Meridian QuickNews - Fornoire - 10-02-2018
The Meridian Foreign Ministry has said "Do you want us to shoot ourselves in the foot? Will our soldiers fight a war just so you may have the elitist pleasure of eliminating torture for convicted rapists which are not your own, at the cost of the priceless lives in the thousands of our citizens? Our soldiers will, instead of fighting their brothers for the sensibilities of foreigners and for the comfort of rapists, desert in the thousands! Canarto is certainly insane, but you are leagues ahead! Before criticizing us for keeping the peace that makes the economy and our citizens survive, offer a bloodless solution! We are all ears"

Regions of Meridia, stance on the Canartese crisis:
Trentosta Valley: "We express our concern towards this matter. Canarto should cease its inhumane practices immediately"
Caleion: "We are worried on what a war might mean for the Meridian economy. We urge restraint from all sides"
Touligia: "The current state of affairs is extremely problematic. Our nation cannot survive a war unscathed. We urge restraint"
Burgundy: "A Republic cannot stand on unstable earth. We urge that all parties meet to discuss the matter like civilized persons"
Chevelie: "We cannot stress our worry enough. Chevelie calls on all parties to engage in talks to achieve a solution"
Parisia: "We condemn Canarto for maintaining torture, but we must also condemn foreign powers for pressing the issue and possibly starting a civil war if the central government is pressured enough. We urge them to understand Meridia's Catch 22: if they act, an injustice will be fixed, but they also start a war and the economy tanks; if they do not, then sanctions will be applied and the economy will tank"
Coelinali: "Coelinali urges all sides to meet and talk things out. An unstable Canarto is not what Meridia needs"
Forniria: "As a small region bordering Canarto, our local government is beyond alarmed on what is transpiring. For the safety of all persons in the nation, we implore on all sides to not provoke a war"
Asturia: "Canarto is beyond insane. However, this insanity is to be taken seriously. One push of a button will lead to a war"
Atenios: "We resolutely demand that Canarto abolish torture immediately. We support the Artemian Union's efforts towards the progress of human rights in Meridia"
Anatolia: "Anatolia demands that Canarto abolish torture at once. It is to be noted that we must avoid a war, however"
Loreira: "Our regional police have been deployed at our border with Canarto. We urge a peaceful resolution to the crisis. Violence must be avoided, and it will not be tolerated by the Region of Loreira"
Ossitania: "The Autonomous Region of Ossitania expresses its neutrality on the issue"
Faranze: "The Autonomous Region of Faranze declares itself neutral in this event"
Tiguria: "We will not allow violence at our border to pass unpunished. If there is to be a war, our police forces are ready to retaliate against aggression from any sides if need be in our border areas with Canarto. We demand that all sides meet and craft a peaceful solution posthaste"
