I am deeply shocked to hear of the death of the President of Khastenia Sidorov Kolibin.
I send my personal, heartfelt condolences on behalf of me and my nation to yours. We stand in unending solidarity with you against these cowards.
These cowards seek to undermine democracy, liberty and cordiality in the free world through acts of unspeakable fearstoking. I implore you, do not bow.
Terror shall not divide or belittle us, nor drive us into fear, but it will embolden us all. The torch of liberty will burn brighter in the darkness that surrounds us at this trying time.
Freedom and peace will prevail over fear and violence, always.

Replying to @CanslerSutherland
This must be the most unprecedented day most Sutherlanders can remember. Slow news days for weeks, and now SBS is having to alternate between live coverage of the government breaking down, and resigning en masse, and live coverage of the aftermath of the terror attack in Khastenia.
Many international observers might not realise it, but Sutherland does not have a working government at the moment, and its Chancellor no majority in the Almoot as of this evening. The Labour party has, as of one hour ago, already filed a no hope vote in the Almoot which will be voted upon on Monday (!!). And yet, the SSB - Sutherland's highest security council - has convened as of the late hours of this morning, and it is known that the Leader of the Againsthood Blake Sagan has attended, in what is being increasingly referred to as an impromptu "government of national unity and necessity," at least for the coming hours and days. This really has never happened before, nor would it have been necessary twenty-four hours ago.
And yet - this may be one of the most significant moments in his tenure, with the assassination of the Khastenian president throwing out any pretense that any corner of the world is resolutely safe from terror, and that the highest rungs of power are safe from these acts. We are in thoroughly uncharted territory on the role of an outgoing(?) government and on how parties behave under such unusual circumstances. We can only hope that they act with the civility, unity, and reason that this situation demands, but also in a way inkeeping with Sutherlander law and democratic principles.

Sutherland stands with Khastenia, through all. Whatever we can do as a nation to help you, we will do.

I join the President and Chancellor in condemning the unspeakable act of terror committed against the Khastenian state, and send my sincere condolences to the Khastenian people and government for the loss of your President today.
I will work with my friend Allister Ramsay to deliver us through these tough times in a stable, united and secure manner. National security is our paramount priority as a nation during these times, at a time when it is increasingly clear that free democracies across Eras are facing an unparalleled threat of unilateral, unprovoked terror.
It is of the utmost importance that we stay our misgivings for the common purpose of national security. For that reason, I and my Shadow Redery are in active co-operation with the government and security services to maintain our nation's bulwark security, and I remain grateful to my friends across the floor who have been open and welcoming to the current number #1 priority - working around the clock to keep Sutherland safe, and stand up to terror, home and abroad.
Slava Khastenii.
