Picture/Description:


Platform:

Death Penalty: He remains committed to the use of capital punishment for crimes such as first degree murder or when multiple fatalities are involved.

Gun Rights: As a staunch supporter of the right to bear arms, he will oppose restrictions on gun use and ownership, and promise to become a champion for Nylanders who fear that a more left-leaning government will come after their guns. The right to bear arms is one of our fundamental values and it must be defended. Period.

Traditional marriage: union of one man and one women, has served as the foundation of our society since the very beginning. Societies that have abandoned traditional marriage, and by consequence the family unit, lack social cohesion. Thus he remains committed to the concept of traditional marriage and will do my absolute utmost to ensure it remains the foundation of our society. Nonetheless, he opposes the hateful rhetoric of the NMP that divides communities and families, and intend to defend the rights of LGBT persons to live their lives as citizens of our great nation. It is not up to the state to discuss what goes on between two consenting adults in the privacy of their own homes.

Abortion: Pro-life and will therefore fight to outright ban abortions after 6 weeks except in circumstances that pose a risk to the life of the mother.

Foreign Policy: He believes that Nyland is destined to become a world leader, but must look after its own interests first and foremost. The national security of Nyland depends upon the security of its neighbors and its region. Skathia must be kept free of Brigidnan, or any other type of non-Skathian, interference and meddling, as it would ultimately lead to interference in Nyland’s direct interests. Therefore this policy must be held sacrosanct and regional peace and stability is in Nyland’s interests. Thus he is also a proponent of the modernization and expansion of the Nylander military as achieving any of the goals stated in his foreign policy would be futile without a proper military force to back those aims.

Economy: He supports broad tax cuts for corporations and small businesses, and incentives to keep manufacturing at home. He also supports tariffs on internationally produced goods being imported to Nyland by Nylander companies. He also a staunch supporter of Nyland first policies when it comes to any kind of trade deal

Political/Campaign History: Victor Kjær , aged 40, is of Oslanburgan and Eskkyan origin. He currently serves as an assemblyman for the UP and has previously served as a state legislator and as a member of his local city council. He has quickly risen in the party, becoming one of its most popular representatives during his first term. During his second term, he became known as a somewhat moderate voice on some issues, such as LGBT rights, compared to more senior and hawkish members of the party, though he has always voted in line with his party.

His victory in the UP primaries to become their Presidential pick came as a surprise to many in the party, as he was viewed mainly as an underdog to the more hawkish members in the running.
