WITH FREE ELECTIONS COMPLETE, FEDERAL TROOPS SET TO STAND DOWN IN ALDURIAWith The Caretaker Government Suspended And Fresh Elections Carried Out, The Federation Is Set To End The Armed CampaignFebruary 4459 (retroactive)
Following the recent elections in the State of Alduria, Kanjor Defense Minister Reverdin has announced an end to armed operations in the State by the Federal Armed Forces, with non-Aldurian Federal troops currently in the process of returning from active duty. Reverdin announced that the duty of upholding the peace in Alduria will now be returned to the new government, with the help of the Federal Police Force.
In the recent elections, Canrillaise National Party leader Charles de Tugart was elected to head of state, and a national coalition government formed, demonstrating the political party's unity and willingness to strive for peace and reconciliation.
Aldurian delegates have now been granted to the Federal Assembly as direct control is set to end following the electoral result.
Aldurian political and military leaders who were pivotal during the regime are still being held captive by Federal Law Enforcement pending a World Congress Tribunal into the crimes of the Nationalist Government. Rousseau is still on the run with the three Intelligence services of the Federation working in tandem in an attempt to locate and arrest him.
The withdrawal was greeted by an astounding applause by Aldurian people, many of whom came to thank the Federal Armed Forces for their intervention and their pivotal role in upholding international human rights law within the nation and bringing the long lasting criminal actions of the old government to an end.
Recent investigations by the Federal Law Enforcement Agency have found mass graves located near prisons and military facilities controlled by Aldurian Army personnel during the Regime. The bodies appear to be of prisoners reported missing or said to have escaped prison during the immigrant crackdown which occurred soon before Federal intervention.
