- [Breaking News] Mayor Crois Declares Asset Freeze
- ◆Urgent Press Conference◆
Today, Mayor Crois held an emergency press conference at Orchis Tower to announce a freeze on all foreign assets held by the IBC. The freeze will remain in place until Crossbell's independence is acknowledged internationally.
This sudden declaration seems to indicate that the mayor, who also happens to be the IBC's CEO, is willing to exert his influence on foreign economies despite lacking the domestic authority to do so. Due to the hasty nature of the conference, further details remain unknown.
Before the seizure of funds, the IBC managed the majority of the continent's financial assets. The sudden freeze of said assets has caused markets across Zemuria to plummet in response to the announcement. There are also reports of mass hysteria in the Republican stock exchange. We reached out to experts for comment on how the international economy will be impacted. 'For now, the future is uncertain,' said one economist. A diplomat explained, 'we want to be absolutely sure of the extent of the freeze before taking further action.'

According to a new report, both Erebonia and Calvard have held press conferences on the recent financial crisis. 'The government demands that Crossbell State and the IBC revoke the asset freeze immediately. Failure to do so will be met with force,' stated a press official from the Republican government. Our sources claim that the Imperial government has already begun mobilizing its army. It's possible these press conferences are meant to serve as an ultimatum.
We will follow up on this story as we receive official communications.
