Headline: Hanoi to mobilize Expeditionary Force to Newmerican Hawaiian Islands.
By Nguyen Ly Huyen

HANOI - (TST) Premier Chinh Hoang announced today at the Premier Palace that an “Expeditionary Force” code name “Chi Long” after the Sino-Saianese mythical dragon of protection will be formed as part of Operation “Rising Tides.”

Chi Long Expeditionary Group is tasked to retrieve Saianese citizens and IUSN citizens that are currently trapped on the Hawaiian archipelago or were unaccounted for during the initial hasty evacuation that was demanded by the Jones Junta.

The Supreme People’s Presidium passed Military Order 3-2424 unanimously, allowing the Chi Long Expeditionary Group to use any force deemed situationally applicable to defend itself, Saianese citizens, and Saianese assets accordingly, including lethal force.

“The Union of Savashanists Socialist Republics does not recognize the legitimacy of the Nancy Jones administration, and therefore an act of aggression would not constitute a Declaration nor State of War between the Republican Federation of Newmerica and the Union of Savashanist Socialist Republic of Saian. However, any recognized entities already present in the Pacific Theater, notably the Celestial Empire, the United Provinces, and the Republican Federation; an military assault upon Chi Long Expeditionary Group, will result in immediate and swift armed escalation.”
-Chinh Hoang, Premier of the Union of Savashanist Socialist Republic of Saian

Many Saianese have expressed mix opinions regarding the issue, some taking to social media Tweeting their approval to the USSRS involvement into the Newmerican “Civil War” (NFP) to save Saianese nationals, whereas others are dismayed over the regional destabilization of the Pacific Theater which has affected Saianese key energy infrastructure as the USSR imports 1/6 of petroleum and oil products from Newmerica.

Rolling blackouts in the countryside were common through the December and February months, where most energy supplies were redirected to major cities as Sai-Newmerican civilian trade routes were disrupted. The Saianese Aerospace Industry, notably the Saianese branch of the Intercontinental Union of Socialist Nations Space Agency was plagued with project delays as critical aircraft hardware imports were pushed and canceled due to the Newmerican Civil War.

“As the Newmerican state descends further into chaos and is approaching an economic death spiral, Newmerica, once our perceived enemy, has indirectly shown its strategic importance to the daily livelihood of the Saianese people. Therefore there might be more to Operation Rising Tides than just a simple rescue mission.”
-Charn Chai Paowsong, Senior Intelligence Analyst, Mahidol University, Salaya

The USSR’s Chi Long Expeditionary Group is expected to depart from Taiwanese SSR in the coming days.
