WHEREAS Talossa has always been in favour of secessionism everywhere, and WHEREAS , last year's flying-apart of the USSR was greeted with rapturous applause by everyone in Talssan with the possible exception of Jack Schneider, but WHEREAS , certain break-offs have not been recognised by Talossa as independent, sovereign states, THEREFORE the Cosâ resolves: Talossa hereby recognises the republics of Russia (the Russian Federation), Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tadzhikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Belorussia (Belarus), Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia (in addition to the Ukraine and Baltic States which we long ago recognised) to be independent, sovereign states. Furthermore, Talossa encourages the further breakup of th Russian Federation into its component parts if the local inhabitants so wish. Finally, the RT proudly extends the hand of diplomatic recognition to the breakaway Chechen-Inguish Republic in the Caucasus because... "There will always be an Inguish." (Or some corner of a far-off field shall be for ever Inguish, etc.)
