Dooku Addresses "Spurious" Republic Reports

KAANTAY, NEIMOIDIA-Count Dooku assured the security of the central headquarter-worlds of the Confederacy of Independent Systems following dubious reports from the Republic media that Jedi-led incursions had conquered essential Separatist commands.

"By reading the spurious reports from Coruscant regarding our withdrawal from such temporary worlds as Raxus Prime and Ord Janon, the Republic would have its citizenry believe we are on the run," said Dooku. "Given the graft rampant in the Senate, it comes as no surprise that their biased media agencies are just as corrupt."

Dooku further boasted about the strength of the Separatist military protecting the commercial headquarters of the constituent trade guilds. "The forces on our borders and outlying colonial assets are admittedly facing greater numbers, but with our inexhaustible supply of troops and materiel from the Neimoidian coffer-worlds, Techno Union home foundries and mighty guild-worlds, it's only a matter of time before the Republic is overwhelmed."

Republic Continues Illegal Aargau Presence

IBC ARCOLOGY, AARGAU-Despite eight months of diplomatic dialogue involving the highest ranks of the InterGalactic Banking Clan, the Republic continues to post military forces within neutral territories of Aargau, disregarding the banking world's neutrality in the war.

Citing protection of Republic citizenry and businesses completing transactions on Aargau, Republic authorities moved several companies of troops into the major centers, even going as far as positioning guards within the immense pyramidal IBC Arcology.

"Aargau law clearly stipulates that noncitizens cannot be armed while on-planet," said Lo Vapeet, Vice-Chair of Communications for the IBC. "These heavily armored soldiers are bristling with deadly weaponry, in direct violation to planetary law and the planet's neutrality."

The unauthorized troops came to Aargau as a result of the disappearance of a Republic inspection team attempting to pin the origins of Hailfire Droids captured on Geonosis to manufacturing plants within the IBC Arcology. To date, no evidence of either the inspection team or the manufacturing plants have been produced, yet the troops remain.

"Aargau has always promised neutrality to our investors despite any political upheavals. The presence of these troops is unsettling and has resulted in notable currency fluctuations in Confederate and uncommitted worlds," said Vapeet.

Once the Aargau Executive Board began exploring secession in protest, the Republic responded with diplomatic envoys including Camaasi representatives.

"We are certain that an equitable compromise can be reached," said Republic Diplomat Gaddatha In'Kro. "The IBC has known Separatist connections. Perhaps if they reduced the number of armed combat droids on the premises, we would not feel the need to be as protective of Republic assets."

"These security droids are the property of Banking Clan executives holding citizenship on Aargau," said Lo Vapeet. "As per the Aargau Charter, citizenry are constitutionally mandated to be armed; this extends to the use of combat automata to those whose liquid assets afford them Premium Citizenship."
