Bourzafrique, Tarmorya - English Edition

Her Majesty kidnapped by terrorists

November, 2012

Just before midnight of last Friday, November 16, queen Monique I and the heir prince Yesib were taken away from the Royal Palace (Qajr l'Imoryen) by a group of terrorists and their destination is unknown. In fact, a group wearing uniforms of the Royal Tarmoryan Army arrived to l'Qajr in a military vehicle. The leader of the group presented a letter to lieut. colonel Karim Mariz, aide of her Majesty, inviting the royal family to a meeting in l'Emghar's Cabinet. Queen Monique, prince Yesib and the colonel - the prince consort Jean Paul d'Abbadie was in France - left the Palace in the vehicle accompanied by the group a few minutes after midnight. They arrived to a field in the suburb of Bourzafrique where an helicopter was waiting for them. It departed immediately and vanished in the darkness. The vehicle was left behind.

General Aghruz classified the operation as "an act of high treason against the people of Tarmorya" done by a group of deserters from the Armed Forces. L'Emghar demanded the "immediate and unconditional liberation of the royal members" and said that "the government will have no mercy with those terrorists". The government are entirely engaged in the hunt of the terrorists and the rescue of the royal members.

L'Emghar rejects foreign interference in national affairs

October, 2012

General Aghruz condemned yesterday what he called "an unacceptable interference from foreign governments in Tarmoryan internal affairs." His criticism was mainly against the government of Voskia which hinted that Tarmorya is violating human rights and democracy “based on information provided by an unauthorized and tendentious source”, referring to our former prime minister, Ms. Charlotte Muznigor. The general said that "our country is not violating any law and the revolutionary government is necessary considering the volatile situation of the country that could lead to a civil war. And this situation will remain for as long as necessary. "

The criticisms were even stronger against the Kaupelanese government due to the embargo of a military vessel, the RTN Eghlid Tarqis, manufactured in Kaupelan for the Tarmoryan Navy and ready to be sent out. The ship, the last of a purchase of two totalling around 250 million denari, was almost entirely paid in advance. The Kaupelanese ambassador, Mr. Agus Kawisitra, announced that his government decided to suspend the sending of the ship until the political situation in Tarmorya returns to normality. The response of Tarmorya to this decision is still unknown.

The general, however, praised FICT Secretary General, Mr. Anatoĺ Bugănskie, which gave a confidence vow to Tarmoryan government, stating that time should be given to Tarmorya to solve its problems.


Muznigor negotiates a front against Tarmorya

October, 2012

According to the international press, the former première Charlotte Muznigor announced a visit to some European countries, including Voskia, a member of FICT, to create a front against the current Tarmoryan government. Ms. Muznigor, which ran to France when her government was incapable to deal with a crisis in the first quarter of this year, now claims for what she calls “lack of democracy and liberty”. This information provoked an immediate reaction in the government. ‘We do not believe that this senseless initiative can succeed, especially considering our allied from FICT. Anyway, we will not tolerate any interference from abroad in our internal affairs', said l'Emghar.


L'Emghar approves the new FICT Treaty

October, 2012

On October 12, the Chief-Minister (“Emghar l'Uziren”) Daqem Aghruz signed the approval for the Treaty of Ísðor, after consulting the Queen and the Senate. Now Tarmorya is the sixth nation to ratify the Treaty that entered into force in September. Mr. Yassine Burzkabram was assigned as the new ambassador to organisation, replacing the former ambassador, Mr. Charles Albert Filantuniz. ‘This act demonstrates the good will of the Tarmoryan government with FICT and its members’, said the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Omar Mahzem Temezirt, during his speech to the TV. Mr. Temezirt exhorted the FICT members to help and support Tarmorya in this “critical moment of its history”.

General Aghruz heads the government junta

May, 2012

Alleging that the country's political situation was out of control, a military junta led by General Daqem Aghruz took power, deposing the interim Prime Minister Mehdi Wiqmaghin. The Senate was closed by the new government. Former Prime Minister Charlotte Muznigor, who had denounced the imminence of a coup d’état, was placed under house arrest. The queen Monique Christine I has not yet manifested, but it is feared for her future. There are reports of arrest of political activists and supporters of the deposed government. There is fear in the aristocracy, particularly among the French-Tarmoryans and the Catholics, pejoratively dubbed as Tizyen Ishmladen (the white ducks), with the growing wave of violence by radical Tarmoryans.

Attacks in the capital culminated with the resignation of Muznigor

March, 2012

After new terrorist attacks, including the violent explosion in the Central Bus Station of Bourzafrique that killed fourteen people, the prime minister resigned. The president of the Parliament, the senator of the Party of the Nation (HT) Mehdi Wiqmaghin, temporarily assumed the post. There is a great uncertainty about the policy of the new government, whether it will be continuity in the liberalisation process started with Prime Minister Charlotte Muznigor and her Party of Tarmoryan Union (HET) or if the nation will undergo a conservative retreat due to the pressure of religious and radical groups.

Violent protests took over the streets in the periphery of Bourzafrique

February, 2012

The violence that occurred last night, Feb. 21, left cars and buses torched, vandalized shops and a balance of five dead, more than forty wounded and about fifty people detained by police. The protests began the night before, after the police violently suppress a demonstration, mainly of immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa, against the government, demanding unemployment wage to combat hunger and misery. A 23 year old Nigerian was killed, allegedly by the police, which sparked the protests.

In the city of Ghamal, there were also demonstrations, but of Muslims against "the liberalization of customs" and "violations of Islamic laws." A Catholic church was attacked, but no injuries were registered. It is feared that this movement spreads across the country and can affect the recent liberalization measures adopted by the government to attract foreign tourists.

It is feared as well, that this movement, led by conservative Muslims can be fused to the manifestations of poor immigrants in the capital, creating a national movement of incalculable proportions.
