Europe Triumphant as Copenhagen is Liberated; Russia Continues to Retreat

July 14, 2020-What may come as a surprise to many comes naturally to Commander Scott Mitchell. Mitchell says that he always knew that Russia would retreat eventually, as did EF President Nathalie Perreau last week. Sure enough, these predictions were verified this week as much of northeast America was liberated from their Spetznaz occupiers. The SGB's brief stay in places like Springfield, Massachusetts, and Three Mile Island, Pennsylvania, struck at the heart of Commander Mitchell. He and President Beccera organized an offensive to strike back at the Russian Federation, the 3rd attack by the JSF in the New England area over the past month. "Currently, the JSF in the Midwest is very close to retaking Fort Campbell," Major Alice Dennison of the JSF says. "However, the same cannot be said for Grissom AFB and the rest of Indiana." Grissom, which has been held by Russia for almost the entirety of this 2 month war, has seen fighting for 3/4 of the time the airbase has been in SGB hands. While the fighting has been going on in the north, the EF has promised to withdraw from North Carolina and back into Georgia.
One possible cause of the sudden Spetznaz retreat is the fact that Presidents Becerra and Perreau have been talking of a cease fire between the 2 factions. Apparently, the talks succeeded, and Pamlico has seen very little fighting over the past week. Is the Russian destruction in America almost over? "We aim to have ejected the Russians from America in 1 month," Major Dennison says.
In Europe, the front page headline this week is the liberation of Copenhagen. The citizens in Denmark's former capital were "terrified for the entire occupation," says one anonymous civilian. In Greece, the fortress called "impossibly impenetrable" by SGB General Sergei Izotov, is very close to falling to Enforcer Corps troops. The capture of the city would mean that all of Europe would be under the EF's control again. European troops are also very close to taking the Russian army base of Fort Levski. "The loss of the fort would be a huge blow to Russia's morale," says EF head propagandist LeRoyce Rider.
Despite all of the wins from the "Paris-Washington Axis," as the America-EF alliance is being called by the press, the Euro attacks in Ukraine have been ineffective, especially at the Russian strongholds of Carpathia and the much sought after Black Sea port of Sevestapol.
This war has changed very much in the 2 months it has been going on for. What changes will next week bring us? Will the Washington-Paris Axis continue to dominate, or will the Russian Federation rebound and slaughter once again? In San Diego, I'm Bruce Feld, signing off.
