INCOMING TRANSMISSION
COMM ID: Acting-Premier Chun Ki Ling of the Coalition
LOCATION: Office of the Premier '€“ Kremlin Dome, Volgograd, Omega-52

TARGET ID: All Coalition Assets and the Coalition People

People of the Coalition and members of the Fighter Corps,

With this festive season upon us, we all feel a deep sense of loss. I share your pain in the death of Comrade Katz. His views were revolutionary, and he shall always be revered as the Ikon of Ikons. I light a candle with you, and mourn the loss of our great leader.

I am declaring a period of mourning and armistice. From now until the 30th of December, all people of the Coalition are invited to pay tribute and share gifts on the steps of the Kremlin. All Militsiya forces are to give the people the time and respect they all deserve to grieve in their own way. I actively encourage you to engage with the people and feel their sense of loss as we all do feel.

This is a peaceful mourning for the passing of a great leader. Those who incite violence in spite of this season of goodwill - will be publicly struck down by a wrath never before seen. One which I need not order or decree, but one which will rise from the masses to strike at thee.

Now my thoughts turn to the one who has hacked this transmission and seeks to sully our Ikon's name with threats of death, destruction and of splitting our united people.

To you, the one who remains in the shadows daring not to step forward - I say this.

The Coalition people have united, they are not torn or fractured as they once were but bound by grief. This grief will turn to anger. First it will be anger at the perpetrators of the heinous crime that lead to the Premier's vessel exploding. Then anger at the incitement of further violence. Then anger that someone would dare claim to kill their own comrades in the name of Katz. Katz was a great man and a great leader. To chant death to unbelievers and usurpers, when there are none, is an insult. It is you who incite this violence.

This is a time for reflection, a time for calm and peaceful mourning. I will not allow it to be spoiled by the desperate antics of the minority who are discontent with how this administration has handled power.

Under the lead of the recognised War Hero Commandante Rhade, we have struck back against the Corsair expansion. We have aided our allies in their fights against the Bretonian Armed Forces and Rheinland Military and we are a shoulder to lean on for the Zoners and Colonial forces, under threat by the Gallics.

Under my political guidance, our XKR program will be launched next week, and our alliance with the Mollys has deepened.

Now, people of the Coalition, mourn our fallen Ikon as we seek to rebuild in these trying times.

Members of the Fighter Corps, you have my thanks and have the blessing of the people to keep them safe from harm.

For the Coalition, in the true name of Katz!
