President Kochenkov: "We support Kivonia."

Rodshyadam - President Kochenkov noted his support for General Augustin Volkhardt and the Kivonian government against the efforts of the Telamonese government which are being lead by traitors to the nation. The President was joined by the Foreign Minister as well as other officials and when members of the press asked if Trigunia would support Kivonia, the President simply stated that it was something that was being considered. A notable build-up of Trigunian Airborne Troops as well increased number of military attaches has been noticed about the Kivonian embassy, prompting some to believe that the Trigunian government is ramping up support for the Kivonian government. While the two governments have largely avoided public discussion and large-scale state visits, it is likely that in the rise of tensions that the Trigunian might make an overt public appearance to rebuke Hutori, a geopolitical enemy in the region. The Trigunian Armed Forces over the past several years have conducted a number of military-related exercises, including the dispatching of the South Ocean Fleet to Vanuku for a large-scale naval exercise. The Trigunian Naval Infantry have also conducted bi-monthly amphibious assault exercises across Trigunia, including in the frigid north of Lesnov. The Trigunian Naval Infantry, often known by their acronym of MPT in Rodshyan, have taken a leading role in the military planning of Trigunia over the past several years, the MPT and the VDV (the Trigunian Airborne Forces) have shared the status of favored for expeditionary missions across the globe.

While the Trigunian Ministry of Defense and General Staff work to combat problems of modernization in the Ground Forces, the Navy, Aerospace Forces as well as the Special Operations Command have worked to modernize far faster. It is likely that in the event of a war or conflict it would largely come down to the navy, aerospace forces as well as the various "special forces" of the Trigunian Armed Forces.

Trigunian FM lambasts Likatonia
July 4760

The Bashnya, Rodshyadam - Leading members of the State Duma and the Foreign Minister Nikodim Chukchov condemned the aggressive actions of Likatonia and the nascent "National Terran Alliance" in the area of the Maddog Ocean. Foreign Minister Chukchov called the actions "reckless and provocative." While he and the leading members of the State Duma refused to directly call out Davostag, they explicitly mentioned the seemingly unhinged Likatonian leadership for their actions. "It is clear that command and control in Likatonia is a figment of their imagination. If Trigunia, Kazulia, Dorvik, Lourenne, Hutori or any number of other countries had conducted such a flagrant disregard for international law as well as reckless military policies we'd be chastised. We have to hold ALL POWERS, including those minor ones such as Likatonia responsible for their efforts. The government of Trigunia will focus on handling security of the Maddog Ocean very seriously in the future." The Foreign Minister hinted at increased patrols in the area. Political commentators and "Bashnaya experts" stated that the move could provide pretext for increase naval patrols by the Trigunian Navy in the region, the Trigunian Navy has remained tight lipped about its operations across the Maddog Ocean.

While Trigunia has worked extensively to repair their military over the past several years, they have not neglected the economic efforts that have been brought to them with the Zoo Alliance. Increased free trade between Trigunia, Vanuku, Yingdala and Jelbania have prompted large growth in Trigunian sectors, notably in the supply of low cost oil and natural gas and the arms industry. Domestically, the influx of new labor has prompted the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Trade and Industry to provide large, low-cost loans to several "new economy" industries in Trigunia. The most notable being the development of large information technology sector that has struggled over the past several decades but increased funding, notably from the Ministry of Defense, has propped up the sector and has attracted both Vanukuean and Yingdalan investment. Another notable sector is the new exports for automobiles, SidoVAZ (Sidorov Automotive Plant; OOC: AvtoVAZ) has found new markets notable in Jelbania and allies of Yingdala where the sale of low cost automobiles has prompted a boon in the industry as a whole. Other notable corporations getting involved including GAZ (Gorniy Automotive Plant; OOC: GAZ) and KamAZ (Kronkirchen Automotive Plant; OOC: KamAZ) which include a wide range of vehicles, notably low cost trucks and medium sized vehicles.

The State Duma voted to continue the Winter Subsidy which was first began in September, 4688 by Minister of Finance Izyumov Nikolayevich and has existed intermittently over the past several decades. The Winter Subsidy, or the "Zimnyaya subsidiya", provides extra Rabols to low-income Trigunians during the winter months due to the traditional increase in unemployment for poorer Trigunians. The government has attempted to shift to more "New Economy" jobs but the process has been arduous.

