Duonzhou, Tieguo - Limited descriptions of violence and protest have been reported out of the Ostaran nation of Tieguo in recent days, with some reports going so far as the claim extreme violence being used by Tieguonese government forces against protesters.
In the wake of violence in Tieguo, nearly all foreign reporters, including those from Nyland, have been detained and deported from the country. Some, including one from Castleon, have still not been heard from and are declared missing.
President Dietrich-Hall spoke today in front of reporters on the issue, affirming that all Nyland reporters were accounted for but the fact that some foreign journalists were still not accounted for was an affront to human rights.
Following the speech made by the President, a spokesperson had this to say: "The office of the President has met with the Tieguonese ambassador several times in order to get to the bottom of this. This is not something we take lightly and all options are on the table."
The spokesperson did not answer questions with regards to what that last statement meant, but later in the day, the Nylander government announced official trade pressures on Tieguo, with a 5% tariff on agricultural goods and a 10% tariff on electronics and manufactured goods.
The Nylander government has not said what its goals are with regards to these pressures, but presumably they are to bring the Tieguonese government to the table with regards to foreign journalists in their custody.
As well, the government has been mum on the assault on protesters that began the crisis in the first place, but the spokesperson said the return of foreign journalists to their countries of origin is the first priority of the Nyland government, though they sympathize with all who are fighting against oppression and desire a peaceful resolution in Tieguo and will do their best to work to that end.
