Press Release
On behalf of the United States President, it will be my duty to explain the summation of conclusions the White House Staff has come to terms on regarding the North Korean Crisis. Since North Korea has fallen silent on the United States' demands concerning the blunt indefinite ceasefire declaration as well as the immediate approval of American trade agreements, and to protect national security on this matter, the Department of Defense and Pentagon have decided that a full blockade will be placed on the entirety of the North Korean border with the exception to the Northwestern border adjacent to China. This land/naval blockade will restrict the movement of ALL goods, imports and exports to shut down the nations economy as it comes to a decision on whether it wants to proceed with war or peace; yes, it is that simple of a decision. The Russian Federation has agreed to fully militarily aid the United States in this blockade as it blockades the border adjacent to its own nation on the Northeastern corner. The information the Russian Government disclosed with their public is stating that over 150 000 troops are at the ready as well as 8 000 fully functional tanks. The South Korean military will also aid the US in the blockade by blockading the Southern border and their troops will be accompanied by 30 000 American Armed Forces including Army and Marine Reconnaisance. The British military has agreed to back the US militarily in terms of ground support and armory and is in the process of transporting 15 000 troops of their own armed forces. We are calling out the Chinese government for military support in this situation, hoping, of course, that this blockade yields a diplomatic result but in case it does not the world will be ready for North Korea's potential uncivilized hostility. This action is entirely defensive and the North Korean lands will not be breached unless a first strike is implemented by the North Korean military. More information will be disclosed later this week.
United States Secretary of State Mark Dille
Comments
I’m glad something is actually being done to combat this situation, hopefully this blockade will force North Korea to submit. I must praise the current administration on the ability to bring other country to the table to help share the load, is one of the main reasons I support this action. I also thank the governments of Russia, Britain, and South Korea for stepping up and realizing that this is their problem too. However if this doesn’t work, and North Korea becomes even more defiant, I hope this administration has a plan to deal with them. I plan to meet with the leaders of the allies and of the US to try to hammer out a back up plan. Until then, I’d like to say again, good work.
Regrads,
Senator
