[CP] Changes within the Defense ministry

Day 2,645, 06:58 Published in Belgium Belgium by eBelgian Presidency

Dear Citizens of Belgium,

As most of you will have noticed there have been some problems within the Defense ministry. Santiago hasn't been the right hand man I hoped him to be, he has mixed up his interests in BSS and the opposition with the interests as the Belgian minister of Defense. I've given several signals that I didn't agree with this behavior but even so it continued, this made clear to me that he isn't the right person for the job in my government.

I'd like to thank him for trying, as I specifically asked for him to join my government but it's better that our paths part here. I've appointed Critically as new Minister of Defense as he is willing and communicative. I trust him to successfully lead to ministry to the end of the month.




About the training war which was being planned, unfortunately it hit a dead end for now as it took too long for the cooperating country to arrange it on their side. I've consulted congress and together we decided it was better to first wait out the congress elections. To get some wars to fight in from the Belgian regions we are currently signing a MPP with Chile which is expected to have a lot of wars soon.



A few announcements:

- Cuba will stay in Brussels for the duration of the congress elections, after that the new congress will have to debate whatever to do with the Island-state.

- You'll most likely be burning with big questions about the events this week. 'Ask your president!' by filling this form http://goo.gl/forms/5OIDi5OI2x and it will be answered in an article.

- A big thanks to Elynea for sponsoring 1/3th of the money required for the MPP!

That's all for now, time to work for a better eBelgium 😉

A salute to you o7,
