Their oppression may be covered up well and good, but the lives of Scandinavian reports, the aforementioned agents of our Kingdom working to publish this atrocity from a personal level. It is sorrowful that such endangerment turned far too personal, and their lives were likely taken by the shadowy hand of Russian "Police". The Kingdom of Scandinavia must stress that our state of war is no indication of growing belligerence, for it is a singular affair in the defense of a people under fire. To expand on this, the Kingdom of Scandinavia extends talks with the United Kingdom as friendly, cooperative partners in the international world to affirm our plans for continued harmony. - [i][b]Gustav I, King of Scandinavia[/b][/i]
