NEW HOPE SOUTH, SAMCHORAGE - As part of a series of informal meetings with other heads of state, the Secretary-General of Congressional Parliament (CP) flew to Samchorage to request a creative solution for the purpose of defusing the Shannli fiasco, known as "the Phecal Matter". Instead, CP was informed of Samchoragean and Miketonian grievances concerning Neorikspolitik instead, as the Miketonian ambassador to Samchorage was present in the Presidential Palace at the time.

Initially the meeting yielded a Samchoragean proposal similar to an East El-Hussaqi idea in which the threat of force would be used. However, the agenda of the meeting quickly changed to the current series of reforms concerning Congressional Parliament and then to the state of international affairs.

For too long, the President of Samchorage stated, have the Riksholmic limitations stood, giving rise to an incredible disparity of wealth and power between the Great Powers and the rest of the Mapp. He lamented the arrogant and dismissive attitude of the GX towards the Neorikspolitik process and emphasized the futility of negotiating within the framework the GX had earlier established. The President added that the onus is no longer on the Riksholmic powers, who have suffered over two years of devastating military sanctions, but is on the GX instead. The Miketonian ambassador seconded the Samchoragean claims.

Accordingly, he urged CP in the strongest possible terms to pursue the matter of Neorikspolitik further. The Secretary-General promised to bring the issue up before the entire Mapp once the Phecal Matter involving Shannli was resolved.

On a side note, the Secretary-General then flew to Denisia where the Amrylin was reportedly interested in using Hanseatic influence to defuse the crisis. CP had also contacted Lindsholm and Marcusburg but both countries had urgent matters to attend to and could not provide an audience for the Secretary-General.
