Continued fractures within the DVB prompt new inter-party alliance
September 4963
Haldor, Greater Kordusia - Representatives have gathered in Haldor to discuss the future of "The People's Movement" (Dundorfian: Die Volksbewegung) commonly called the "DVB" at the behest of senior party officials and leaders. This has lead my Dorvish political spectators to suggest that the DVB might be gearing up for a change. This comes after internal sources leaked to the Dorvish press that prominent young leaders within the DVB such as Miktarian Oberpräsident Ansgar Hans von Lÿndow-Sennhein and Joachim Ullmann, a Provincial Councilor from Greater Kordusia, have called for the current leadership of the Dorvish Republic and the DVB to step down and make way for a younger, more active network of leaders. According to internal reports Lÿndow-Sennhein and Ullmann have formed a party group known as the Blue-White-Black Alliance (Dundorfian: Blau-Weiß-Schwarz-Allianz) which brings together a number of factions within the DVB including Lÿndow-Sennhein and Ullmann's own Dorvish Conservative League faction that has attracted the membership of younger, more ambitious politicians. This has been joined by a number of nobles who serve in various government positions and non-government positions who have called for a greater role of the Dorvish Republic in both regional and international affairs, a number of them calling on the Dorvish government to continue rapprochement with the new Dundorfian government which has once again become somewhat stable compared to previous years; a relationship that has been icy over various decades. In the wake of the calls for action since last month President Vahlen noted that the Dundorfian-Dorvish defense cooperation has continued in the wake of an arms deal that prompted the development a of new variant of the feared Leopard 2 Dorvish main battle tank.
