Government Response to the West Majatran War
After receiving a wave of petitions from various citizens of Barmenian over the issue of the current war between the nations of Zardugal and Cobura, the Madjlis (Assembly) has decided to announce the government's position on the war and the actions the government shall take.
The national government of the Krsyiji Brmék Onsmifrndé Knstat has decided that Zardugal's acts of imperialism are reprehensible. Due this decision, the national government has decided to cut off diplomatic ties with Zardugal.
Furthermore, a petition has been swirling around over the past few months within the military and various veterans organizations calling for the formation of a volunteer force to be sent to the nation of Cobura. The government has decided to heed these requests and has decided to sponsor this force. Thus, the government has decided to formally establish the 1st Red Volunteer Brigade, which shall consist of 3,523 volunteer soldiers from the Barmenian military. This volunteer force shall also be backed by a direct contribution to the war effort worth 10,000,000,000 BAR.
Should these be accepted, the Brigade shall be put under the direct control of Cobura's military to ensure maximum efficiency in the war and with the expectation that the funds shall be used for the war directly.
