So it was a long winter, but spring has finally arrived! And with it come some interesting developments. Our new French president has a bit of a tough time as all of his moves bounce, the Spanish take the rock, and the Atlantic is flooded with British fleets. Also, almost all of the remaining neutrals are now occupied, the lone exception being Tunis.
We have some very colorful press this year, including one that some of you might find hard to read in its current form!
There are no retreats, but Summer 1995 will still occur for press purposes. Monday is a holiday for some people here in the US, so the deadline for those press releases will be this coming Tuesday, July 6, at 9 pm eastern.

Press #1:
Spain to England: Moves from France will decide where your
fleets should go. I would like to see them in the Atlantic I
think, since Italy and Egypt are such nice guys.
Spain to Italy: Tunisia is yours. Let me know when and how I can help
you further.

/Messieurs, je vous remercie de votre accueil chaleureux. Je le fais, toutefois, la demande que toute la correspondance se déroulent en français, la langue unique pour la diplomatie./
/Je présente mes excuses pour le pas-français comportement de mon prédécesseur. Il a était lâche, et lui je tué dans un duel./
/S'il vous plaît nous donner le temps de reprendre notre pied. Il serait antisportif d'attaquer un pays dans un tel état de faiblesse, ne c'est pas? Nous n'essaierons pas de prendre plus de terre cette année; nous contenter de protéger ce qui est le nôtre./
/En ce qui concerne les mouvements apparemment agressive nous avons pris: nous ne savons pas vos cœurs ou vos motivations, et nous devons agir pour nous-memes protéger. En vérité, nous ne cherchons temps pour construire nos armées ou des flottes. Votre grandeur d'âme ou menace, en cette année 1995, sera de déterminer où les unites sont situés. /
/L'Allemagne, si vous avez agi de bonne foi, attendre notre appui dans la prise en Autriche (en vérité, il a toujours été l'allemand dans la nature si ce n'est dans le nom). L'Italie, si vous avez agi de bonne foi, vous devriez vous attendre aucune agression de notre part. Angleterre, si vous avez agi de bonne foi, attendre notre retrait de la mer d'Irlande. Dans chaque cas (mer d'Irlande, Piémont, Alsace), notre objectif a été de prévenir votre agression, non pas pour l'obtenir. Nous vous remercions de votre aimable compréhension./
/Vive la France!

Germany to Poland: I am supporting your fleet to Sweden. I guess this would be good enough for me to borrow CZE from you? Germany reiterate peace with Poland.
Germany to England: I respect your ownership of Belgium and North Sea. I hope you can respect my Denmark and Holland. Please move away your fleet at Belgium so as to free our troops.
Germany to France: I am sorry. I have not heard any confirmation from you in this winter and you waive your builds. It just look like you are giving up this game.
Germany to Italy: Ok we are on roll to France.

ITALIAN PRESS - Spring 1995
Mario and Luigi send out song dedications to their friends:
To Germany: Fleets to the left of me, Armies to the right, here I am, stuck in the middle with you. Help you to Suisse?
To Ukraine: Turkey in the Straw. Help you to Rumania?
To Spain: Sea of Love? If we fight, we get hit from our respective behinds.
To Egypt: Um... I don't know. Just be smart and go north and east, please.
Press #6:
Poland to Germany:
Thank you for supporting KRA. Hopefully I do not need it.
I did not hear a consensus on AUS. May I suggest a peaceful solution to head off conflict with Mario - those that do not turn in builds obviously do not want their SCs.
