Reacting to the conflict between Xsampa and the Jelbic Empire that broke out over the establishment of a military base by Beiteynu, Director Diarmaido now found words of to adress the matter: “Although I know many wish for me to do so let me be clear: I am not going to blame either side for this conflict. Instead I want to appeal to both of them. This conflict has the potential to rip Zardic society apart. Neighbours are turned against comrades. Sadly there have already been first incidents of violence between members of Xsampan and Jelbic minorities inside Zardugal. This will only worsen once people who are not directly affected, start sympathising with one or the other side. It is the following role in which I speak to you. As a concerned friend of both parties, who asks them to reflect on the consequences of their behaviour not only in their own nations. It is also this role that gives me confidence to make the following offer, despite the fact that I am aware of the lack of any direct influence of my nation on any of the conflict parties. If Zardugal can assist in finding a peaceful agreement, it would be my honor to arrange this"
While many people who fear an open conflict between our Jelbic neighbours and our Xsampan comrades lauded the Director's efforts there is also a significant opposition against his diplomatic endeavours. They clearly see the Jelbic Empire or to be precise its member, Beiteynu at fault and criticize Diarmaido's supposed ignorance and opportunism. Most prominently Commissar of Foreign Affairs Mario Gropo was against the "display of pretended neutrality" as he called it. He also stated that the Director had clearly broken with the political conventions of the Executive Committee by going it alone diplomatically in this matter. According to him, Diarmaido had clearly overstepped the boundaries of his authority at this point.
It is already clear that this rift has the potential to have a major impact on the future direction of the government and its composition. A failure of Diarmaido's diplomatic efforts would probably cost him all his remaining political capital.
