I\u2019m Alan Nuevo and welcome to the Empire Report. Our top story, a recent report from the non-profit Saviors of Sentient Space Species claims that if Human intervention on Genesis II does not occur soon then one of the warring species may completely eradicate the other. While the Senate appears concerned, sources indicate that a fear of revising the Fair Chance Act\u2019s non-interventionist policy to address this issue might unintentionally set a precedent that could be used to undermine the act. For now, there appears to be nothing Humanity is willing to do to stop Genesis II\u2019s interspecies war. Beck \u2026\n\nBeck Russum: Thanks, Alan. A surprise announcement from Jalan today, as the Suj Kossi campaign temporarily suspended the Tevarin candidate\u2019s historic senatorial run. It seems Mr. Kossi will be taking a week off from politicking to report for duty with the Naval Reserves. The announcement comes on the heels of the latest polls, which showed Gabrielle Graci\u00e1n pulling ahead of Mr. Kossi for the first time.\n\nAccording to an official press release from the campaign, Mr. Kossi, a UEE veteran and Medal of Valor recipient, has been an active Naval Reservist ever since his discharge in 2928, and will be spending the week on MacArthur instructing pilots on how to repair deep space sensors, like the ones monitoring the jump point into Elysium from the Vanduul-controlled Vanguard System. Even though some critics applaud Mr. Kossi\u2019s actions, they still dispute his intentions, claiming the move is more political than patriotic.\n\nHere to discuss this unexpected development with us is Nori Ryak, a consultant for the Kossi campaign. Let me start by asking the obvious question, why now?\n\nNori Ryak: Being a member of the UEE Navy was a hugely influential part of Mr. Kossi\u2019s life. After leaving the service, he wanted to stay connected to the institution that, he truly believes, set him on the path he\u2019s on today. One of the ways for him to do that was to become a Reservist and dedicate a few weeks each year to the Navy. This simply is a continuation of what he\u2019s been doing since he resigned active duty.\n\nBeck Russum: With Graci\u00e1n\u2019s surge in the polls, this seems like an ill-advised time to break from his campaign. Can\u2019t Reservists postpone their service?\n\nNori Ryak: Well, Beck, while that is an option, Mr. Kossi thought it was important to serve at this critical time. Ever since the attack on Vega II, the UEE has prioritized security in any system bordering Vanduul territory. Among the many failings that led to the horrific attack in Vega were malfunctioning deep space sensors. If those sensors had been working properly, then the people would have been given more advanced warning, and who knows how many lives could\u2019ve been saved?\n\nRecently, the Senate approved a spending measure to ensure all sensors protecting the UEE from the Vanduul were working properly. This massive undertaking requires the Navy to confirm that each and every sensor is operating correctly and to repair or replace those that are not. To do that, the Navy needs to train more of its pilots to perform these missions.\n\nThese repair missions, often considered to be among the most dangerous in the Navy, are exactly what Mr. Kossi did for years when he was a pilot. In fact, he received his Medal of Valor for helping repel a Vanduul attack during one of these repair missions. At this time Mr. Kossi believes his skill-set is better served safeguarding the Empire than on the campaign trail.\n\nBeck Russum: Eli Vaughn from the Gemma Observer wrote an editorial today suggesting this is nothing more than a publicity stunt to bolster Mr. Kossi\u2019s sagging poll numbers. How do you respond to that?