Alessandro, Imperial Grand Prince of the Crown of Istalia
Quote:Excellencies, High Officers, Distinguished Delegates,
It is with deep gratitude and sincere esteem that I address you today, in this prestigious venue of the Conference of Altéa. I would first like to pay homage to His Majesty King Romulus of Egelion, not only for hosting this important meeting, but also for the hospitality reserved for our Istalian delegation. Even more, I would like to express my personal thanks, and that of the entire Istalian people, for the constant and resolute support that the Kingdom of Egelion has guaranteed to our nation in the fight for reunification. At a time when our people were divided, oppressed and torn by conflict, Egelion proved to be a true friend of Istalia, championing the cause of our freedom and our unity.
Today, our presence at this conference represents a precise commitment: Istalia wants to re-establish its role in the international community after the dark years of the communist dictatorship, which dragged our country into chaos and devastation. With immense sacrifices, our people have regained their freedom and begun a long and difficult process of reconstruction. Now, we wish to turn the page and repair the damage inflicted by the previous regime, reaffirming our commitment to peace, stability and cooperation among nations and joining the international community in denuncing any sort of authoritarian and dictatorial regime that oppresses the poeple and deprive them of their freedom.
In this spirit, I would like to express Istalia’s full support for the democratic government of Kundrati, which today courageously faces the threat of a dictatorship. We, as Istalia, know well what it means to fight against a tyranny that suffocates freedom and brings an entire nation to ruin. Our hearts and our solidarity are with the Kundrati people, and we hope that the international community will not remain indifferent to their struggle.
However, the main reason that prompted us to participate in the Conference of Altéa concerns a crisis that is putting our fragile stability to the test: the question of Solentian refugees. During the civil war that devastated Solentia, almost 500,000 refugees were brought into our country by the previous puppet government of the Grand Emirate of Quanzar. But it was not an act of humanity: their intent was not to alleviate the suffering of the Solentians, but rather to profit of this opportunity to alter the ethnic composition of our territory, permanently settling populations of Majatran culture and strengthening that apartheid regime that, before its defeat, brutally discriminated against the native Istalian population.
Istalia, still on its knees after the civil war, does not have the means to manage such a number of refugees. And, beyond the economic and logistical difficulties, there is another crucial point: our country does not want to take on this population, so profoundly alien to our culture. Furthermore, among these refugees, in fact, thousands of Ahmadi fundamentalists have came in the country, whose acts of barbarity have already sown mourning and pain in Istalia.
For this reason, we appeal to the international community to provide us with concrete support, both logistical and diplomatic, to resolve this crisis. We ask for assistance in organizing the repatriation of these refugees to Solentia or, alternatively, their transfer to nations willing and able to welcome them.
Istalia looks to the future with determination and hope. But in order to build a tomorrow of peace and prosperity, we must be able to heal the wounds of the past and defend our identity and our social balance. We trust in the support of the nations gathered here, and in their willingness to work together to find a just and fair solution to this crisis.
Thank you.
