Unprecedented, the DMCLIS [TX-feed link] spokesman Yarrid Ban-Gatto yesterday chose to support the Iron Empire's long standing claim for equal votes in the Sho-Caudal Irrat. Despite the DMCLIS already having a full vote, Kee Ban-Gatto said "it is time to fully open invite our arms and hearts to all entire people of Sho-Caudal and take a final step away from old prejudices."

Since the Second Iron Curtain Conflict, the Iron Empire and its allied Ceridisean Duchies have had only a limited voting right in the Sho-Caudal Irrat as part of the terms of surrender in 3867. Over the last ten years, the Iron Empire have refused to participate in any inter-state discussions and negotiations there, claiming often that it is the playground of a Free State Elitist Club and meddlesome Shan.
A return of a full vote to the Iron Empire and its allied Duchies would seriously alter the current political balance in the Irrat.Despiite being a reasonably toothless forum for peaceful interaction between the Sho-Caudal people, scin Bramhu Du'buhn predicts serious crippling of the current political progress there if the heavy hand of the Iron Empire would once again be allowed to veto decisions. |
