Beidel starts Paperwork Offensive

Reichskanzler Beidel addressing the nation.

Following Months of diplomatic tensions between Beiteynu and the Dual Monarchy, Reichskanzler Beidel has raised an army of lawyers in tandem with the corporate elements of the government of Narikaton and Darnussia to start a paperwork offensive against Beiteynu trying to get the Sedek courts to clarify certain administrative boundaries between the Neset (the yeudish trade network), Yishelem and the other Nisrads. Pundits explain that this is a direct legal attack against the central government of Beiteynu as its authority has been diminishing already and that the triggering of constitutional cases is basically another heavy salve of state-crisis fuel against the failing Medinat State. Looking deeper behind the courtain of verbal attacks and legal shenanigans, this all is still a symptom of Beiteynu’s series of diplomatic blunders of the past two years and the steady rising of the primacy of diplomacy in Bannerhafen. The demands on delivering Wrntukai to the Dual Monarchy have still not been met instead the Foreign Ministry of Beiteynu is acting like they do not have the information their closest ally wants. While the actions against each other are somewhat limited due to economic interest, rumors have it that a shadow-war is brewing. Narikaton and Darnussia are moving a lot of classified assets and are shuffling budgetary documents around the Senate to obfuscate the financial papertrail of their current activities. Some suspect that certain Bills now dubbed “Berry-Bills” which officially aim to help the transformation toward strawberrys and other cashcrops, to win against the stupid Xsampan reds, in Nährrode are really just a front for military and intelligence expenses which would bloat the defence spending of the last few years even more.
