Trigunian Chief of the General Staff sits down with TNA
October, 4617

Rodshyadam - Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Trigunia sat down recently with Trigunian News Agency reporter Arina Kondyurina for a discussion on Trigunian foreign policy, Trigunia's place in the world and the future of the Armed Forces of Trigunia. General of the Army Vaniamin Igorevich Yazov, currently serving as the Minister of Defense and Chief of the General Staff was appointed by incoming Great Prince and Tsar Androniki I and confirmed by the State Duma in September, 4613. The focus of the first half of the interview was the re-building of the Trigunian Armed Forces as an "...international force of peace, prosperity, and stability." General Yazov spoke about the focus of the so-called "Yazov Reforms" which will focus on the down-grading of large-scale formations into more operational and mobile formations. This can be seen as several dozen units have changed to the "Yazov Brigades" as they have been called. These units are operational units and meant to conduct independent operations apart from "larger" formations such as divisions and their assigned Military District and Army Group.

While the focus has been made on making the Trigunian Ground Forces more mobile, the Trigunian Navy has undergone its own "purge" as dozens of officers, from top to bottom have been removed and some court-martialed. Admiral Alexei Chelomeyev who serves as the Commander-in-Chief of the Trigunian Navy is a noted reformer and his focus has been on removing the "officer bloat" from the Trigunian Navy, scaling down crews and additional manpower that is needed elsewhere throughout the Trigunian Navy. Underneath previous leadership, the Trigunian Coastal Defense Troops have been organized into two different corps, the artillery and missile coastal defense troops and motor rifle coastal defense troops. Admiral Chelomeyev merged the formations and the new coastal defense troops are focused on what Admiral Chelomeyev calls "...total coastal defense." This removed, according to revised orders of battle from groups such as Gath Defense Collective, the Chesnokov Council of International Affairs, the Zardic Institute of International Studies and others, the coastal defense troops down to 10 coastal defense brigades from 11 but has removed a number of independent formations and reduced the number of officers and increased the presence of non-commissioned officers in the Coastal Defense Troops.

While the focus of increasing the coastal defense of the Trigunian state has been one of the first things tackled by Admiral Chelomeyev, the focus has also been placed on the blue-water operations of the Trigunian Navy. Underneath the current plan, both the South Ocean Fleet and the White Ocean Fleet will continue to rotate operations throughout the globe. While the Trigunian Navy has no direct enemy, the Trigunian Navy underneath Admiral Chelomeyev announced that they will continue to operate throughout the glove, conducting freedom of navigation missions and expanding operations in the arctic. While a sore subject for the northern nations, the Trigunians, and the Kazulians have firm interests in the arctic and Admiral Chelomeyev announced that the expansion of the "Arctic Project" would continue and expand over the next several years. The Directorate of Deep Sea and the Arctic Research, of the General Staff, is staffed by a close ally of Admiral Chelomeyev, Vice Admiral Vasiliy (Vasya) Germanovich Khlebnikov. Vice Admiral Khlebnikov has expanded operations at the Trigunian base of operations in the arctic known as Khabanyev. The "Arctic Project" is known to the Trigunian public but is generally considered to be an "open secret" and information regarding what precisely is happening and what is going on in Khabanyev is unknown.

As the interview went on General Yazov continued to expand on the efforts of the more specialized branches of the Trigunian Armed Forces. For instance, the Trigunian Airborne Forces, considered to be the "elite of the elite" and compares to other special forces units, has conducted bi-monthly training through Trigunia and is believed to be expanding and the most mobile force of the Trigunian Armed Forces. The secretive Trigunian Strategic Missile Forces have undergone a significant review underneath veteran missile engineer Colonel-General Potap Borzilov and movement has seen its missile brigades move across Trigunia and place themselves in new, fortified positions. The 12th Main Directorate of the General Staff is responsible for the oversight and management of all Trigunian nuclear, chemical and biological weapons and according to limited reports, several dozen new silos have been commissioned; these reports are unconfirmed. The Trigunian Special Forces Command has continued its streak of non-reporting.

