DAF names permanent NC cadre
October, 4438
Haldor, Kordusia - Acting State Chancellor Jost Papas and President Joachim Gideon von Rohr-Mauss agreed with the proposal by the Ministry of Defense and Supreme General Staff. Composed by Minister of Defense and Inspector-General Florian Maria zu Völksau-Heusmann the new directive forms a cadre of officers focused on Northern Council joint operations. The new department of the Supreme General Staff will be focused entirely on the Northern Council and the Northern Council Battlegroup and will function almost as a mini Supreme General Staff within itself.
The first slated Chief of the Northern Defense Department will be Admiral Klaus Wilhelm von Motha-Elser who will take over as the leading officer of the new department. His immediate deputy will be Major General (Air Force) Ekkehard Marre. Operationally the units in the Battlegroup will be commanded by Lieutenant General August Kessler.
The permanent attachment to the Northern Council will further enhance Dorvish cooperation with the Northern Council; it’s also likely that Admiral Klaus Wilhelm von Motha-Elser will be named as the NCs chief of joint defense staff which will provide Dorvik with some much needed experience in strategic and tactical leadership in the multinational field. The new cadre of officers also includes operational expert Admiral Reineke von Rotemburg who serves as an officer currently attached to the Marine Warfare Department; the primary operational branch of the Dorvish Navy.
In a surprising turn, the Alorian government has offered a repeal of state-sponsored genocide and has offered an apology for a radical, illegal governments actions. President von Rohr-Mauss has offered his cooperation with Aloria to root out those criminals who conduct this genocide. “We will watch these events closely.”
In perhaps his most strongly worded statement was the condemnation of Vanuku planning to deploy nuclear capable bombers in Dankuk. The President dismissed the sabre rattling of Vanuku and stated that “These recent developments are incredibly detrimental to world peace. If the Vanukuese government deployed nuclear capable bombers in Dankuk it presents a series of problems. While the Majatran Union of Nations has opposed or not even entertained the Northern Council in realm of face-to-face meetings, it’s not off the table. We know very clearly that Vanuku has no qualms about using nuclear weapons and any peace loving nation, NC or not should be worried about their instability when it comes to using nuclear arms. The deployment of conventional weapons is regardless worrying but the deployment of nuclear weapons is even more troubling and could run contrary to world peace efforts.”
The President however offered Haldor as an intermediate between the Northern Council and Vanuku, not necessarily the MUN itself. “Vanuku and Dorvik do have a special relationship that has dwindled for sometime. Whenever Vanuku wants to have a discussion the Dorvish government will facilitate in the efforts of peace and security.” The President ended his press conference shorty after a question and answer period.
