~| A Message from the Imperial Sovereignty of Buya |~ In Yuri 36, faced with a new and sometimes host- ile relationship with Nagnang, the kingdoms of Buya and Koguryo entered into an alliance oblig- ging each to present a unified front with regard to Nagnang. Given the political climate of the time, this alliance made sense. Although Buya and Koguryo had their differences, we could be united in this regard. Now many decades have passed, and the relations between Buya and Nagnang have improved and been clarified. There is no longer any reason for my nation to automatically prefer one foreign power over another in international conflicts. Thus, in consultation with the Imperial Ministry, I have chosen to withdraw from and so nullify the Buya-Koguryo Alliance of Yuri 36. Henceforth, Buya shall choose its position in conflicts based on its own national interests and not on the obligations of an outdated treaty. This should not in any way be seen as a sign of hostility or lessened affection for our friends in Koguryo, but rather as an overdue adjustment in Buyan policy. Nor should it be seen as cond- oning the recent actions of Nangen nationalists in Masan or elsewhere. Buya will oppose unjust violence, especially against innocents, even if we have no legal obligation to do so. Buya does not seek conflict with any nation and under my leadership we have sought to avoid it whenever possible. We !will! fight when our own defense or interests demand it, and we will not be walked over or abused without responding, but from now on we will choose our own battles. ~Queen Lasahn~ ~Head of State of Buya~ | |