One of the largest changes has been in the invasiveness of the Rear Services of the Armed Forces of Trigunia underneath the command of Vice-Admiral Vadim Sukachyov. The Rear Services is responsible for a myriad of logistical and administrative actions that fuel, feed, and move the massive Trigunian Armed Forces. The Rear Services have undergone a significant reimagination and have been assigned units underneath their command and are working closely with the Military Aviation Transport Command, a branch of the Trigunian Aerospace Forces that conducts all of Trigunia's strategic lift operations. It is likely that the emphasis for the next several years will be the development of global operational support and sustainment operations. It is likely that Trigunia will be found on the battlefields within the next several years and it must be prepared to conduct any number of operations abroad.

Viceroyalty restored, former Prime Minister assumes post
December, 4617

Rodshyadam, Radin Oblast - The Viceroyalty of Trigunia has been restored and now former Chairman of the Council of Ministers Kazimir Ivanovich Bogolyubov has assumed the post of the Viceroy, called the Namestnik in Rodshyan. The Viceroy will serve as a secondary head of state and will carry on much of the duties of the monarch as their direct representative. In his role as Viceroy, Bogolyubov will carry the title of "Deputy Supreme Commander-in-Chief" which authorizes him to take joint action alongside Great Prince and Tsar Androniki I. The Chief of Staff of the Office of the Chairman of the Council of Ministers Potap Aleskeevich Krayev will succeed outgoing the Prime Minister in a little bit of a shocking move, however, many political commentators are speculating that the Chief of Staff is more ideologically similar to the Great Prince and Tsar and the outgoing Prime Minister.

Does a Dollar Crisis loom?
January, 4718

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Finance have signaled that they would seek to replace the Lodamese Dollar as the "de facto" international currency. This comes after reports from Lodamun have political parties attempting to ban stock exchanges and conduct radical changes to the economic policies of the Lodamese state. A press conference was also held with the State Bank of Trigunia's monetary policy section regarding the potential "Dollar Crisis". While there have been several dozen historical attempts at replacing the LOD, many of them have failed. The Trigunian Rabol is one of the strongest currencies when compared to the LOD and historically alongside the Rutanian Ruta, the Aldegarian Crown, the Telamon Pound and several others that are not in the same tier as the aforementioned currency. While historically these rates have fluctuated little, many other currencies have risen to comparative rates such as the Dorvish Dolgar, the Lourennian Franc, the Vanukean currencies and the Kazulian Krona. Minister of Finance Erik Georgiy Bovarin noted that the Trigunian state might begin to seek an alternative and will focus on trade avoidance with the Lodamese. It is reported that the Trigunians with either seek to create a new "international currency" or will begin to operate with a more fixed-rate attitude towards the Lodamese Dollar.

The rise of a new superpower?
August, 4618

Rodshydamn - The rise of a new political party in New Endralon and Kizenia was welcomed as Viceroy Kazimir Ivanovich Bogolyubov spoke at a press conference regarding Kerisian cooperation and unity. Viceroy Bogolyubov noted that Trigunia welcomed the rise of a new political faction in NEK and welcomed them to the table. Historically NEK and Trigunia have had, at best, lukewarm relations, with the two nations competing for supremacy over the continent. The Confederal Union Party and its leadership swept national elections and approached Trigunia with a unique offer. They offered to take Great Prince and Tsar Androniki I to become the King of New Endralon and Kizenia (in NEK historically known as the "Dominator and Great Voivode") and the Great Prince and Tsar accepted. In a preliminary agreement set out, the Trigunian and NEK governments would retain independence but would cooperate on a number of issues. The Trigunian government-appointed Alexei Zakharovich Maslak as the representative to the new union state known as the "Royal Confederation of Northern Keris". The Trigunian government confirmed, via its representative to the RCNK that the following issues had been discussed and agreed on to be cooperated on: joint military operations and training, the development of weapons and materials in relation to military hardware, economic cooperation, free, fair and preferential trade agreements between Trigunia and NEK, coordinating committee to operate on a confederal level to ensure sovereignty and foster prosperity and cooperation, future infrastructure projects, building of mutually beneficial operations, improved border cooperation and immigration cooperation, sports and youth cooperation. Political experts across the world have discussed what this means for world politics, it will certainly boost the power stature of Trigunia and will raise the bar for New Endralon and Kizenia.