Rech Nardoda - Speech of the People
President authorizes the formation of the 5th Guards Naval Infantry Division again
August 4761

The Bashnya, Rodshyadam, Radin - President Kochenkov announced in a televised press conference that the Trigunian Naval Infantry would reform the fabled 5th Guards Naval Infantry Division and would elevate a current naval infantry brigade to "Guards" status. In his announcement the President, a current Army General and now former Chief of the General Staff, announced that the 5th Guards Naval Infantry Division would be reformed and reorganized but largely in name only. 2 currently guards naval infantry brigades, the 2nd and 102nd would be attached to the formation and the 97th Naval Infantry Brigade would be awarded the "Guards" status. The awarding of Guards status to the 97th has been likely due to their attachment to the Green Sea Flotilla during the increased tension between Davostag and Telamon, according to reports the 97th has also been involved in training operations with the Davostani armed forces, including a nascent naval infantry force within the Davostani Navy. The 5th Guards Naval Infantry Division will only exist on paper but the formation continues to attract attention to the growing ambitions of Trigunia's armed forces and its foreign policy.

While conducting patrols of the Green Sea, the Anantonese Ocean and the Mad Dog Ocean, the Trigunian Navy has had several close run-ins with Hutorian Navy vessels. The Trigunian Navy and the Ministry of Defense state that Hutori had conducted operations that were provocative and unnecessary but the spokeswoman for the Trigunian Navy didn't reveal much more. The Trigunian Navy also conducted several counter-piracy operations and 1 search and rescue operation of a small Trigunian vessel that had lost engine power within the littoral zones of Trigunia, assisting the SGB's Coast Guard forces.

Proclamation of the FSRT - The restoration of the socialist republic
December 4783



Following the uprising of the Red Movement (Krasnoye Dvizheniye) to power, all alone, it started bringing up policies to restore the Red Trigunia. However, while sharing many characteristics of previous socialist republics, Markov Pavlovich states that he wants to suit the new socialist republic to the modern times. So far, the new government has done the following changes:

- Changing the national flag, using the last socialist republic's coloiurs, with a new coat of arms included in it.
- The establishment of the Supreme Chairman of the People's Assembly, the Chairman, and the Central Committee of the People's Assembly. Powers of each one are yet to be determined.
- Establishment of the Federal Socialist Republics, which are to be subject to the Central Committee's laws. Otherwise, the Federal Socialist Republics are to be totally autonomous in other decision-making processes.
- Assuming total control of the government.
- Separation of the Head of State from the Head of Government.
- Reducing the quantity of seats in the CCPA.
- Taxation of all religious institutions. State-promoted atheism and banning of religious schools.
- Proclamation of the Federal Socialist Republics of Trigunia.

The government is getting ready for a new era, focusing more on international politics, the introduction of a new theory that'll help develop socialism properly, and posteriorly, the achievement of communism, and the reformation of the socialist cause, globally.

New constitution approved in the Central Committee
Fabruary 4786



Following the Red Movement, led by Pavlovich, assuming control of the nation, as promised, the Central Committee has passed a new constitution reflecting Pavlovich's written theses on his book "Theses of the FSRT", published some months ago, in which he analyses the United Kerissian Socialist Republics Trigunia has had, and provides a solution to the recognised flaws of the previous socialist republics. The theses proposed by Pavlovich are the following:

1. Complete suppression of the opposition. Only socialist parties and organisations should be allowed to exist, officially. Any non-official organisation will be dismantled by the government, by force if necessary.
2. Centralisation of the key industries. Centralisation is supposed to be done by the Trigunian Socialist Republics, and not the Central Committee itself. Private property is to be banned in all Socialist Republics.
3. Federalism for the Socialist Republics to some extent. Important issues for the socialist struggle are to be determined by the Central Committee, while irrelevant ones (such as civil rights) are to be determined by the Socialist Republics.
4. Removing all power from religions, promoting state atheism and, once religious influence is totally reduced, support of a systematic oppression of religions, including banning the free expression of such.
5. Addressing environmental issues as important, but not the top priority.
6. Building a strong and powerful military able to overthrow foreign regimes.
7. Alliances and unions are expected, not only with Kerissian nations, but global.
8. The establishment of a new socialist international seeking to unite all nations under an organisation. The sovereignty of such nations are to be respected, despite forming part of the organisation.

While some still have to be addressed in the Central Committee, most of these theses have already been passed as officially part of the constitution of the FSRT. The new constitution addresses the power of the Central Committee and the People's Assembly, the former being focused on important matters for the socialist cause, and the latter one being focused on less important matters. The People's Assembly is the federal assembly of each Socialist Republic, in which the 50 delegates put the demands of their people in practice - therefore, the people control, certainly, the People's Assembly, while the Central Committee is only controlled by a minority.

The Supreme Chairman is elected by the people with the purpose of representing the nation and manage the party. The Chairman is appointed by the Central Committee once necessary, this one having the task of moderating the Central Committee.

The opposition has totally been banned too, forbidding the existence and creation of right-wing parties and organisations. Alongside opposition, the Central Committee has started its oppression against religions, promoting atheism (and banning the promotion of religious beliefs). However, people are still free to believe in religions, even though the government is planning to re-educate the people to become atheists and finally ban religions. The bourgeoisie is also heavily restricted: from voting, from playing a role in decision-making and in a future, from existence.
