Capanetzin, the Huenyan ambassador, stood up and walked to the podium. "Thank you very much, Secretary-General Danton, for this opportunity. This is a subject that is of grave importance to the Huenyan Federation. As you know, the Xiomeran Empire unilaterally and illegally annexed a large portion of Huenyan territory on May 1st of this year. This is just the latest in a series of provocations. The use of mercenary forces in Auria, as a proxy force pursuing Imperial ambitions on the Caxcana mainland, is another such example."
The Huenyan ambassador looked pointedly at the Xiomeran delegation before continuing. "The continued use of both regular military forces, and proxies, by the Xiomeran Empire to pursue their ambitions in general, and their illegal seizure of territory of Huenya in violation of the Jinyu Agreement in particular, are the reasons we have requested this discussion be opened. We firmly believe that Huenya, and Auria, represent just two prongs of a long-term and ongoing Imperial strategy of seeking influence or control over neighboring states or other nations they feel are too weak to challenge them. It is essential that the Empire be reined in before those ambitions can come to pass. Tomorrow, frankly, may be too late. Calhualyana and her lackeys are not used to being told 'no', but that is exactly what must happen. It is our hope that this discussion will be the beginning of concerted action by the members of this body to force the Empire to cease its hostile actions. We are calling for Xiomera to withdraw to the agreed upon borders between our two countries as determined by Jinyu, and to cease its occupation of Huenyan territory. We are also calling for this body to levy comprehensive and significant sanctions against both Xiomera, and against important political figures such as Empress Calhualyana and Prime Minister Toquihu, should the Empire refuse to comply."
Capanetzin sat down, her expression grim.
