The Reborn Khanate asks the Ottomans to consider the history of the Belgians. Nearly third of their territory is that which has been carved out from the Banner of the West, attacked without provocation or legitimate cause. They seek to prevent the Khanate, a fellow monarchy, who understands the necessities of tradition, from pursuing justice for the horrendous betrayal inflicted upon them by the Karelian people. They claim to be peace-loving, yet engage in military exercises within foreign borders, and continue to build military infrastructure, having assaulted the independent lands of Norway and Iceland, conquering the latter, and neglecting even so much as to provide the same commercial infrastructure with which they have furnished their homeland. Their only possible purpose in preventing an alliance between the peoples of the Ottoman Empire and the Reborn Khanate would be to allow themselves to strike at Khanate lands without risk of reprisal, placing the homes of Ottoman people at risk by making their borders a warzone. Moreover, should the Belgians manage to take the lands of the Khanate, such is their ambition for domination that they would quickly turn on the Ottomans, who would be surrounded on both sides by enemies with technologies more advanced, armies more numerous, and lands more developed.
The only possible end of this continued Belgian domination, politically and militarily, is in tears for all parties. The Reborn Khanate seeks only to make an example of the Karelians, treacherous fiends who used the unrest and rebellion within the Caucassus mountains to betray their former friend, opportunists at their worst. Can the Ottomans really stand to see such injustice go idly by?
