Adalger Bötticher, Representative to the World Congress for the Federal Republic of Hulstria and Gao-Soto
Following the actions of the Kalistani government, in which they have legalized piracy and allowed it to occur within the Ananto Strait, the Imperial Crownlands of Hulstria hereby announce that we are ending all trade with the nation of Kalistan.
Furthermore, we are officially mobilizing our militaries naval and air assets in response to reports of attacks upon Lourennais vessels. Lourenne is one of our greatest allies and has consistently supported our nation through times of crisis. Now, we are deploying our naval and air assets, alongside Lourenne, to defend our allies trade and shipping.
An attack on our brother Lourenne, is an attack on both Hulstria and the Hulstrian people.