\n\nNori Ryak: Generally I don\u2019t respond since Eli hasn\u2019t been the most open-minded to Mr. Kossi as a candidate. But seriously, as a Reservist, Mr. Kossi has reported for service every year since leaving active duty. This is no different than what he\u2019s done previously. Mr. Kossi is simply honoring his commitment to the Navy.\n\nBeck Russum: Are we really expected to believe that there is no political motivation here?\n\nNori Ryak: Listen, I know we\u2019re in the midst of a campaign, but not everything in Mr. Kossi\u2019s life should be viewed through a political lens. As much as I try to convince critics otherwise, not every decision he\u2019s made or action he\u2019s performed was done with his political future in mind. It\u2019s important to remember that Mr. Kossi is more than just a candidate for Jalan\u2019s seat in the Senate. While he is a father, husband, community activist, military veteran, Medal of Valor recipient, and so much more, all of it is in service of one simple thing:\n\nHe wants to make the UEE a better place.\n\nPeriod.\n\nToday he\u2019s planning to serve his Empire through this voluntary military service. Come May 3rd he hopes to do it as Jalan\u2019s newest elected Senator.\n\nBeck Russum: Thank you for your time today, Mr. Ryak. Coming up, Colt Legrande takes us inside the locker room after Terra\u2019s stunning final-second loss to Davien last night. That and the rest of the Sataball scores when we return.\n\n< Transmission Break >","de_DE":"\u00dcbertragung beginnt >\nAlan Nuevo: Guten Abend. Ich bin Alan Nuevo und willkommen zum Empire Report. Unsere Top-Story, ein aktueller Bericht der gemeinn\u00fctzigen Saviors of Sentient Space Species, besagt, dass, wenn der menschliche Eingriff in Genesis II nicht bald erfolgt, eine der kriegf\u00fchrenden Arten die andere vollst\u00e4ndig ausrotten kann. W\u00e4hrend der Senat besorgt zu sein scheint, deuten Quellen darauf hin, dass die Angst vor einer \u00dcberarbeitung der nicht-interventionistischen Politik des Fair Chance Act zur Behandlung dieses Themas unbeabsichtigt einen Pr\u00e4zedenzfall schaffen k\u00f6nnte, der dazu dienen k\u00f6nnte, das Gesetz zu untergraben. Im Moment scheint es nichts zu geben, was die Menschheit bereit ist zu tun, um den Krieg der Zwischenarten von Genesis II. zu stoppen. Beck.....\n\nBeck Russum: Danke, Alan. Eine \u00fcberraschende Ank\u00fcndigung von Jalan heute, als die Suj Kossi-Kampagne den historischen Senatsverlauf des Tevarin-Kandidaten vor\u00fcbergehend aussetzte. Es scheint, dass Herr Kossi sich eine Woche frei nehmen wird, um sich bei den Marine-Reservaten zum Dienst zu melden. Die Ank\u00fcndigung folgt den j\u00fcngsten Umfragen, bei denen Gabrielle Graci\u00e1n zum ersten Mal vor Herrn Kossi zog.\n\nLaut einer offiziellen Pressemitteilung der Kampagne ist Herr Kossi, ein UEE-Veteran und Medal of Valor Empf\u00e4nger, seit seiner Entlassung im Jahr 2928 ein aktiver Marine-Reservist und wird die Woche auf MacArthur verbringen, um Piloten zu unterrichten, wie man Weltraumsensoren repariert, wie diejenigen, die den Sprungpunkt nach Elysium vom Vanduul-kontrollierten Vanguard-System aus \u00fcberwachen. Auch wenn einige Kritiker die Handlungen von Herrn Kossi begr\u00fc\u00dfen, bestreiten sie immer noch seine Absichten und behaupten, dass der Zug eher politisch als patriotisch sei.\n\nUm diese unerwartete Entwicklung mit uns zu besprechen, ist Nori Ryak, ein Berater f\u00fcr die Kossi-Kampagne, hier. Lassen Sie mich zun\u00e4chst die offensichtliche Frage stellen: Warum jetzt?\n\nNori Ryak: Ein Mitglied der UEE Navy zu sein, war ein sehr einflussreicher Teil von Herrn Kossi's Leben. Nachdem er den Dienst verlassen hatte, wollte er mit der Institution in Verbindung bleiben, die ihn, so glaubt er wirklich, auf den Weg gebracht hat, auf dem er heute ist. Eine der M\u00f6glichkeiten f\u00fcr ihn, das zu tun, war, Reservist zu werden und jedes Jahr ein paar Wochen der Marine zu widmen. Dies ist einfach eine Fortsetzung dessen, was er seit seinem Ausscheiden aus dem aktiven Dienst getan hat.