FULL STATEMENT FROM HIS EXCELLENCY GENERAL SECRETARY DMITRI VEYROV
The People’s Republic of New Valdoria has received the broadcast presented by Thessara Today with careful attention, and we respond in the same spirit in which it was delivered: publicly, firmly, and without unnecessary hostility.
We note first that New Valdoria is not engaged in a “war of words” with the United States of Thessara. We are engaged in state reconstruction after a revolutionary transition, during a period where financial, legal, and institutional systems are still stabilizing following the collapse of the previous Federation administration.
We therefore reject the framing of this situation as a geopolitical confrontation. It is, in reality, a post-crisis administrative correction process, accompanied by international misunderstanding and rapid media interpretation.

On Financial Allegations and SALN Reporting
The figures cited regarding the Statement of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth (SALN) of former President Lucien Thorne are not disputed as accounting records.
However, we clarify:
These entries originate from Federation-era financial systems under investigation
They are part of an ongoing audit process, not final judicial verdicts
Several values represent aggregated sovereign accounting exposure, not personal liquid wealth
The inclusion of luxury assets, infrastructure delays, and fiscal irregularities reflects a transition economy inheriting fragmented financial records, not a single consolidated personal fortune.
To interpret transitional audit data as proof of a finished criminal conclusion is, respectfully, equivalent to reading a construction site ledger and concluding the building has already collapsed.

On Timeline and Constitutional Sequence
The discrepancy between May 5 and May 6, 2127 is not an attempt at revision, but a reflection of institutional phase transitions:
May 5: Administrative dissolution and parliamentary breakdown phase
May 5–6 midnight: Emergency continuity protocols activated
May 6: Formal establishment of revolutionary constitutional governance
There is no contradiction here—only a difference between political collapse timing and legal institutional activation timing.
Revolutions, by their nature, do not always align neatly with press conference clocks.
—
On Judicial Proceedings and Financial Officials
The individuals cited—Seraphine Valecrest, Elias Montclair, Helena Kravik, and Dorian Valez—are under active financial and administrative review procedures.
We emphasize:
No “pressure-based confessions” are recognized as valid evidence in our constitutional framework
All cooperation statements are subject to judicial verification
The Supreme Tribunal operates under codified socialist legal standards with procedural oversight
New Valdoria does not require dramatization of its legal system. Accountability processes are inherently complex in any post-collapse financial restructuring.
—
On Allegations of “Isolation,” “Blockades,” and “Ring-Fencing”
We acknowledge the economic measures described by UST authorities, including:
We state calmly and clearly:
Such actions do not destabilize New Valdoria. They primarily complicate international financial interoperability, which is unfortunate but manageable.
We remind all partners that economic pressure mechanisms do not substitute for diplomatic engagement. They are tools, not solutions.
—
On Military Speculation and Blutiges Imperium
We take note of speculative reporting regarding potential troop deployments in neighboring regions, including Blutiges Imperium.
The People’s Republic of New Valdoria affirms:
We have not authorized any cross-border military operations
We are not engaged in any unauthorized territorial entry
We support full adherence to international sovereignty law, including border consent protocols
We agree with the implicit concern raised: no state should enter another sovereign territory without authorization unless if they are allies or if they have a treaty.
On this point, we are in full agreement with international law principles.
—
On “War of Words” and Media Framing
We gently clarify:
New Valdoria does not view journalism as warfare, nor diplomacy as conflict entertainment.
We respect Thessara Today as a broadcaster, but we note that some segments of the report combine:
Verified financial data
Interpretive geopolitical language
Speculative strategic conclusions
And narrative tension formatting worthy of serialized fiction
This does not invalidate concern—but it does require careful separation between fact, interpretation, and dramatization.
—
On Peace and Intent
The General Secretary reiterates without ambiguity:
The People’s Republic of New Valdoria:
Does not seek war
Does not seek regional destabilization
Does not pursue military confrontation
Does not encourage escalation with any state
We are focused on:
We are, in plain terms, still recovering. Recovery is not aggression.
—
On Sovereignty and Respect
We respectfully remind all international partners:
Sovereignty is not conditional on approval ratings in foreign media.
Revolutionary legitimacy is not defined by external commentary.
And stability cannot be measured solely through financial shock interpretation models.
—
Closing Statement
General Secretary Dmitri Veyrov concludes:
“We understand concern. We understand scrutiny. But we also understand reality on the ground.
New Valdoria is rebuilding—not expanding chaos.
We ask only for the space that every recovering state requires: time, stability, and respect for its legal process.”
We remain open to dialogue with the United States of Thessara and all international observers.
We prefer coordination over confrontation, clarification over escalation, and cooperation over interpretation spirals.
And finally, with gentle seriousness:
If all international activity is interpreted as preparation for conflict, then diplomacy itself becomes impossible—and that is a conclusion no responsible state should accept.
