JASANASBURG CELEBRATES THE END OF RECONSTRUCTION.

Ever since the end of the Civil War, Garindina has been in shambles. But because of multiple reconstruction decisions by King Aleksandr and Queen Nadia V, Garindina has finally fully reconstructed itself. Jasanasburg was the last city in the United Federation to finish reconstruction due to its size. After the death of King Aleksandr back in 2013, Queen Nadia V has passed multiple reconstruction bills since she was crowned.

 

Jasanasburg celebrated with late-night parades and a fireworks show. Mayor Iryna Cheban announced a new monument dedicated to the hard-working people of the city. With the city full of block parties and festivities, it is recommended that tourist to visit the city before the end of the week to join the festivities.

In other News, the Federal Council announced a tax break upto 5% off of income tax. This shows that the Grivna may become fully stable in the coming months.

OVERHAUL OF THE MILITARY TRAINING SYSTEM 

Marshall General of the Garindinan United Federation Aleksandr Torosov made an announcement earlier today that change is coming to the Garindinan Military Training System. Not much has been disclosed about these changes except that the mandatory Military Service has been lowered form 2 years to just 10 months.

It has also been stated that the age of drafting civilians has been raised to 21. This change was introduced by the National Security Minister Josif Nikitin which stated that 'People are not fully mature until the age of 21'. Minister Nikitin called a meeting with the Queen to discuss this decision.

MORE NEWS ABOUT THE NEW MILITARY TRAINING SYSTEM 

Last week, a new military training system was announced and details have just been released. The system is now more disciplined and difficult. With training lasting a full 3 months and longer hours. Many disapprove of this change but Aleksandr Torosov says they are necessary. 

"The deal with these changes is to help better prepare our soldiers for the defense of the nation." -Aleksandr 

The effects of these changes vary over the 4 military sectors. With Special Forces taking the brut of these effects. 

"Training was already difficult to root out the ones that don't want to be here. This just makes it more difficult for the ones that want to be here"- Special Forces Operator

Along with these changes, the military has chosen a new main assault rifle, the MSBS.

"It's a semiautomatic rifle with a 30-round detachable mag. With the ability to switch to a rate of fire of  700–900 rounds/min."

MARSHAL GENERAL ALEKSANDR TOROSOV ANNOUNCES NEW MILITARY OPERATION

Just one hour ago, Marshal General Alexandr Torosov announced a new military operation. The operation, code-named "Operation Snowfall," has been leaked, stating that the government has started researching technology for ICBMs.

Marshal General Alexandr Torosov has stated that this investment and research will help protect Garindina. Now, over to Igor and his interview with the Queen.

"Thank you, Rasia, and now, your majesty, why did the program start"?

"Yes, well, Garindina has always been lacking at the wurld stage in terms of a modern military. But since 2018, I've been trying to modernize our military, and the one thing we've really been lagging in are missiles.

"So how did you come up with the idea of Operation Snowfall?"

"Oh no, that was all Torosov's idea." "I only permitted it, and he put it into motion."

"Ok, so are there any other plans you have for further modernization?"

"There are rumors that the government is looking into nuclear energy,  are these rumors true?"

"Well, no. I will confirm that we are looking into cleaner energy and ways to make them more productive.  But we do not have the technology to study nuclear power. "

"Thank you for your time, Your Majesty."

"Your welcome."

"I'll send it back to you, Raisa."

Well, that was Igor and Queen Nadia V, and in other news, plans for a new national park in the West Glacial Territory are now underway with camp sites and trails being set up. That was all our time for today, Garindina, until next on the NNG.

FIRST DUMA ELECTIONS IN THE TWELVE OBLAST SCHEDULED FOR NEXT MONTH.

"Following Her Majesty’s speech, excitement about the first duma elections is high. With candidates already selected, there is much hope for the future of Garindina. But not everyone is so enthusiastic. A few members of the Federal Council are openly speaking against this decision, with many rallying behind them. It has become clear that there is a political divide in Garindina."

"Raisa, despite the Queen’s speech only being a half hour ago, many have already spoken their opinions. This has caused some to believe that the reforms that will counter corruption will just widen this political divide.

"You’re right, Igor, the "reformation," as the Queens call it, is causing some unwanted problems. But wait, we just received word that Queen Nadia has stated that “These elections will happen, even if the national guard needs to be deployed to voting stations” via social media.

"That is all for the news at noon; tune in later for the news at six."

10 KILLED IN KOGANGELSK RIOTS.

“Despite excitement for the upcoming elections, fears of Economic Collapse and the return of the old government are growing. As these fears grow, riots have broken out all over Garindina. In Kogangelsk, ten have been killed in these riots against the elections. These deaths have further enraged the people causing people to call for Queen Nadia’s abdication. In which she responded with this-“

 

”These elections were introduced for better governance at the local and regional levels. These riots are the result of corruption and exaggerated fears. To those who call for my abdication, I say this to you. I am the Queen of Garindina. I will not abdicate the throne for those who only seek power and wealth to take power. To those who have lost a loved one to these riots, I am sorry for your loss. When I announce my anti-corruption reforms on Saturday, all politicians suspected of corruption will be held in federal custody and investigated for possible corruption and criminal activity.”

 

”Raisa, do you support these elections? I know I do. More power to the people.”

”Yes Igor, I do. But those who fear economic collapse do have a valid reason. As corruption in Garindina goes farther than just in the government. In other news. In other new, arrest warrants have been issued for Minister Josif Nikitin and Head of the Anti-Corruption division, Stepan Sokolov on corruption charges. The police arrested Stephan Sokolov last night in his home in Braysk. Resulting in the Anti-Corruption and Bribery Agency to be dissolved.”
