Much as I despair against the result of the election there can be no doubt that the election was fair and sadly, the will of the people. It is therefore wrong that that this upstart try and thwart this will. It is apoparent that the non appearnce of the communists at the poll was deliberate, to engineer this victory for the right and give a thin pretext of a reason for this coup. I reject it and will urge all other socialists to reject it. Not just because it is wrong but also because it is doomed to failure.

"Traitorous to what? Freedom? Justice? The People? The Republic? Chile? The only traitor here is you, Juarez. It is people like you who are the bane of the common people. I knew you were trouble right from the start."

Severiano Miramontes
Minister for Defence
It is you who betray the people backing the reactionary bourgeouise! You should be praising me by tearing down the reactionary regime yet you have become a puppet of the capitalist dogs!
 
"It is odd for a man trying to unite the FNT and Communistas to then call the FNT 'reactionary' because they, unlike him, have brains. This is not a reactionary government, Juarez, but arrangements can be made if you want it to be."

When Gogolow gave us these posts, we Communistas, we all made an oath - an oath on top of our oaths of service - to repay his faith in us with loyalty.

I stand for the Third Republic, but I intend to reach Juarez first and take him alive, and keep as many of his men alive as possible. General Renin, together, you and I can take him! I am asking you, President Gogolow, and President-elect Rivera, to not issue a countermanding order; because I don't want to be forced to ask my men to mutiny. But this assignment is not a choice for me, I must do whatever I can to bring my comrade back into the fold, alive, and do the same for as many of his men as possible.

This is something I must do, I only ask that you do not try to stop me.
 
The attempt at taking down a rightfully-elected President disgusts me. I and the Army of Patagonia that I command are For the Republic!

I agree with Miramontes. You have spent a lot of time saying you want to unite us but your actions speak louder than words Juarez. I would not be concerned about your feeble attempt at a coup if i did not know the cost to the men of Chile. You say you are for the worker, the common man but it is those men who will die needlessly.

"I stand by Guerrero's request. Juarez is the only culprit currently, and I have no wish for the troops in his army to die pointlessly. Let them fight for Chile, not for the whims of a deluded madman. I also ask Juarez to clarify who will in charge of the government he hypothesises, and how it will be governed."

The time has come for all Chileans to once again stand for the Republic. The Republic has had many enemies but now we face one of the most sinister forces of tyranny even seen. But I am not worried as those who seek to impose tyranny on the Chilean people will once again be defeated by the Chilean people.

Oh comrade Guerro, I weep for you most of all. For you truly believe that this Third Republic
((Ok please don't ban me for this I just want to state my opinion, I disagree with the no OOC rule maybe banning certain people, I know I am one of the biggest offendor's so maybe it should be me. But it really feels to make the game less fun))
 
I concur with Señors Miramontes and Guerrero. We must avoid needless slaughter at all costs.

I would say that his coup will come close in futility to the failed coups of Zepeda and Severino. Thank god it looks like common sense has broken out and senior figures in the bCommunists are coming forward to defend the Republic. I may have been hasty in casting my aspersions wider than Juarez. If that is the case I apologise.

I wanted to create a worker's republic, run by a central comitte of respected an intelligent friend's of the proletariat, with a wise and skilled leader at it's head. I respected Gogolow and I approached him with the idea but he ouright rejected it. If any other great leader of men steps forward perhaps he can lead it, but for now the burden will rest onmy shoulder's.
 
I will stand for this Republic. I don't agree with Senor Rivera on many issues, but he was elected democratically, just as every other president we've had has been. It now seems that the Left (at least the radical communists) are loathe to surrender their new found power, and that the only party to hold power that has never launched a coup is the Republicanos, both under liberal and conservative leadership (unless you count Cortez, though he became a Nationale, for all intents and purposes.)

I also would like to say one more thing; thank you Senor Gogolow. Though we have rarely found ourselves on the same side, I am glad to see your devotion to the Republic, and hope that sensible (if misguided) leaders like you will continue to play strong roles in Chilean politics (only more capitalistic...).
 
"I disagree. A closer comparison is between this and Araya's coup, not this and Severino's coup."

Severiano Miramontes

Actually I suspect you are correct Senor. We have had so many I forgot about that one.

I wish to thank the Chilean people for putting their faith in me as their President Elect. My cabinet will be announced shortly and my proposed Generals are being reviewed by the new Chief of Staff. As soon as I am sworn in I will stop all land confiscations. I also wish to set up a compensation program for those whose land was seized.

Land Seizure Compensation Act

1. This Act is enacted for the purpose of giving fair compensation to those whose land was seized pursuant to the Land Redistribution Act.

2. Any person or entity whose land was seized shall be entitled to the fair market value of their land at the time of seizure. The Interior Ministry will determine these values.

3. The funds to compensate will be raised from those who received the seized land. A portion of their earnings from the received land will be collected and used to compensate those whose land was seized. These collections will continue until such debt is paid in full. The Interior Ministry will determine the amount to be collected.

4. Those who received the seized land also have the option of leaving the land and having it restored to the previous owner if they do not wish to participate in the repayment program.
While the repayment for the taken lands is a good action, I am wary about how the implementation of the bill might cause further turmoil and slow economic growth. We hardly have ownership of the lands any more (having divided it among the workers as the former bill declared) whose legitimately made and governmentally encouraged plans for usage of the land would be quite disturbed by re-acquiring it or forcing a payment system which reduces their profit from the land. I would like more details on how the Interior department would determine the rates and collection methods in a way so as to not inconvenience the estate economies any more.
Proving that the key in world in "we sometimes don't have a coup following an election" is "sometimes", it seems that Mario Juarez has declared a coup!
Sir, if I may ask - when have we not had a coup following (directly or indirectly) an election? It seems a long time ago.

I stand (along with the Navy and my nice Marines) behind the lawfully elected REPUBLIC. I hope my efforts as departing Chief of Staff and the efforts of all of the Chilean military (save, of course, the general whom I was reluctant to appoint for this very reason) will keep this time of mutiny as bloodless as possible.

You knew this banner was going to show up somehow.
 
"It is a sad day. Comrade Juarez has been a comrade of mine for a long time. But, now is not the time for revolution. It is not the peoples will, and I shall not force it upon them. Therefore I declare FOR THE REPUBLIC."

-Comrade Armando Renin
 
I am very encouraged to see the FNT and the honourable members of the communistas stand up for the Republic against Juarez. The people of Chile are united against his attempt to seize power.
