The Free-Thinking Coalition may have saved this nation from rule by the extremist in the DSPR and the Fascist Party but too many leaders in the coalition still embrace the ideas that give fuel to these radicals. Many of these leaders remain sycophants to the populist cause with no regard to our International relations, the state of private industry within the nation, or the forces they fuel when they embrace Isolationism and their dangerous support of polices meant to discourage foreigners in our nation.
We have to be brave enough to fight for what is best for the nation and our economic prosperity and not just what is the Populist approach. Take the Labour Reform Act of 4369, while we believe its sound economic policy to free employers from forcibly paying into Social Security contributions the law seeks to limit our Foreign Labor. This only hurts communities that depend on a seasonal economy and can make good use of Foreign Workers. This is why the Whig Party has introduced the Foreign Engagement and Dialogue Act. Should the Act pass Rutania can engage with our neighbors and all the nations of Terra in a way that helps our economy, allows our manufacturers and agricultural producers access to new markets while allowing them the opportunity to be truly competitive in today's world. The Populist will oppose these measures and I just hope they know that in standing for isolationism they only encourage xenophobia throughout the nation.
Press Release
The Commonwealth of Rutania has passed a Resolution in support of our allies in Kazulia, although this resolution was passed after the ceasefire had been declared the nations of Terra should not doubt our resolve in our continued devotion to any and all of our allies. We would like to congratulate Kazulia on their swift victory over the aggressors in Dankuk. Because of the inspiring victory we have begun debate within Rutania to select Luthori and Kazulia as Rutanians sole Security Council nominees. As fellow members of the Northern Council this administration they are uniquely positioned to serve Rutania's best interest abroad.
Office of the Prime Minister, Carson Threadgood
Esteemed members of the Kazulian government & Hans Kongelige Høyhet, Kong Haakon,
The Commonwealth of Rutania, your faithful ally and fellow Northern Council member would like to extend a formal invitation for a state visit and dinner in December 4373 in the Rutanian capital of Vanerburg. The Commonwealth recently passed legislation nominating Kazulia for Security Council seat D and the nations legislature is currently voting on an aid package that would supply Kazulia with 13,046,703.30 (KKR) Annually over a 3 year period to aid in the rebuilding and securing of the Sørvestland region. We await your response and would welcome input from the Kazulian government in our legislatures consideration of the aid package.

Men and women of Rutania, what we are experiencing right now is historic. This is the end of the undemocratic 16-year reign of Steven Vanderburg. The decline in the DSPR's influence sends a very important message to their party; you have fooled Rutania with your unrealistic socialist promises and the people of Rutania are sick and tired of your policy. For 16 years, we have had a president from a party that has fiercely promoted its far left views and disregarded the will of the average Rutanian.
As the President, my only job is to protect you by any means necessary. It is not an easy job. It will mean a lot of hard choices and compromises. You have given me your trust, and what I promise to you, my fellow Rutanians, is that the day I lie to you is the day that I die. I am now being given the most respected position in all of Rutania, but that does not make me even a tiny bit more valuable than you. --
Friends and our colleagues across the aisle, I'd like to welcome you all to Vanderburg and the legislature. For many of you this may be your first time here as a representative of the people and many of your familiar faces have been here for years. While I'm sure you all would love to bask in our success as much as I would we have been sent here to work for the people and we must begin this work with the greatest urgency, it is astonishing how quickly 4 years can pass by here in Vanderburg. The people of Rutania have cast leadership away from the DSPR for the first time in decades and this shouldn't be taken lightly. We have a chance now to break the chains of socialism, communism and any other ideology that is not compatible with liberty and prosperity. As Prime Minister I would like the legislature's support in making this term one of shrinking governments role in the everyday life of the Rutanian people and in doing so we can shrink the burden they must pay to fund the ever-growing monstrosity that our government has become. For decades this government has engaged in a policy of despicable contempt for the free market, for success, and for economic liberty; we now have a chance to stop this. I hope that my colleagues in this Assembly will work together to find ways in which we can find compromise and reform our government in a way that benefits the Commonwealth and our shared prosperity
