Government of Coral Island designated a hostile foreign government

Office of the Governor of San Andreas. State Capitol. Statement on the designation of the Government of Coral Island as a hostile foreign government.

Four weeks ago this city was on its knees. Buildings were coming down, people were trapped, the streets were not safe, and the people of Los Santos looked up and saw aircraft falling out of the sky.

We were told at the time that no aircraft had been lost. That was not true. The statement was issued by the previous administration, and I take responsibility for correcting it today.

Since I took office I have asked for every decision made in the name of this State after 25 September to be reviewed, and I asked the State Police, the San Andreas Air National Guard and our federal partners to establish what happened to the aircraft that came down over Los Santos. They have now reported to me, and I have read every page.

The evidence shows that the aircraft that came down in Mission Row on the evening of Friday 25 September, and a second aircraft brought down the following day, were struck by forces acting for the Government of Coral Island. It shows that Coral Island's government had prepared and costed a contract to rebuild this city before the first conversation about that contract ever took place. And it shows that it went on to negotiate with this State, at a table I sat at, as a friend.

A government that strikes aircraft out of the sky over a city in crisis, and then offers to rebuild that city at a price, is not a partner. It is a hostile power, and from today the State of San Andreas will treat it as one.

I have not taken this decision alone. The President of the United States has reviewed the same evidence, and this morning countersigned the State's findings and issued a determination that the Government of Coral Island is a hostile foreign government. The federal government will act alongside us.

I want to be very clear about one thing. The people of Coral Island are not our enemy. Coral Islanders living, working or staying in San Andreas are welcome here, and they will be treated with the same fairness and respect as anybody else. This is about a government, and about the people who gave the orders.

To the families of the crews we lost: you were owed the truth a month ago. I am sorry it has taken this long. Those responsible will answer for what they did.
