The Rijeke Prison Complex, one of Vrigny’s oldest and largest prisons has been suddenly shut down. Due to its decaying state, prisoners had been in inhumane conditions. These prisoners have been transferred to other nearby correctional facilities, and if needed, to other higher security prisons in other parts of the country.

This prison complex was used by the Stratocracy to imprison any opposition to the dictatorship, as well as to perform secret experiments in some of the unfortunate residents. Anneliese Bow, the President of the Republic herself had been imprisoned back then in this same complex due to activism against the Stratocracy. The leader in question has shown her numerous scars in her arms from some of the experiments performed on her. She has stated that such an evil faculty has to be dismantled, never to be built again in Vrignyan history, and shall be replaced, if Vrignyan prisons are overcrowded, with “humane” correctional facilities. (Imagine Norway-style prisons).

RAFI:

—(Domestic) So the agreement reached by Syd G. Payton and NTRiley- … (hold on) …
Apparently the joke is “inappropriate” for RAFI standards.
In short, the agreement is that substantive institutional reforms and consolidations will be undertaken before codifying a minimal constitution.
I’m particularly interested in 2-B-I-d regarding the adoptions of orphans and whether that will lead to formal legislation of LGBT+ rights.

—(International) HM Cabinet for External Affairs has released an “acceleration” plan of diplomatic re-opening which is…substantial… Actually.
I’m not joking, I’ve had no idea that RANASA had this many expertised people for the diplomatic corpus just laying around…
Anyway, the list includes some 30-40 countries where they plan to open formal diplomatic offices in.
Among them, some 21 are “priority” which just means that it will be an ambassadorial mission rather than a consulate. The Grand Duke, Dawson Ernst, will also be visiting these countries. The first of which will be…actually go and look. If it wasn’t expected, you win a prize.

— Finally, my childhood friend had published a book today, which I encourage you to read here.
Criticism, mentioned in the NAACN-NSBB report, which is focused on the fluidity of style – are a bit dim. The sense of no stasis is intentionally present to transfer the sense of anomie and ennui felt full-lungly in the era post-1958.

The Vrignyan Parliament has just passed a new Healthcare Act, introduced by the Green Party of Vrigny. This measure, focused on Organ Transplantation, will change Vrigny’s Opt-in system into an Opt-out system.

Until now, Vrignyan citizens had to register as organ donors if they so desired, and had to go through bureocracy which could last months. Despite the overwhelming support of organ donation throughout Vrignyan citizens, up to 53% of citizens were registered in the National Transplant Department. With this new measure, all adult Vrignyan citizens will be registered into the NTD by default. Only those who express their refusal during their life or in their will to donate their organs will be removed from the department.

This measure is expected to improve the waiting times of patients in need of organ transplantation, and improve the capabilities of the Vrignyan Public Healthcare to treat more complex patient cases.

Federal Navy: KFNS Tappatahwee to be Scuttled

Pohnarras Sound, Krauanagaz - The Federal Navy earlier today announced its decision to scuttle the disabled KFNS Tappatahwee, which has languished off the Pohnarrasi coast since February 10 following a devastating anti-ship missile strike by militants. The decision comes after weeks of deliberation and assessment of the vessel’s condition, as well as considerations for safety and environmental concerns.

The KFNS Tappatahwee, a Kevluarital-class littoral ship, was rendered inoperable after sustaining heavy damage from an anti-ship missile attack in February, resulting in the loss of 27 Krauanagazan sailors and the injury of 21 others. The incident sent shockwaves through the nation in the early days of the Pohnarras crisis and demonstrated the fallibility of the Krauanagazan military. Since the attack, efforts to salvage and repair the vessel have been underway with naval engineers and technicians assessing the extent of the damage and exploring potential options for restoration. However, after a thorough evaluation, naval authorities have determined that the Tappatahwee’s structural integrity has been compromised, “beyond feasible repair,” necessitating the ultimate decision to scuttle the vessel.

One of the new statues set up in Vimen was defaced, pushed over and broken by members of the Z-D Kresbo. Said statue was a rendition of Vrigny’s Blood Dragon taking flight, representing Vrigny’s national animal. The culprits that destroyed the statue have been arrested and charged with causing damage to public property. They are defending their innocence by saying that: “religion has no place in Vrigny”, although this statue has no religious purpose or meaning, especially since the Zarkanxiz religion is practically extinct since the early to mid-1800s.
