[Live from the Chimerican Defence Ministry, Poyais]

With the region-wide crisis over Sheepstan nuclear exports and the legality of it's military junta continuing, the Chimerican Corporate Council today announced the beginning of a new emergency buildup by the military, involving equipment modernisation among many sectors, the expansion of the regular army, and the formation of new irregular groups to carry out guerilla warfare and covert operations against enemies. Defence Ministry spokesmen have also stated that the ground part of the Chimerican ABM system was to be expanded and tightened to help protect against nuclear attack. This is to be funded by a large increase in the Chimerican military budget, which recently hit a new high with the adoption of this year's national budget.

However, when asked to comment upon this, a harassed-looking government Press Officer flatly refused to make any statements whatsoever.
