War in the South Atlantic

In the last few days the situation in the South Atlantic has deteriorated considerably resulting in a state of war between the Kingdom of Nordmark and Argentina. Various nations have responded in different ways, Italy having taken a more Neutral stance interning ships from both nations for 48 hours. Greece has responded by sending additional forces to the region and is actively evacuating non-beligerant nationals, a move that is expected to be bolstered by Atlantian forces. Iberia has taken a pro nordmark stance against Argentina and has frozen Argentinian assets and has threatened internment of Argentinian ships. Its expected that more nations will condemn the beligerant behaviour of Agentina in the next few days.

Explosion in Caracus
Early this morning an explosion rocked the city of Caracus when a suspected bomb exploded outside the govt. buildings. The responcibility for the bombing has not yet been claimed but it is suspected that Columbian rebels are responcible. Several thousand Columbian citizens from many eastern city's in the nation have expressed their will to become part of the Venesuelan mainland as many of them are either venezuelan imagrants or have relatives living there. Columbia has been moving towards joining an Iberian rule. The columbian rebels appose any movement away from full Columbian sovereignty and several anarchist groups have joined them in opposing this.

Nations express consearn

The nations of Guyana, Suraname, Columbia and Puru have expressed consearns about growing threats from other larger nations in the South American region and have called for talks with Iberia, Atlantis and France about their security and posible solutions to the problem. Among the nations Coulumbia is having the worst problems having two clonial nations on either side and a larger independant nation on another coupled with internal political instibility have left the nation in a precarious position. Puru has expressed great consearn about Argentina becoming quite beligerant to a large power such as Nordmark and in the words of one polition, "if they can attack nordmark without reguard to possible reprocussions, whats to stop them from attacking us? Guyana and Suriname have expressed similar consearns. No date for talks has been set, but diplomats from Atlantis and Iberia have already discussed the issue and Its exspected that France will follow suit

Joint Statement of the Republic of France and the Russian Federation

Our governments endorse the measures taken by the governments of Atlantis to reassure the governments of several South American countries regarding the dangerous belligerence and severely deficient judgement demonstrated by the government of Argentina. Our governments are prepared to endorse League of Nations sanctions on the government of Argentina, including economic and political sanctions, and will oppose no country in measures they take in self-defense against the warlike intentions and actions of the Argentine government. Our governments await, with full confidence in the veracity and professionalism of those conducting it, the results of the investigation into the regicide.
