STATEMENT ON THE USE OF EMU CURRENCY IN REITZMAG

The Government of the Kingdom of Reitzmag greets everyone a very Happy New Year and congratulates the members of the European Monetary Union on the start of their unified currency's validity. The United Dominions of Icholasen, as a member of the EMU and has control over Copala City and New Saint Regina and as part of the Treaty of Buckingham, will implement the EMU as the recognized and used currency in the leased territories on a step by step basis. The Government had begun with the implementation of the devolution since October last year. And with this, we also want to make it easier for Nicolezians and Reitzmics in the leased areas to go to Reitzmag by allowing the use of the EMU Currency in the country with its equivalent exchange rate. This will take effect from February 28, 2021 in a step by step basis. Further information on the effectivity of the validity of the EMU Currency in the country may be found in the website of the Treasury Ministry and the Bank of Reitzmag.

GOVERNMENT TO CONDUCT INVESTIGATION WHETHER FISHERMEN'S CLAIMS ARE TRUE

Hampton City, Dec 24 2020 | Despite being Christmas Eve, the Government had decided to conduct an investigation on what happened and whether the Inimicians were really blockading Reitzmic Fishermen from going to their previous fishing areas. The Emperor of Inimicus through a twitter post accused the fishermen of illegal fishing but the government has not commented on this yet. They however had cleared that they will not do anything until the investigation has concluded. For the meantime, the government ordered surveillance vessels to scour the areas where Reitzmic fishermen usually go while the Reitzmic Coast Guard remain vigilant in escorting the fishermen to their respective areas to prevent any unexpected happenings. Parliament had also been prorogued for the holidays as the emergency bill remained on hold and will be debated further next year.

"Now you are speaking softly Mr. Juncker, trying to please me as I have told the truth. Although from your words, I had been advised a while ago that the National Security Council and the Cabinet had voted that we will unilaterally move those islands closer to our coast and continue the operations to the designated area for Phase 2. We will agree as long as we will be given commercial access to the Kiel Canal which serves as our main trade route without any disturbance. That canal decides the future of our country and we want access back as soon as possible. And here is the variation of a treaty proposed by my Cabinet which had been wired just a while ago." said Simon before presenting the draft via projector.

REITZMIC FISHERMEN REPOR HARASSMENT FROM INIMICIAN MILITARY VESSELS WITH VIDEO EVIDENCE, ASKING GOVERNMENT TO ACT SWIFTLY

Hampton City, Dec 23 2020 | Fishermen and their union representatives had started a protest in front of Parliament seeking for the government to hear their cries. Multiple reports of harassment from Inimician Military Vessels had been given evidence and reached the attention of Parliament. MPs had since been called back from Christmas Break and started debating on an emergency bill to sanction Inimicus and deploy all military assets under high alert in case of an attack. The Prime Minister also commented while on vacation that this hostility of the Inimicians are very concerning and unforgivable. He had asked the fishermen to remain calm as the Reitzmic Coast Guard had been ordered to escort them during their operations to prevent more incidents like the ones caught on videos.

"Listen Mr. Juncker, the Treaty of Buckingham states that National Laws in the Kingdom of Reitzmag apply on Copala City and all the other autonomous territories. They passed a law to establish the Governor-General as the head of state which means that this man is in fact the legal Head of State of Copala City. Next Mr. Juncker, you claim to have helped in the negotiation of the Spanish-Reitzmic Trade War, however the truth is you don't. It was me who invited Mr. Aguilar to Europolis and I didn't even invite you, but then you randomly popped into the scene and then saying you finally fixed that problem! And now you also think those islands are a threat to the other countries when we can see that the United Duchies had allowed foreign military ships to the Caspian for an exclusive access. We were concerned about that and in fact that was the main reason why we were making these islands. Which is, in case of an attack, they will find it harder to navigate through these islands which are frontline strongholds of our Armed Forces. Now if you want us to remove those islands if you want to then we will do it in exchange for no foreign military access to the Caspian in any way possible, including the Kiel Canal." said Simon as he sat down.

"That is what I want, if you can't make for that then we don't have a deal!" he shouts while sitting down.