Trigunian Navy returns to port
March, 4619

Rodshyadam, Radin Oblast - The Trigunian Navy's South Ocean Fleet and the White Ocean Fleet have conducted their seventh sea trials since the return of the Trigunian bear. A ceremony presided over by the Great Prince and Tsar, the Viceroy and the Minister of Defense in which they congratulated the two commanders of the respective fleets. Commander-in-Chief of the Trigunian Navy Admiral Alexei Dmitrievich Chelomeyev spoke regarding the future of the Trigunian Navy in which he announced that the Trigunian Navy was going to begin the construction of two Rodshyadamn-class aircraft carriers, intent on replacing the one Yegorovich-class aircraft carrier which will likely be sold or placed in reserve. The two new nuclear powered aircraft carriers are expected to be a feat of strength for the Trigunian government's United Shipbuilding Corporation, the company which merged several dozen companies and shipyards that manufactured Trigunian ships. Admiral Chelomeyev noted that the Trigunian Navy would continue to operate as a "...global force for peace, stability and order." While the Trigunian Navy is focused on conducting its blue water operations and reminding its neighbors, allies and enemies that the Trigunian Armed Forces stand prepared to deploy anywhere in a moments notice. While the Trigunian Navy was preparing a portion of its ships for returning to port and undergoing repairs, modernization and other efforts, the Coastal Defense Troops underneath Major General Viktor Umsky conducted an emergency preparedness drills with coastal artillery systems and sunk a number of scrapped warships and civilian ships in a strong show of force for the newly reorganized Coastal Defense Troops.

The focus of Trigunia operations has shifted from solely its own defense to an outward expansion underneath the leadership of Minister of Defense General Vaniamin Yazov and the revival of the Trigunian Navy as a global force has meant that the world has to prepare that the Trigunian bear has once again been re-awakened. According to sources inside the Bashnya, the Security Council of Trigunia has issued several directives, supported by the Great Prince and Tsar and the Viceroy aimed at combating radical ideologies and agendas at home while also focusing on international issues. A Security Council directive issued earlier last month listed a number of foreign terrorist groups and domestic terrorist groups, individuals associated with them or corporations associated with them would have their assets frozen and seized by the Ministry of Finance and split with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Another directive focused on the establishment of the national security strategies for the Tsardom; while details of the directive were redacted, it shows an unprecedented investment into the establishment of the Trigunia as the preeminent cyber-warfare power.

Rodshyadam Today: National Guard units deployed en masse to Abreken Republic as Viceroy announces dissolution

Trigunian National Guard troops on the streets of Kreznastovnya

Kreznastovnya, Abreken Republic, Trigunia - Units belonging to Trigunia's National Guard entered into the capital of Abreken Republic earlier yesterday evening as Viceroy Kazimir Bogolyubov announced the semi-autonomous regions dissolution in a meeting of the State Duma. The Abreken Republic, founded underneath previous Trigunian governments was a move to quell Ahmadi dissent within the Trigunian state at times when the Ahmadi State in Kafuristan and other radical Ahmadi movements had taken over several countries throughout the world. The capital of the Abreken Republic, Kreznastovnya, was alive with protests and activity with pro-regime forces countering protestors and engaging in violence against the largely Ahmadi population within the Abreken Republic. While the Abreken Republic at one point served a political function it has largely become a thorn in the side of the Trigunian federal government, namely due to its financial insolvency and its lack of control over several sectarian violent outbreaks over the past several years. While at one point the Abreken Republic served as a vital function of the Trigunian government, it has now run its course and Viceroy Bogolyubov has deemed it fit to close the semi-autonomous republic. All of the Abreken Republic's holdings will be transferred over to the Oblast of Brakav and will then be changed as the Law on the Administrative Divisions of the Tsardom of Trigunia is under review and work in the State Duma. While the National Guard was deployed in force so was the forces of the State Security Service and the MVD's Police forces.

