It's all one flower.

2034. Lack of sufficient budget

Congressman Lacques visited the Nemoralis embassy in the summer capital, flogged by the old man during the heat of August.

As soon as the two of them were alone in the reception room, Ambassador Enee cut the point of the greeting.

“Ambassador Smelchi came to the United Nations this morning.”

Do you mind if I ask you how it works?

"Ning, I want you to listen to me." First, we need to buy groceries. ”

Ambassador Smelchi, the representative of the Republic of Namoraris, is accredited to the United Nations Office in the Commonwealth of Barbados.

Following the activation of UN Security Council resolutions and economic sanctions, officials of the office in the Barbados Federation at UN Headquarters were refused the sale of any goods or the provision of services.

First, embassy and employee credit cards and electronic payments were unavailable, and then bank accounts were frozen. Now, they even refuse to enter the store because of face authentication at the store entrance.

The locally recruited staff members also suffered the same distress.

Life has become unbearable, local staff have retired one after another, and now only nemoraris staff work.

Embassies and consulates not only in the Barbados, but also in the countries of Alton Gaza have been blocked by the freezing of bank accounts and the termination of contracts for Internet and telephone lines.

“Electricity and gas are magical, water supply is up and running in wells, but if the line doesn't work, local operations are pretty much up to you.”

Oh my... the telephone line is completely irrelevant to magic and demonic artillery

Senator Rakueus was dumbfounded by the thoroughness of the Barbatum federal government.

“Freezing assets and blocking communications of foreigners is fundamental to economic sanctions.”

But isn't that the way to gather information?

"Yes, the newspaper has also been cut off from the contract." He listens to the radio with the batteries he bought here, and the others are earning money with their feet. ”

"What..."

I fall back on the tearful efforts of the ambassadors to the United Nations in Smelch.

“I try to print and give you internet news about the U.N., the Federation of Barbados, the Kirkles Order, and so on.”

The Ambassador to the Kingdom of Amitostigma, Eany, shakes his head while lying down. We both have a lot of work to do.

What if the stationed Musketeers hunted demon beasts in the refugee camp?

"Yes. Unusually, we have been contacted by the General Command of the Army."

Military Resident Officer Seljant accompanied the Amitostigma government's joint government-academic investigation team to conduct a beast hunt. Ensure the safety of refugees, survey teams, and volunteers.

Materials derived from magic beasts and wild animals are hunted in and around refugee camps where civilians can see them. Things obtained from invisible hunting are packed in [endless bags] and taken home.

Half of the materials we brought back to the embassy were incorporated into the budget here, and half were provided to the General Headquarters.

After all, the budget of the embassy dropped to less than a third before the war.

The painful kitchen situation was revealed and Senator Lacques was speechless.

"The front yard here remains a garden, but the courtyard has been turned into a field. It seems to be something else as well."

The Ambassador laughed, but his eyes were powerless.

With the support of their own citizens who fled to the urban areas of the Amitostigma kingdom through kinship, and with the exchange of food expenses for diplomats stationed in countries with deep ties to the permanent members of the United Nations, they now need more budget than in peacetime.

However, domestic tax revenues have also declined due to war and economic sanctions, and domestic evacuees and bankruptcies have not helped the needy.

Under the control of the Nemus Liberation Army, local authorities began to turn their backs on the Retica interim government of the Kripeus administration, including acquiescing to the refusal to pay national taxes.

"After all, in this year, the central government no longer gives the budget to the provinces. If we don't make up for it somehow, our finances will collapse and we will end up with a tragedy that is unmatched by the present.”

"But without the national budget, the life of the people would be a bitter one."

Senator Lacques sighed.

Economic sanctions have almost blocked the way to acquire foreign currency.

Friendly governments, such as the kingdom of Lacrimalis and the kingdom of Amitostigma, have voiced their opposition to UN Security Council resolutions and economic sanctions by the Twenty Countries Economic Powers Conference, but private companies have not spoken out.

The spread of the Internet and the globalization of economic activity have made it possible to trade with distant countries. On the other hand, if the primary business partner is a foreign company, even if the sanctions are opposed by the local government, if the sanctions are not tailored to the other country, the company in the country where the sanctions are imposed will be cut off from the transaction.

If the deal goes bankrupt, employees and their families will be lost and the domestic economy will deteriorate.

But if private companies follow the sanctions, their relationship with the sanctioned country will deteriorate.

"The temporary government hastened to restore the cities that suffered the most from the air raids on Nenia Island, and hastened to bring back the internally displaced people and resume production activities, but the budget is about to become tight."

It employed a large number of unemployed people in government-run projects and put them on the scene. If the budget runs out, their lives will be in jeopardy.

But then, Sir Seljunto, you're the only one to say it.

The stationed martial artist other than him has been recalled to his native country and is in charge of the Demon Beast Crusade.

Not only the warlords, but also the exterminators who put them into the city during the restoration work collected their hunt and sold them to friendly material stores. It is used to buy groceries, etc.

“It's an embargoed item, but the dealers in that area don't deal with countries in the Kirkuk area.”

Cheng Jing (I see)

There were loopholes in the arms embargo.

Ensuring the safety of local residents and procuring food.

Although it is two birds by one stone, the scale of the transaction is small. Far from replacing all of the arable land lost by the air raid.

“So Ambassador Smelch has asked the UN and the governments of the permanent members to disclose the positive list individually.”

"What did they say?"

Senator Lacques listened earlier.
