10 February 5685, Wiel, Kingdom of Wrnuke
The current instability in occupied Amudim are the cause of great concern in Wiel, the cabinet has convened in several emergency sessions to discuss steps the last few months and with the oil fires disrupting trade from, to, and through Sholemberg the Ministries for Finance and Economy have entered close cooperation. The escalation in Northern Majatra has also brought an awkward windfall for the Jelbic Kingdom, as shipping companies increasingly avoid the Migrant's Pass and seek alternative routes many opt to pay the passing fee for Wrnuke's Grand Canal. These numbers have grown to such an extend that the office of the Grand Canal has registered record numbers the last six months. Recently security has been gradually increased around the Grand Canal with the cabinet stating that there is "reasonable doubt that foreign parties wish to expand the instability in Majatra by targeting vital infrastructure". No further evidence was brought forward to reinforce the claim. The increase of customers for the Grand Canal has positively surprised the cabinet, who were expecting far worse after the deteriorating situation in occupied Amudim. Nonetheless, the Foreign Ministry has condemned the current situation in former Beiteynu and has called upon "all colonisers" to vacate the region and let "the Yeudi People regain their independence". The government remains firm on the position that all unrest and bloodshed

On top of that Minister Trmékez, who by now has become known as the architect of Wrnuke's reviving economy, announced a further investment of over 100 million in economic subsidies. The package was made possible by a special deal with several banks and will see private businesses being able to start up far easier than before. According to the ministry the economics working together with Trmékez are looking at other options too: "It is vital for local businesses and our standard of living to maintain a flexible and strong economy at all turns, we will be utilising further funds to grow our economy in other ways." Wiel wishes to avoid a system where they become too dependant on the Grand Canal, a future package will most likely look at diversifying the portfolio of the government. Furthermore, diplomats have sought contact with the authorities in Tel Bira for deeper talks with Prefect Anzlék-Zahr inviting her colleagues over for a special session in Wiel. Whether the independent banking city will accept this invitation is yet to be seen, as they strongly wish to maintain their neutral position.
