Chancellor Apotecarius speaks about Akitsu, Svarna coups
The Chancellor spoke at length about Akitsu and Svarna Surya and the future of relations

ANDARIELUM, Angleterre - In a speech before the Angleterre State Chamber of Commerce today, Chancellor Aerandariel Apotecarius blasted the so-called "government of Akitsu" by calling it "illegitimate" and "outright obnoxious to think the rest of the world is a bunch of blasted fools".

Mr. Apotecarius particularly ripped the new Akitsian premier Hayato Yamaguchi with a rather terse statement, saying, "Mr. Yamaguchi must take the rest of the world to be fools if he thinks his so-called 'elections' and new 'constitution' will earn him anything but indignation. He is a sham. He does not represent the Akitsian people, who are right now living in fear of this rat fink and his hoodlums." It was the strongest statement yet made by an Angirisian official on the subject of the Akitsu coup, which has drawn very widespread criticism from around the world ranging from calls of illegitimacy to potential sanctions.

But Akitsu wasn't the only target of the Chancellor's barbs. Svarna Surya too, long an adversary of the Angirisian Empire in Ostara, has also been back in the news with a coup of their own but this time it would appear on the surface that the situation there is different than what it was in Akitsu considering that conditions there are slightly improved. Despite this, the Chancellor took the coup leaders there to task saying, "Under no circumstances is it okay for anyone, military or no, to usurp a standing government that was chosen. Svarna Surya had begun to make strides towards a better future for its people including more freedom and better economic policies but this coup shrouds that in mystery and potential disaster. Shame on them."

It was very strange to see Mr. Apotecarius act so aggressively in this speech today, considering his more passive approach to foreign policy. But the recent actions in a once-major ally have set off a firestorm in Angirisian government offices that now "military intervention" is being floated more and more. Analysts say that the usurper government is likely to begin restricting political freedoms and possibly be more restrictive economically, which will fan the flames even more against them as they try to establish some measure of legitimacy in the eyes of the world. However, only a few right-wing states in the world - namely Oslanburg and Nerysia - have recognized the new government, which has emboldened the usurpers further.
