Sovereign Confederation: Statement on the United Defenders League Security Breach

Sovereign Confederation strongly condemns the breach of trust committed by Ravania when he transmitted classified military information from The North Pacific to the United Defenders League. Such actions are unbecoming of any defender, let alone a senior officer, and we applaud the difficult efforts taken by Eluvatar to right the wrong perpetrated against his home region.

We find the initial response taken by the UDL to be utterly dismissive of the seriousness of what occurred. Although it was rescinded, it is nevertheless shocking that the first reaction of the leadership was to strip Eluvatar of his position within UDL and to praise Ravania's espionage. Moreover, the later punishments that have been handed down across the board make no indication that UDL leadership even understands the complaints raised. A temporary demotion that can and will be overcome without any real effort to prevent this sort of event from happening in the future, and one without any effect on the actual day-to-day operations of the UDL, is scarcely worth calling a punishment at all. We encourage the UDL to reconsider its mental evaluation of the crime that occurred and show that they value the sovereignty and integrity of their friends by treating this espionage as the crime that it was.

We offer our support and well-wishes to TNP, and hope that the judicial process ensures that justice is brought to bear on those responsible for this act. We will provide any assistance we can in this difficult time.

Thank you for your time,

Quadrimmina, on behalf of the Executive Council of the Sovereign Confederation
Astarial, Secretary General of the Sovereign Confederation

It has come to the attention of Sovereign Confederation that the United Defenders League has, contrary to our understanding of the situation at the time, permanently reprimanded Ravania for his actions in this incident. With this in mind, SovCon applauds the UDL for their appropriate response to this situation and apologizes for our rush to judgment. While we may disagree with the way this case has been handled since it was brought to the attention of the international community, the UDL has made the right call in the end, and that deserves recognition and applause.

We look forward to learning the lessons of this mistake, and ensuring that in the future, we can all do better to protect the sovereignty of regions everywhere.

Signed,
Quadrimmina, on behalf of the Executive Council

Can I ask that one of the Administrators move this to the SovCon embassy, now that it is open?

Please and thanks.
