Statement of support for "Communist Totalitarian Party of Hobrazia"
Vigdis Hocken, Foreign Minister for the Republic of Likatonia, and nominated spokesman for the Axis Mundi coalition, wishes to let the following be known:
The Axis Mundi coalition sympathises with and supports our allies in the "Communist Totalitarian Party of Hobrazia", and takes exception to the treatment of this party, at the hands of the "Liberal-Progressive Union".
In the "Bill Condeming Communist Totalitarian Party of Hobrazia membership in the Anti-Selucian Front", the Liberal-Progressive Union attempted to institute measures whereby the Communist Totalitarian Party would be "excluded from holding any position in government" and "from viewing any plans or documents relating to our military or government operations with Selucia".
While this IS an Hobrazian issue, we believe it to be fiercely undemocratic to refuse a party representation in government, BASED ON the 'Party Organisations' to which that party belongs.
We also take exception to the further accusations made by the Liberal-Progressive Party, to whit: that they " hope the other parties will not tolerate this borderline treason by a member of our own government".
We also take exception to the fact that any other party that attempted to defend the actions of the Communist Totalitarian Party were similarly labelled as traitors: "I am dissapointed that you would approve that an enemy to our friends and a traitor to Hobrazia be our foreign minister, Shame! I hope you realize that you may not be trusted fully again by our friends by supporting a turncoat and a enemy".
We further take exception to the tirade of insults and threats: "he shouldn't even be allowed to hold any post", "Do you think anyone will trust him?", "I call for his resignation from the foreign ministry" and "If he remains as FM then I will deal with the situation myself as the current cabinet is made up of pinkos who will throw their own mother under the bus!"
This IS an Hobrazian issue, of course...
However, the LPU assertion that anyone who shares the politics of the Communist Totalitarian Party of Hobrazia is a 'pinko' (which we take to be derogatory) is a threat to ALL Left-leaning, Socialist or Socialist-sympathetic parties.
The Axis Mundi is a coalition of different government platforms, and takes great exception to the denigration of parties based on their 'direction', or the threat of harm to parties because of their 'alliances'.Signed,
the Government of the Republic of Likatonia
