Manifesto

A naval-led campaign to defeat the Confederacy of the Dispossessed throughout the Sea of Storms. The Dispossessed wage their war against the Federation and the civilised world with a fleet that is as obsolete as it is prodigious. The Federal Navy will need to expand over the next decade to meet the challenges of the corsair fleets that have arisen following the collapse of the Bassarid empire outside of Corum.
A continuation of the campaign to eliminate (not capture) the leadership cadres of the Dispossessed. For the shameful slaying of His Majesty, Manco Cápac, there can be no justice except in retribution and reprisal.
A programme of corvette building, with orders to be placed with ESB Armada and the Pontecorvo Firm.
A mobilisation of the Federal Guards Service to support pacification efforts in New Caputia. Operation Purple Splendor yielded a battlefield victory, but now the hard grind of eradicating Bassarid tendencies amongst the liberated population must be undertaken.
Acquisition of maritime patrol aircraft, utility helicopters, unmanned aerial surveillance vehicles for the Federal Forces, and the generation of an air tanker fleet capable of ensuring the extended range strike capability of the Federal Air Force.

The Mehrshahr Agreement, providing access to four military bases in the Suren Confederacy, will form the bedrock of Nouvelle Alexandrie's contribution to the defence and security of its fellow Raspur Pact and Euran Economic Union member-state,.as well as its commitment to the collective security of the Euran realms in the face of the ceaseless aggression of the Dispossessed. This mission is focused on generating an Area Defence (artillery, air-defence, surveillance, UAVs etc) capability for the Surenid Armed Forces and will not entail direct combat actions. The contribution of Nouvelle Alexandrie to the ongoing Norasht campaign remains one of training and advice, albeit with an expanded logistical component, which will expand yet further as the FHP policies concerning rearmament reach fruition.

Continuing the policy of successive governments, the FHP focus is on providing the regions with the tools they need to fulfill their needs. With the Federation spread across three continents, and with many regions the size of powerful, diverse, and regionally expansive empires in their own right, it would unreasonable to prescribe utopian top down solutions for local problems, such as the perennial issue concerning housing construction. With the creation of a powerful housing ministry, and with the support of the Ministry of the Interior, the Federal Government is positioned to provide every support to the regional authorities, but it is the regions that must deliver. It is not for the Federal Government to appropriate land, mandate social housing, or punish developers for allowing perverse incentives to develop. There comes a point where, if the tiers of governance are to have meaning, the localities must resolve these matters for themselves.

Celebrating the success of New Alexandrian led allied campaign in clearing the Bassarid-aligned Confederacy of the Dispossessed from Passas/New Caputia.
