CNN World News Report:
Troop movements continued throughout the Caspian region last month. The Russian Federation ordered the Chinese army to leave Russian soil but the Chinese were subsequently prevented from leaving by other Russian units. Vladimir Chekowski, President of the Russian Federation, has ordered a full investigation into the matter, but admits that the investigation will be somewhat hampered by the current European occupation of the Kremlin.

Note that both SA and EU are now "pre-nuclear" powers. During any building season (from Fall '01 onwards) these powers may order a build of an arsenal (in any controlled home supply center). They may do this only once, unless they make another "all units hold" order after the dismantling of that arsenal.

An announcement from the SALUTE spokeman, Chile de la Nuke:
"Due to the increasing global tensions that have taken place in recent times, SALUTE has found it necessary to establish a strong, nuclear
deterrent to any potential aggression against the vulnerable South American ecosystems. All friendly countries of the world (defined as
those countries recognizing SALUTE's rightful stewardship of special eco-resources throughout the world) may rest assured that they have
nothing to fear from SALUTE's newly established nuclear arsenal. even so, enemies of the environment should beware."

Extract from CNN World Report July 30, 2101:
"Yes David. In the past weeks, many of the military activities seen in recent months appear to have halted. Soldiers have scarcely been idle and there has been a tense shroud of secrecy in military sites in both South America and the European Union. While it is too early to say anything definitive, this reporter has begun to hear whispers of "Cold War II" in the halls of the United Nations. One can only hope that this can prevent the much-feared slide into World War III. The scenario is similar in structure to the Bay of Pigs incident in the mid-20th century, when famously assasinated US president John F. ... [click]"

CNN/Nike World News report:
Masheed Alaquaar of the Union of Arab States gave a speech today expressing what he terms "the growing international concern" about the recent decision of two of the world's superpowers to re-enter the nuclear era. Mr. Alaquaar asked (apparently rhetorically) if it is really possible that the leaders of the world were already forgeting the lessons of the "Cold Wars" of the 20th century and the Great Malasian Disaster of only 30 years ago. "If we do not all work towards peace," said Mr. Alaquaar, "we are surely destined to have war."
Meanwhile, Spokespersons from the UN Committee on International Crisis Management commented that they were well aware of the situation And were giving it careful study.

CNN/Nike World News Report:
It's official! The International Panel of Neo-Antirevisionist Historians declared this period World War III. Said their spokesperson Dr. Eliza Heathrod, "All indications are that the current military conflicts have progressed beyond normal border disputes. The massive loss of human life and the nuclear destruction of international waterways clearly indicate that these are temporal periods most suitably termed 'World War' in accordance with Pickerton's Military Conflict Scale, which, in academic circles is the most widely accepted categorization system for military operations."

Greenpeace International announced that the Nuclear Devestation Area of the Greater North Atlantic (NDAGNA) has expanded to include coastal areas of North America. Says their spokeswoman Gina Turbali, "We have always claimed that the devestation of our planet's waters would ultimately create ruin on land as well. It is a terrible pity that this has now been proven correct." Contributions and food relief for the victims of the Eastern US Nuclear disaster are now being collected (tax deductable).

The government in exile acknowledges the British origin of the nuclear device, but still added "that it is consistent with Kurdish tactics" that they separatist movement may have enlisted the aid of the British and Russian military forces.

CNN/Nike World News Report (12 July 2103):
Several of the world's leading environmental organizations reported that the regions of nuclear devestation -- once though limited to only a few waterways -- have spread to substantially populated land areas. The alliance of environmental groups warned of potentially severe social and economic consequences if the spread of the destruction is not halted or even reversed. CREED (The Committee for Responsible Economic and Environmental Development, an international trade organization) refered to such reports as "typical anti-business, alarmist drivel" and urged further study rather than "knee-jerk" reactions to these few recent unfortunate events.

A statement from the EU:
December 29, 2103 London
We are pleased to announce that the previous oppressive regime that has held Europe in its grip for the last five years was overthrown in an almost bloodless coup last evening. The TWD fighters have temporarily assumed control of the EU government until such a time that democratic elections can be held. In the meantime, the following release summarizes the positions of the new governing body.
(1) Understanding that nuclear devastation has to end, TWD has put a moratorium on further extranational nuclear testing.
(2) Recognizing that fractured continents do not a happy populace make, TWD will endevour to regain SEU from the African hordes.
(3) Yearning for a world without war, TWD will not assume control or attempt to assume control of any foreign or neutral supply centres
(4) Determined to actively bring peace, TWD will push for a complete cessation of hostilities (after a few conditions have been met)

Many thanks to the retiring leader of the People's Republic of Asia. Pete made a valiant attempt to defend his homeland against relentless and overwhelming assaults from the North (RF), the South (GA), and the East (SA). Tragically, his nation has now perished to the coarse avarice of other world powers. We'll miss your supply of supply centers Pete. :-)

A public service message from the International Brotherhood for Peaceful Co-existence:
"In these modern times of strife, couldn't we all just take a few moments from our busy lives to consider the perspective of our neighbors. When we first react out of hostility or anger, conflict follows which cheapens our own level of self-respect even as we may devestate our enemy. The adage of 'live as you would have others live' has never been more apt. To a more peaceful world. Thank you for listening."

News analysis by Jenny Philip, CNN/Nike News desk (May 13, 2104):
Ever since the infamous Indian nuclear tests of 1998, there has been a consensus among the world's leading powers that only having a nuclear arsenal was adequate for international respect. We can see the recent world events as simply the logical extension of that original notion. With all of the world's superstates now either nuclear or nuclear capable, it remains to be seen what further means will be employed to create the next exclusive club of international superpowers.

Have your nuclear summers been feeling more and more like nuclear winters?
Perhaps it's time you switched to Neutonia Missles! Not only do we reduce the amount of nuclear fallout, we are certified to effect only minimal climate change. After all, in these times of insecurity, isn't that just what your country needs?

Turner Financial Network Bulletin (April 9, 2105):
Real Estate prices have been reported to have escalated to unprecedented levels in the Yakutskaya region. Andrej Kamolov, a local business leader, spoke of the unaffordability within the business and private housing sectors. "It's virtually impossible to rent decent property at this point, but what alternatives are there?" The region is experiencing a boom of investment from individuals concerned about nuclear instability elsewhere in Eurasia.

CNN/Nike World News report, 23 March 2106:
The leading ambassadors of the European Union and The South American Alliance concluded talks this morning with a press release. In it they announced that full cooperation and friendship has been established between the two superpowers. Trade barriers will be systematically reduced and "the long years of international warfare are behind us forever". A top team of historians has been appointed to write new editions of history texts explaining how the establishment of joint world control to the new South American and European Alliance actually improved world conditions for the majority of the world's population. An expert committee will be shortly appointed to determine the best course of action with respect to the roughly 48% of the earth's surface which is currently uninhabitable owing to the recent conflicts.
