April 7, 4111

Over the next 6 months, Kalistan will be holding military drills within the National Borders and adjacent oceans of Kalistan.  As per treaty requirements, official notice will be made to Kalistan's neighbors about the scope of the drills, but an overview of the drills is presented here.  Kalistan's defense Minister, Militia Cpl Gina White issued the following statement.

"The Standing Forces of Kalistan, supported by the Revolutionary Socialist Militia of Kalistan, will be conducting land and naval drills beginning in June and lasting through December of this Year.  These drills are routine maneuvers, and will not approach the borders with our neighbors.  All drills will occur in Odufaray District and in the Odufart Sea between Odufray and Ananto.  These drills will focus on coordination between regular and irregular military maneuver and techniques.  The militia will handle all indirect fire on land, while the Regular forces will focus on mechanized cav and maneuver.  At sea, Militia forces will focus on fastboat pack techniques, while the Regular Navy will focus primarily on air supremacy over the Sea.

"As per our treaty agreements, Kalistan invites Baltusia and New Endralon to send contingents and observers to our war games.  If a contingent is sent, we ask them to ensure that they coordinate with the Defense Ministry to ensure that the contingent can fit in with the overall strategic aims of the drills.  All observers will be welcomed."