The TFI and the Security Council
October, 4619

Rodshyadam - Finance Minister Erik Bovarin announced at a press conference earlier today the new "Tower and Factory Initiative" in which the Trigunian state would act as an investor in information technology and industrial capacities throughout the world. Trigunia has been a world leader in information technology for several centuries and has pioneered many systems such as the Trigunian Global Navigation System (GLONAVS) which competed with the Global Positioning System that many countries have used, now with the creation of GLONAVS the Trigunian government split the market for dominance in the information sphere. While the GLONAVS system was developed to reduce foreign dependency on the satellite system for the Trigunian Armed Forces, it became popular in the civilian field. While this is one of the many functions that Trigunia wishes to bring the developing world and developing economies, the Trigunian will also focus on the proliferation of mobile telephones, laptop computers and an education component of the initiative that focuses on providing schools and universities within the developing world with computer labs and other IT-related technology. While the proliferation of hardware is a focus, the proliferation of software is also a huge component and several dozen Trigunian software companies have volunteered to offer free or heavily discounted software to participants in the TFI.

The factory component of the initiative will focus on the development of industry in relation to relative resources and abilities of the country that the TFI is started in. For instance, Trigunia has provided domestic investments to oil and gas production where it is a “middle tier” producer of gas and oil. The TFI will focus on the expansion of Trigunian companies in foreign nations as well as building new companies with local political and business leadership. One key industry that the Trigunian’s have sought to cultivate is the defense industry, Trigunia is notorious for its designs that span across the globe and have seen thousands of years of conflict. While it is unlikely that Trigunia will given modern technologies and equipment to potential members of the TFI, it is apparently willing to give some “newer” technologies such as offering a cheap export version of the MiG-29, the SU-30 and the T-72 and T-80 main battles tanks alongside access to cheap and effective small arms. Falling underneath a hybrid of the “tower” and the “factory” will be the establishment of IT hardware facilities and datacenters that will assist in building mobile networks, internet and communication hubs.

It is unknown what will happen with the launch of the Tower and Factory Initiative but the Council of Ministers has announced the formation of the “State Planning Committee” as a sub-group of the Council of Ministers and a “Standing Committee on the Tower and Factory Initiative” which will include a wide-array of officials, business leaders and others who have vested interest in the TFI. The initial contributions for the TFI are rumored to be roughly $10b LOD.

Secretary of the Security Council Andrei Kasyanov spoke today at a conference of Trigunian ambassadors and diplomatic personnel regarding the Trigunian place in the world and the establishment of a “multi-polar” World Congress. The somewhat shadowy Secretary of the Security Council spoke regarding the re-establishment of the World Congress’ Security Council which largely fallen inactive due to the failings of several world powers such as Dorvik, Vanuku, Hutori, Kazulia and others. Kasyanov echoed the call of the Office of the World Congress underneath the Ministry of Foreing Affairs that “...Trigunia could easily lead the charge to revitalize the World Congress and could make leaps and bounds to re-organize the failing Security Council.” But stopped short of saying that it had entirely failed. “The Security Council only works if the world is multi-polar, if we have interests across the globe for stability, prosperity and order. We’ve generally got world powers who are dis-interested in world affairs. The post-colonial states in the east are in shambles and I think that the Security Council needs to understand we need effective leadership on a global scale. Not only that we’ve had issues with the establishment of peace-keeping forces and operations, we cannot allow that. We must stand up and be prepared to sacrifice for the good of the world.”

Kasyanov has been a proponent of the establishment of a quick response force for Trigunia and partially won when the Trigunian Ground Forces introduced air mobile groups at a brigade level. Dovani and to a lesser extent Vescania and Temania have seen a spread of conflict. Boiling ethnic tensions in Statrica where the minority Statricans have come into open civil war with the native population. We have issues in Bianje where both ethnic and political tension have boiled over and other nations such as the relatively stable New Englia where two ethnic groups compete for control over the government, provoking clashes. The Office of the World Congress also announced that it’s Office of Peacekeeping had formed the “Collective Rapid Response Force” which will include elements of the Trigunian Airborne Forces and elements of the Trigunian Ground Forces to serve as the de facto peacekeeping force of Trigunia.

