KNS LEADERS AT NEFKOMP HQ GRAND OPENING

Vladimirsk:The Trygunya Nefyanaya Kompaniya (Nefkomp) opened its new headquarters in Vladimirsk, Federated Socialist Republic of Lesnov. Krasnyy Narodnyy Soyuz (KNS) Deputy Party Secretary Karl Kollowrath, KNS CCPA Delegation Leader E.V. Kutryagina and KNS Shadow Finance Minister D.K. Tseretelli attended the opening ceremony where Nefkomp CEO Lazar Moseievich Bogdanovich told attendees that Nefkomp was on target to continue to be the largest supplier of natural gas to the nation through its expanding pipeline system and was increasing its role as supplier of crude oil and petroleum products domestically and in the crude oil market.

Bogdanovich noted that although NefKomp was traded on the stock market as NFTK, in fact 75% of the ownership remained in the nation itself and indeed the Board Chairman was selected by the government while the Board was selected by the workers. The government and the workers acting through the Board Chair and the Board jointly selected the CEO who then ran the operations through management appointees she or he made; thus Bogdanovich felt for all practical purposes that Nefkomp was nationalized already.

CEO Bogdanovich did wonder if the government would authorize increasing production of crude oil now that three of the other oil producers with the largest reserves had also cut production and avoided an oil glut.

KNS Shadow Minister Tseretelli did respond to these remarks to reporters as follows;

With respect to whether Nefkomp is organized so as to avoid consideration for nationalization, I agree it is where the Metzist vision would want it and believe the ruling party would agree. As to increasing crude oil production, KNS believes this will be addressed shortly after the next election.

President P.D. Borosdin of KNS

NEW SUPREME CHAIRMAN SEEKS CABINET OF ALL PARTIES

Traktorgrad: In a surprise victory Krasnyy Narodnyy Soyuz (KNS) carried 178 of the 250 seats in the Central Committee of the People's Assembly and their candidate for Supreme Chairman, Pavel Dmitrievich Borosdin was elected as well. In a brief statement Borosdin sought unity:

Well comrades, it was a surprise. Our own internal analysis showed us winning Vrosnok, being close in Brakav and losing the rest. So today we are ahead and in a position to form a cabinet. We have three parties all sharing the Metzist vision for Trigunia and what KNS wants is to work together. We do have differences which may make this impossible; and we do know one of the other parties could be forming a government before long. KNS just hopes to use its time wisely.

Borosdin joined other KNS party leaders at Der Rostige Nagel in the Hulstrian Quarter for wienerschitzel and schnapps

D.K. Tseretelli, KNS Health and Social Services Minister Designate

KNS DOES HAVE A DOCTRINE, SURE IT DOES

Rodshyadam: Stung by criticism that every other extant and recently departed party had a doctrine while Krasnyy Narodnyy Soyuz (KNS) only seemed to want to be seen in a warm glow, KNS Floor Leader E.V. Kuryagina suggested that D.K. Tseretelli who is a likely cabinet selection cobble together something; he did and it follows:

The Tseretelli Corollary

Krasnyy Narodnyy Soyuz (KNS) does in fact consider itself a Metzist party and for that matter subscribes to the newly passed constitution and the Martov Pavolvich Theses, https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_n9 ... sp=sharing which it considers brilliant in its historical analysis of past failure of socialist government.

This corollary addresses three points with which KNS has a slightly different view than all three. First, since there has been no world revolution and not likely to be in the immediate future, some accommodations with reality must be made in order to build socialism in one country through the dictatorship of the proletariat. With the majority of the citizens at least nominally considering themselves part of a religious body, it makes sense to allow our people to continue in their religious beliefs and practices if they will join in the Metzist vision. This point by no means may be used by religious political operatives and other running dogs of capitalism as permission to use theology as a basis for opposing the Metzist doctrine.

Second, since there is as yet no world revolution, domestic priorities must be determined. KNS has opted for implementation of the benefits of socialism and securing the safety net ahead of say nationalization for the sake of nationalization.

Third, although the new constitution and the Martov Pavlovich Theses call for a strong military and international defensive alliances, as does KNS, one can certainly expect differences of how this can be implemented. KNS will certainly pursue alliances with socialist and communist regimes; however, the final test for an ally must be reliability using the best judgment of our diplomatic, military and intelligence services

E.V. Kuryagina, Chair of People's Assembly

COALITION GOVERNMENT FORMED

Rodshyadam: Eudoxia Vasilyevna Kuryagina, Chair of the People's Assembly, announced that a coalition cabinet of Krasnyy Narodnyy Soyuz and Krasnoye Dvisheniye had been formed and would work together under the principles of the new constitution and the Metzist vision of the Martov Pavlovich Theses.

Kuryagina indicated the goal of a balanced budget had been achieved but would still need careful review to insure funds were present to insure that universal health benefits and other features of the safety net were properly funded. She anticipated the Health and Social services Minister would shortly be reporting on some necessary changes.

She also indicated the Foreign Office was reviewing our alliances and security needs and was accordingly reaching out to our neighbors and natural allies.

