Rutkowski: Leave Deltaria Alone
Story By: Filip Madrewski
Foreign Minister Jan Rutkowski believes that Deltaria should sort themselves out.
-Brony, Kampania
"Deltaria? Eh, fuck 'em. We've got our own problems." Of all the bizzare statements to come out of the Foreign Minister, this must be a highlight.
In a press conference called earlier today to discuss the arson and vandalism committed against the Valruzian embassy in Deltaria, the Foreign Minister seemed to think that the whole situation was one big joke. Amid questions targeted at his administration's ability to handle and contain the situation, Mr. Rutkowski seemed unable to contain his amusement with the situation, with periodic outbursts of laughter and scoffs at the subject matter. Truth be told however, many of the reporters and personnel at the conferences acted likewise, so perhaps there was just something in the air that day.
Throughout the press conference, Foreign Minister Rutkowski emphasized the need for a moderated approach to Deltaria, stating that while all ties to the nation have been now severed, it may be necessary in the future to repair those ties, and that contingency measures should be in place for that eventuality.
Foreign Minister Jan Rutkowski wrote:This Blue Shirts Movement is only hurting the Deltarian people; it's ironic that they think that they represent the unspoken citizen, when they are destroying the very foundations that the citizen depends on for some form of viability. [...] Once the Deltarians come to their senses, we can come in to help out with the cleanup. However, if their government is replaced with representatives of this terrorist group [the DBSM], we will have no choice but to refuse recognition of that government, and of Deltaria as a nation. [...] It's painful to watch sometimes, but in order to stymie the rising tensions in the nation, we [the Valruzian government] must take a role as observers until some conclusion is reached. Or until some form of attack on Valruzia is made. [...] We will not be threatened by thugs. If they [the DBSM] take the government, we will do everything in our diplomatic power to see that it fails, so that Deltaria can return to a free and righteous rule.
Meanwhile, the Department of Foreign Affairs has offered asylum to any Deltarian residents that wish to flee the ravaging violence in their nation.