\n\nBeck Russum: Mit Graci\u00e1ns Anstieg in den Umfragen scheint dies wie ein unvorsichtiger Zeitpunkt, um von seiner Kampagne abzur\u00fccken. K\u00f6nnen Reservisten ihren Service nicht verschieben?\n\nNori Ryak: Nun, Beck, obwohl das eine Option ist, hielt es Herr Kossi f\u00fcr wichtig, in dieser kritischen Zeit zu dienen. Seit dem Angriff auf Vega II hat die UEE die Sicherheit in jedem System an der Grenze zu Vanduul Priorit\u00e4t einger\u00e4umt. Unter den vielen Fehlern, die zu dem schrecklichen Angriff in Vega f\u00fchrten, waren Fehlfunktionen der Weltraumsensoren. Wenn diese Sensoren ordnungsgem\u00e4\u00df funktioniert h\u00e4tten, dann h\u00e4tten die Menschen mehr Vorwarnung erhalten, und wer wei\u00df, wie viele Leben h\u00e4tten gerettet werden k\u00f6nnen?\n\nVor kurzem genehmigte der Senat eine Ausgabenma\u00dfnahme, um sicherzustellen, dass alle Sensoren, die die UEE vor der Vanduul sch\u00fctzen, ordnungsgem\u00e4\u00df funktionieren. Dieses massive Unterfangen erfordert von der Marine, dass sie best\u00e4tigt, dass jeder einzelne Sensor ordnungsgem\u00e4\u00df funktioniert, und dass sie diejenigen repariert oder ersetzt, die es nicht sind. Um dies zu erreichen, muss die Marine mehr ihrer Piloten f\u00fcr die Durchf\u00fchrung dieser Missionen ausbilden.\n\nDiese Reparaturmissionen, die oft als eine der gef\u00e4hrlichsten in der Marine angesehen werden, sind genau das, was Herr Kossi jahrelang als Pilot tat. Tats\u00e4chlich erhielt er seine Tapferkeitsmedaille f\u00fcr seine Hilfe bei der Abwehr eines Vanduul-Angriffs w\u00e4hrend einer dieser Reparaturmissionen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt glaubt Herr Kossi, dass seine F\u00e4higkeiten besser f\u00fcr den Schutz des Imperiums sind als auf dem Feldzug.\n\nBeck Russum: Eli Vaughn vom Gemma Observer schrieb heute einen Leitartikel, in dem er vorschlug, dass dies nichts anderes als ein Werbegag sei, um die sinkenden Umfragezahlen von Herrn Kossi zu unterst\u00fctzen. Wie reagieren Sie darauf?\n\nNori Ryak: Im Allgemeinen antworte ich nicht, da Eli nicht die aufgeschlossenste Person f\u00fcr Herrn Kossi als Kandidat war. Aber im Ernst, als Reservist hat Herr Kossi jedes Jahr \u00fcber den Dienst berichtet, seit er den aktiven Dienst aufgegeben hat. Das ist nicht anders als das, was er vorher getan hat. Herr Kossi honoriert einfach sein Engagement f\u00fcr die Marine.\n\nBeck Russum: Sollen wir wirklich glauben, dass es hier keine politische Motivation gibt?\n\nNori Ryak: H\u00f6ren Sie, ich wei\u00df, dass wir mitten in einer Kampagne sind, aber nicht alles in Herrn Kossi's Leben sollte durch eine politische Linse betrachtet werden. So sehr ich auch versuche, Kritiker vom Gegenteil zu \u00fcberzeugen, nicht jede Entscheidung, die er getroffen hat, oder jede Aktion, die er durchgef\u00fchrt hat, wurde mit Blick auf seine politische Zukunft getroffen. Es ist wichtig, sich daran zu erinnern, dass Herr Kossi mehr ist als nur ein Kandidat f\u00fcr Jalans Sitz im Senat. W\u00e4hrend er ein Vater, Ehemann, Gemeindeaktivist, Milit\u00e4rveteran, Medal of Valor Empf\u00e4nger und so viel mehr ist, ist alles im Dienst einer einfachen Sache:\n\nEr will die UEE zu einem besseren Ort machen.\n\nPunkt.\n\nHeute plant er, seinem Reich durch diesen freiwilligen Milit\u00e4rdienst zu dienen. Am 3. Mai hofft er, es als Jalans neu gew\u00e4hlter Senator zu tun.\n\nBeck Russum: Vielen Dank f\u00fcr Ihre Zeit heute, Mr. Ryak. Als n\u00e4chstes bringt uns Colt Legrande in die Umkleide, nachdem Terra gestern Abend in der letzten Sekunde gegen Davien verloren hatte. Das und der Rest des Sataball-Ergebnisses, wenn wir zur\u00fcckkehren.\n\nGetriebeunterbrechung >","zh_CN":"< Transmission Begins >\nAlan Nuevo: Good evening.