Foreign Minister H.A. Tereshchenko

OUTREACH BY FOREIGN OFFICE

Rodshyadam:
In his report to the Central Committee of the People's Assembly, Foreign Minister Hippolyte Aleksandrovich Tershchenko included the following statement:

In accordance with the Martov Petrovich Theses and the New Constitution, the Foreign Office has contacted several nations that are our neighbors seeking friendship and non aggression pacts. We have also reached out to several nations with similar political approaches to ourselves to see if they too would be interested in establishing friendly relations.

We have several existing alliances and are examining them as well to determine their viability; and, of course, comrades, we are also being informed on that score by our intelligence services. At this point we can only say no threats have been detected from the parties to those alliances.

Supreme Chair P.D. Borosdin

CCPA DEBATES 3M ROLE

Traktorgrad: At a meeting of Brakav government health care managers at Das Alte Lederhosenhaus Hotel in the Hulstrian sector of Traktorgrad, Supreme Chair of the People's Assembly P.D. Borosdin responded to questions on the future role in health care of the 3M:

The Central Committee of the People's Assembly (CCPA) is currently debating whether changes should be made in the relation of the government to More Medicaments Manufacture (the 3M). Why? In 4770 the government became an importer of 3M products which included having actual 3M pharmacies operating in Trigunia. By 4771 most pharmacies were 3M but not all. At present the largest corporation on Terra is operating a majority of the pharmacies in our socialist state, and most prescription drugs sold are 3M products. There are privately owned drug manufacturers and pharmacies. A recent change is prescription drugs are now being imported from other nations such as Dolgava. Well why not just nationalize and be done with it as many academic Metzists have proposed?

Two reasons really. The government is obligated under current law to provide universal health care including prescription drugs. The governing coalition, Krasnyy Trigunskiy Soyuz, will not default on this obligation. Hostile seizure might very well disrupt the actual ability to deliver. Second, do we really want to cut out of our supply chain access to the drugs necessary for dealing with health crises that show up from time to time.

But current law also provides that ownership of businesses can not be majority interest foreign owned. So some action must be taken and the status quo is in violation of law.

Krasnyy Trigunskiy Soyuz has a plan. We notify the 3M that pharmacies can either make arrangements to purchase the 3M or the government will take them, this over a 6 year period. Pharmacies, whether private, government or formerly 3M but now private will import from 3m, buy domestic or import from a trading partner. Loans will be available from the Ministry of Health and Social Services appropriations through the Central Bank to 3M pharmacies wishing to buy out 3M and for that matter to those wishing to continue operating drug factories. Should drug manufacturerrs fail outright we will nationalize,

We have consulted Malinovskii, Dzerzhinskii, Braunschweiger and Dolgorov and their recommendation is should nationalization occur, eminent domain could be handled either under our law or the law of Endralon and the option of which be given to the 3M.

We expect this plan to be adopted by the CCPA

Martina I.

Health and Social Services Minister D.K. Tseretelli

3M PHARMACIES GETTING NEW OWNERS

Rodshyadam: Health and Social Services Minister D.K. Tseretelli has announced that a government plan to reform ownership of More Medicaments Manufacture (3M) is proceeding. Tseretellli issued this statement:

This is a little complex but likely can be understood as having four aspects,

1) Privately owned pharmacies including formerly 3M pharmacies will be supplied prescription drugs by 3M, other foreign suppliers, privately owned drug manufacturers manufacturers, or government manufacturers. Per current law, the government pays for the drugs.

2) 3M pharmacies may be purchased over a six year period by private interests. Loans are available from the Central Bank from appropriations for Health and Social Services and Trade and Industry. Drug manufacturers may also obtain loans from the same government sources.

3) When 3M and private interests can not reach agreement including partial 3M ownership less than a majority interest, the government will take over those pharmacies and operate them. Similarly, should drug manufacturers fail as a business, the government will take over that drug production operation.

4) For those 3M pharmacies that do not reach agreement with private buyers and are taken over by the government, just compensation will be determined under the laws of our socialist republic; however, should 3M be dissatisfied it may seek redress either in our courts or the courts of Endralon for the exercise of eminent domain.

We have balanced the budget and are banking over 1 billion TRA per annum and do not anticipate any shortfall because of this action; however, this is an expensive action in the short run and we certainly anticipate the need for budget adjustment.

The governing coalition, Krasnyy Trigunskiy Soyuz, is meeting its obligation to provide universal health care.

Kollowrath noted that Yuzran had long been the key to keeping our air defense modernized both for own air defense and for producing variations on standard aircraft for export arms sales.

The Minister indicated that our commercial air lines, intra island, inter island and international, were all counting on Yuzran to keep our passenger and air freight aircraft up to date in terms of fuel efficiency, maneuverability, safety, range, comfort, storage capacity, and ease of landing and takeoff, navigation and maintenance. he assured the managers and staff of the institute it would continue to be fully funded by both the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Infrastructure and Ttansport despite talk in the Central committee of budget juggling.
