[K+] The Hungarian viewpoint on the recent conflict with Argentina

Dear players of the New World!


Hungary recently got into a very serious debate with Argentina about four German regions. After this, VyC ARG has published an article with the Argentinian viewpoint. I haven’t really felt this accurate (VyC ARG openly said he hates eHungary from the very beginning, so he might be biased because of this), so I thought I would share the Hungarian viewpoint on this case.

Although I'm not writing this article in the name of my government, but I had direct access to most of the information presented in this article, so I can say that they're coming from reliable sources.

Let’s start this at the very beginning. eHungary had a rental agreement with eGermany for four regions (Bavaria, Baden-Wurttemberg, Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate) since February of 2015. Keep in mind that Argentina knows about this agreement, and recognizes it. (At least their MoD did in a comment.)
For a long time, things went just fine, we had the regions and we paid our rent. But then, in last October, Greece decided to land with an AS here, and take those regions from us. When called out on it, they claimed it was a revenge for our past war against UK (which was an aid for the proAsteria France), and that they were saving Germany from us.
Their AS succeeded, and as it later turned out, this was part of the diversionary actions aimed to help the conquest of Serbia, which also succeeded, and in which they also took part with putting COs, and fighting on Croatian side.
Greece once again proved that it is an antiAsteria, proEDEN country, but some members of Asteria still maintain relations with them. Even when they were members of Asteria, most of their damage always went to our opponents, and they have never attacked any exEDEN countries to help the alliance. Then when they left, they continued to fight against Asteria even more openly, but some members still maintained relations with them. And then in October, when they led these attacks against eHungary and then helped Croatia and its allies to conquer Serbia, some countries still didn’t seem to get it, and still maintained relations with them. Romania dropped the MPP, understanding the seriousness of the situation, but other countries like Argentina, Brazil, Portugal, and China didn’t feel like doing the same. The biggest mistake of Asteria in the last months was that these countries were not forced to drop the MPP with Greece, an enemy of Asteria. (Not forcing it was a result of Serbian internal problems, mostly, but that's an other story.)

But back to the topic. Time went on, and although we tried quite a few times, we couldn’t take the regions back.
In January, Greece got into a bigger conflict with both Macedonia and Bulgaria. Because of this and the high determination in the regions, we could’ve had a chance to get the regions back, if we attacked, and they also knew this. But then Argentina landed with an AS in Germany, and went on to have the German regions given to them by Greece.
When asked, Argentina said that they came here to attack the UK. (Which is the same thing that Greece claimed they had a revenge on us for… And now, when Argentina has the same goal, they suddenly don’t care that much.) Oh, also Greece said that they were liberating Germany from us, the oppressors, then went on to give their territories to Argentina, who is an enemy of Germany…
But let’s continue. We were actually happy, because we thought that we can have an arrangement with Argentina more easily, because they’re at least in the same bloc with us, and they don’t need the four regions that we care about, anyway. So, we contacted them, and although most of their gov ignored us, we could start discussions with their MoFA (The Baron Samedi). He was pretty chill about it, and we agreed on that they’ll give back the regions, and we can start the first RW on February 6th. He even mentioned that we have to put CO on the battle to avoid their players, who hit there for TP, winning it accidentally.

Then when the day came, and we started the RW they called us out on it, and started hating on us, like they haven’t approved. They used all the popular excuses - their CP doesn’t speak English well, their MoFA didn’t consult with them before making the agreement with us, etc. The result was the same; they didn’t want to give us the regions, and blamed us, when the mistake was with their own internal communications.

In the meantime, the Argentinean CP proposed an MPP with us. It passed in our congress, but not in theirs…

Since then, every time we tried to renew talks about the regions, they just ignored our messages, and when they finally answered, it was a straight up no, without any sign that they’re willing to make a compromise. Slovenia and Serbia volunteered to mediate between us, but they didn’t have more luck than us.
Which raises the question… Why is the Asteria member eArgentina trying to block the bonuses of the proAsteria eHungary, when they don’t have any use of those regions? It looks like that its sole reason is just to mess with us.

Although our government wanted to go on the diplomatic route, our people really got tired of all this. Our government has been trying to get our bonuses back by negotiation and diplomacy for months, without any success. We even tried with Greece, because some Asteria country said that Greece told them they’re willing to agree with us. Then when we got in talks with them, they just tried to win time to give the regions to Argentina, before we could go for them.
So seeing how unsuccessful the talks with Argentina went, our people decided that it was enough.
So we went, we started RWs, and we put COs, yes. But as you can see, Argentina did more than enough to deserve it. I’m genuinely surprised that after all this, they’re still trying to make it look like they’re the victims in this situation. And then I haven’t said a word about the rumours that they’re planning an attack against us with Greece and Romania, or the one that they’ve messaged countries in the Asteria bloc to drop the MPP with us…

So again, yes, we started RWs in the German regions which are currently occupied by Argentina. But that doesn’t mean that we’re the agressors, as Argentina is trying to put it. This conflict started when they came here, and knowingly blocked us from our bonuses, either because Greece asked them to do so, or because they hate us that much that they want to mess with us without any reason. I personally can’t decide which one is worse.

Therefore I'd like to ask you, dear international readers, to don't believe the lies spread about this situation. Because I understand it may seem agressive that Hungarians organize military actions against Argentina, but as you could read in my article, this wasn't unprovoked or undeserved. We were trying to deal with this problem the peaceful way, many times, but their hostile and unfriendly attitude made us have no choice. Any other country would have done the same with a country openly harming their interests.

Having said that, it’s nothing personal on our side. As soon as we get the last region we need, you can be sure we’ll stop with all military actions. We just want what's ours, that's it.

Thank you for your attention!
