De Almagro Interpreter Incident

The de Almagro Interpreter Incident was a controversial event that occurred during a Premier's Dawn Briefing on 2.II.1709 AN. During his address on the Recession of 1709, Premier Felipe de Almagro became visibly irritated with the sign language interpreter positioned beside him, ultimately pushing the interpreter physically out of the camera frame while declaring, "The dignity of the Federation is incompatible with your spasmodic hand gestures. Be gone."

The incident, broadcast live to millions, sparked immediate backlash from disability rights organizations and public figures, including a formal condemnation from the National Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing.
