Yes. To @jackelgull 's credit, he did also send orders for Deseret this turn. That's how it's done, folks. True gentleman.

An aberration of nature
The Russians and the Ottomans hereby agree to these points:
- The state of Crimea shall be established, it’s independence shall be guaranteed by the Russians and the Ottomans
- The Ottomans acknowledge the Russian’s interests in the fate of the Slavs and its kinship with the Slavs of the Balkans
- In its rights as the ancient sovereign of the Balkans, and keeping within Russia’s clear and present interests in the Balkans, and in keeping with the rights of the Balkans to rule themselves, the Ottomans agree to meet all these groups in mutual understanding of a new way forward, clear of the pernicious influence of imperialists interested only in undermining the sovereignty and dignity of all nations

Should we assume nonetheless that Russia have rejected the Treaty of Riga?
Or should we freeze all further discussions until Ottoman Empire is stable?

We are not the ones who rejected the Treaty of Riga for the second time.

I guess it NEEDS to be said out loud, but since there is no war, there is no mobilization.

Some Documents
“Nuestra Lucha”
By Hector Quispe, former Foreign Minister
(excerpt from chapter 14 – Conclusion)
“How must we act when our enemies surround us? How can we spread the flame of Andeanismo to the downtrodden of the Americas, yearning to break the yoke of their imperialist slave-drivers? Constant struggle. Eternal struggle, in solidarity! It was clear to me, from my youth, that there is no dignity in the tilling of the soil. That my father’s struggle, and his father’s before him, was only in the drawing of meagre nutrient from soil of little worth for a master on impossibly distant shores. What life is this! Our Andeanismo, our collective brotherhood in dignity and triumph, grants us release. It is the flame which burns between outstretched hands, yearning for warmth and purpose, beckoning to be fed, growing with every sacrifice and redeeming the souls of our fallen brothers. This life-giving flame burns still brighter in the Imperial ascendancy, nurtured by our unwavering spirit. It is Andea.”
Note: Mr. Quispe’s memoir has not been published within the United Communes beyond a single, lackluster sales run in Lima. Sales have been much higher in Madrid, Paris, and New York.

“El Circulo Comunal”
Note to International readers: The books of El Circulo Comunal are not considered precisely canonical by members of the Order of the Circle. They are considered, rather, to be in dialogue with one another, each book published anonymously and by different authors.
(excerpt from Book I – Revolution; compiled 1889)
“And thus were these ‘revolutions’ mere falsehoods of the Bourgeois. Their Circle did not complete, and so were their spirits unsatisfied. Much did they try to fill them, nonetheless. They sought God not in brotherhood, but shards of bone and golden idols. They sought pleasure not in work for their neighbour, but in sumptuous poisons. They sought love not in generous souls but in frilled fabrics and sweet perfumes. They turned not to the humble peasant for guidance, but to the decadent monarch. Yet blamed they cannot be, for the path of the Circle is long and holds temptation on all sides. So far removed were they from their beginnings, from their noble mothers, that adrift they wandered still further from home. Not until Andea were they redeemed, was the Circle completed at long last. And hark! When the Revolution was at long last complete, was it beautiful and its catharsis wide, and the redeemed rejoiced.”
(excerpt from Book IX – Andea Eternal; written 1896)
“As wolves sniffed hungrily about the corpses, it became known that never would they be satiated. Their bloodlust being overwhelming, it was only the corrupted who sought to treat with them for scraps of land. It is the foolish who see the flames kindled on land, and not in the hearts of noble men. It is the land which protects and sustains this flame, yet it is not itself home. The snapping of jowls leaves little to choice; it is our duty to steel ourselves, defend the flame, and not forget our noble truths. The Circle must not be broken. It is Andea which saves, it is Andea which warms and nourishes the souls of men, and it is Andea which must be protected at all costs. For look upon its bounty; its Communal Harmony, its deep and fulfilling brotherhood, its..”

“President Claudia ‘Reina Aeronave’ Gonzalez Elected President in Stunning OCC vote”
The Liman Sun
Observers of the OCC were left flat-footed by the forced resignation of President Marco DeLuna and ascension of Claudia Gonzalez to the Presidency with the backing of a Progessismo-Ciculismo Coalition.
Many in the public had soured on the DeLuna presidency in the past year, viewing his turn to Internacionalismo, his leadership in the humiliating Atlantic War, and the subsequent land-trades and international bargaining as an overreach which put him out of touch with the Andean people. He is, however, Marco DeLuna, the liberator. Anonymous Elitismo delegates, as we have previously reported, believed DeLuna’s recent moderation and sacking of the unpopular foreign secretary, Hector Quispe, would allow him to make a political comeback.
It was the recent delegate recall that spelled DeLuna’s downfall, however. In the urban communes, a finally-rising Progessismo movement held marches and elected delegates demanding more democratic participation, on the theory that a dictatorial DeLuna had led them to war. In rural communes, where members of the Seccionalista bloc had long dominated, many delegates were replaced with Circulismo delegates who forthrightly rejected international conflict in favour closer adherence to the teachings of the Circle.
It was initially predicted that these parties would create an irreconcilable rift in the OCC, but Claudia Gonzalez seems to have been up to the task. The former Speaker had resigned from government after her domestic agenda was rejected by DeLuna in favour of the war effort. She had become known as ‘Reina Aeronave’ during her tenure for her personal championing of the AAA program, and being untainted by the scandal of war, was uniquely positioned to unite the chamber. Her ascension might also be related to her Intra-Andea policy, announced immediately following her election by the OCC, which proposed several measures to compensate veterans, unite the nation, and devolve powers to the local communes.
While many rumours are circulating about the final hours of DeLuna’s presidency and the shock of his political defeat, he has yet to release a statement.

The North German Federation is making a massive push to convince the Austro-Bavarians to join them and accept anschluss.

Heroically Clueless
In fact Ahigin can tell you now if there will be an Austro-Bavaria to play as after the update, since he has finished with European orders.

Austria Bavaria is about to lose half its territory and big chunk of its self autonomy in the next update considering I did about 2-3 quests to carve it up like a pumpkin in an effort to dismantle its imperium.
Also needing a player are Nations like Hungary, the Burmese Empire, and the Maghrebi.

I guess that would be good to know ahead of time. I got the sense that the NGF was so liberal that for AB to accept something like that, the NGF would have to change quite markedly, the AB too.
Of course, violence does overcome legal, moral, and verbal objections.