Trigunia condemns "Dranian aggression".
July, 4618

Rodshyadam, Radin - Secretary of the Security Council Andrei Kasyanov spoke today regarding the movement of Dranian troops to the border with Kazulia and condemned the move. Speaking to a bevy of international and domestic reporters, the Secretary of the Security Council stated: "The Treaty of Asvald must be upheld for regional peace and stability, we cannot allow nations such as Dankuk to willfully and continually harm and strain international peace. If Dankuk does not withdraw its forces from the border and halt with its threats, the Tsardom will have no choice but to implement sanctions and conduct a further review of diplomatic and economic ties to the nation." Following the press conference it was reported that the Security Council of Trigunia placed units in the Eastern Military District on high alert and elements of the Anantoese Ocean Fleet were dispatched to monitor the situation off of the coast of Dankuk. Following his rapid ascent to power, some have speculated if the former SGB Deputy Chief will ascend higher into the stratum of power within the Trigunian government. It is reported that Kasyanov has had several high level meetings with the Great Prince and Tsar as well as Viceroy Bogolyubov leading to speculation that the Secretary of the Security Council will be appointed somewhere further in the government of Trigunia, rumors have it that he will retain his post as Secretary of the Security Council and be placed in the current Chairman of the Council of Ministers spot within the next "several months".

Kasyanov also announced that the Trigunian Navy would be contracting with the United Shipbuilding Corporation to build two brand new Rodshyadamn-class aircraft carriers to compliment the other Rodshyadamn-class air craft carrier and replace the aging Yegorovich-class aircraft carrier. Rumors are that the Trigunian Navy will continue to grow its forces as they press forward into an unprecedented era of activity and uncertainty. Kasyanov noted that the Trigunian Navy would be conducting anti-piracy controls alongside the Dovani coast due to an uptick in piracy that Trigunian-flagged ships have reported. A separate flotilla will be formed and known as the "Dovani Flotilla" and will be responsible for a wide range of anti-piracy operations. The operation will be lead by Vice Admiral Lubomir Ilyich Golov, the former Chief of Staff of the Central Military District.

Viceroy announces Kasyanov as Chairman
February, 4624

Rodshyadam, Radin - Viceroy Bogolyubov announced that Secretary of the Security Council Andrei (Andrusha) Nikolayevich Kasyanov would be taking over the post of the Chairman of the Council of Ministers, replacing Potap Aleskeevich Krayev who will be stepping down to take over the position of Mayor of Rodshyadam. Kasyanov will retain his post as Secretary of the Security Council and will continue to be a driving force in Trigunia politics. Many have speculated that he will eventually ascend to the “throne” of power as the eventual successor to Bogolyubov as Viceroy. The incoming Chairman will have to face a declining global economy and an array of problems off of its eastern coast on Dovani; notably the continued tensions with Utari Mosir and Ostland. The Kepo's, an ethnic group related to the Trigunian's that make up nearly 30% of the Mosriak population, are discriminated against but the Trigunian government has been lobbying in hoping for official recognition. The developing tensions between Dankuk and Kazulia have heightened Trigunian forces in the Eastern Military District, including the Trigunian Strategic Missile Forces which have been placed on high alert.

While this has occurred, Grand Duke Androniki II has entered into a professional contract with the Trigunian Airborne Troops, one of the first of the noble family to become a professional soldier. The Grand Duke is married to powerful Triguno-Hulstria business magnet’s daughter Saskia von Kelsen. It is the first time that a Triguno-Hulstrian has married a sitting Great Prince and Tsar’s successor. The future Great Prince and Tsar is likely to play a more active role in Trigunian politics, notably in foreign affairs as he attended the University of Rodshyadam and graduated from the School of International Affairs and Politics; one of the most prominent and notable Trigunia diplomatic and international affairs schools.

In his first announcement as Chairman of the Council of Ministers he noted that the Trigunian Aerospace Forces would be expanding a number of new, state of the art craft including the formal introduction of the Su-57 fifthgeneration fighter after decades of delay and mismanagement. Kasyanov met with several officials from the Suvelievich Design Bureau (Su), which operates underneath the State Aircraft Corporation which is responsible for oversight of all production of new Trigunian aircraft. The state of the art fighter-bomber is touted to compete with the likes of the Zardic F-22 and the joint project known as the F-35. While it will not be the sole production, the incoming Chairman stated he will also be aggressively pursuing a renewed strategic bomber fleet and increased nuclear weapons stockpile.
