Honourable Members of the General Assembly,
My name is Joseph Hertzinger. I represent the Communist Revolutionary Party and I'm afraid that I don't bring good news today. The nation of Dorvik which was once heralded as the beacon of freedom and democracy isn't that anymore.
The currently governing self-described nationalist Dorvish Workers' Party is doing what they can to silence opposition and any views that either do not align with their own or do not bend to their will. As the leader of the only opposition party in Dorvik right now it is my duty to ask the General Assembly to act on this issue before it's too late.
In October 4351 merely few days after our party was founded, as part of the effort to not only silence, but also imprison us for our views the DWP proposed the Bill on "State Self-Defense and Protection of the Dorvish People" which aimed to ban all socialist and communist organizations of all branches be they parties, activist groups, labour unions and news organizations among others. We decided to not take it to the international community since this seemed to be an isolated event. However now I can say that the situation is no longer the same. The DWP-controlled Minstry of the Interior started producing intelligence reports on the very same organizations they wanted to ban just two years ago.
In addition numerous left-wing trade union leaders have been arrested over what we see as a false-flag, falsified, non-existent terror plot. At the same time the government released a new domestic terror watch list which contents are unknown, but it's fair to say that after what we've seen for the past two years I myself might as well be on it, because this government will stop at nothing in their quest to hold on to power for the sake of having power. They do not see it as means to achieve something, but rather as an end goal, as something to benefit themselves.
So this is why I'd like to reapeat my plea to the General Assembly requesting your aid in solving this situation.
Joseph Hertzinger,
Leader of the KRP
Dorvik
