READ ALL ABOUT IT, EUROPEAN TIMES ISSUE ONE ON SALE NOW, READ ALL ABOUT IT!!!!!!



Attached to this Communiqué is a complementary copy of The European Times. For Frontline leaders a wire of the major stories is included below:

TENSIONS RISE AS ARMIES MOBILIZE
EUROPEAN Leaders were today embroiled in bitter exchanges of words as tensions rose over various territory claims made by seven of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comSurprisedffice:smarttags" />Europe’s largest countries. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comSurprisedfficeSurprisedffice" />
ET understands that Austria, Russia and Turkey have all made claims and counter claims in regards to ownership of the Balkans whilst France, Germany and England are all attempting to take political control of Holland and Belgium.
The Spanish leadership has been notably quite following their recent military troubles abroad.
ET, as ever, will be there to bring you all the developments as they happen.


Reports of spying add
pressure to diplomatic situation
REPORTS have been received of French spies making contact with socialist agitators in London to encourage their activism against the Conservative government. Sources from within the English Ministry of War suggest that junior diplomats from the French embassy in London have been seen attending meetings of known revolutionaries and socialists in London's coffee shops and bars. Experts suggest that this is a new phase in France's recent provocative attempts to extend French interests beyond the continent, and comes only months after the rumoured extensive military exercises by the French fleet in the English Channel, and increased patrols by the army of the Third Republic in the Burgundy and Picardy areas. Speculation suggests that an uprising by socialists in London and within the English armed forces could be imminent.
Intelligence officials were unavailable for comment, but the English Foreign Minister made a statement in the House of Commons "Rumours of an increase in diplomatic tensions between England and their friends Germany and France are simply scurrilous nonsense circulated by revolutionaries in an attempt to destabilize the long standing treaties in place". An official statement is awaited from the French Prime Minister, whilst Germany’s response to increased army patrols seems to have been to make public statements supporting the ethnic Germans living in Burgundy, who have recently had land seized from them by local French farmers.

Italy fears Tunis
FEARS are growing that Italy may be drawn into a war in North Africa after it emerged last night that Tunisian leaders are mobilizing troops for an assault on Europe. The Tunisian Embassy in Rome was unavailable for comment.

United Kingdom?
NEWS coming out of the UK suggests that England may have to forget military support from Wales after last years Rugby Home Nations Competition victory revived Welsh calls for independence. A Welsh-born MP stated that if Wales could beat England at rugby then defeating them in matters of the economy and world affairs was next on the agenda. Meanwhile independent polls in Wales show nearly 90% of Welsh citizens back a split from the UK.
Scottish politicians in Westminster moved quickly to affirm their support for the British Parliament.

Military superiority gives army the edge.
THOSE of you who are regular European Times readers may be aware of the growing tensions between the seven ‘European Superpowers’ but any military buff will tell you that the army to fear is in fact neutral Switzerland. The Swiss army have access to such phenomenal weapons as The Swiss Army Knife as well as pin point accurate timing devises. It remains to be seen if any of the seven great power of Europe will attempt to lure Switzerland out of it’s neutrality to utilise this war-winning technology.

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
