the city has been a frequent phenonemon over the past years ever since the Lavian's foundation 2 decades ago. Since then, states such as Lourenne, Hutori and Dolgava have followed suit in what analysts have been citing as a "space race for intelligence", with nations and alliances scrambling to reinvigorate their foothold on space hardware as Yeudis leverage yet another vehicle for spying.

When asked about the stance of the Beiteynuese Government towards the apparently aggressive intelligence gathering by Dorvik in Etxea hinted in Dorvish media, MOD Agresiv Difens chuckled absent minded, blurting out a "thanks for watching!" before entering the MOD's building in Yishelem.

Beiteynu's Political Landscape Shifts: New Right and Hashmal Atsmaihim Forge Election Alliance

Image
Shifra Menahem at a rally in Arbetheym, Kokun

July 1, 5397, Yishelem

The Hashmal Atsmaihim (HA) and Yemin Hadash-Hithadshut Leumit (NR) parties have officially announced the formation of an electoral alliance between them ahead of the upcoming elections. As per the agreement, the New Right would endorse the HA in the upcoming elections for Prime Minister and the two parties would work together on their common agenda with regards to promoting a strong national defence, limiting the size of the government, and enacting reforms to stimulate private sector innovation and economic growth in Beiteynu.

While the leadership of both the HA and NR had expressed their alignment with each other and a willingness to reach an electoral agreement in the past, the creation of this alliance just ahead of the elections constitutes a major development in Beiteynu's political scene and is widely expected to galvanize voters on the right of the political spectrum. However, in light of Labour's continued dominance and the re-establishment of the Progressive Beiteynuese People's Alliance, it remains to be seen whether this momentum could actually translate into a majority in the Knesset as hoped for by Shifra Menahem in a rally today. Whatever the result, it is widely expected that the alliance will push for legislation aligning with their platform in the next session of the Knesset and work closely to move the political discourse in the nation further to the right.
