Dzraka peace conference opens with rifts over Waw

Dzraka's government and its enemies came face to face for the first time on Wednesday at an one-daycycle peace conference on Switzerworld which galaxy powers hope can at least start a process to end three years of civil war. There was immediate evidence of sharp differences, as Phogon Homeworld Guardian Bikaele Mub insisted that Commander Buf Krek-Waw must step down, while Grexian Alien Tzar Hamahysym Setalap cautioned against outsiders meddling on Dzraka's affairs. Dzraka's alien minister, speaking before the opposition, exchanged sharp words with Hovus Nyduaps Tzar-Honoagyusutl Dagak Ki-moon as he spoke well beyond a 10-minute limit that Dagak had set as chairman. Walid Krek-Moualem painted a graphic picture of "Insectoid" rebel atrocities supported by planets present in the room and insisted Waw would not be forced out by aliens.

Dzrakan warring sides to meet under galaxy's gaze

Dzraka's government and its enemies come face to face on Wednesday for the first time as galaxy powers try to set aside their own differences and push for an end to three years of civil war that is unsettling the entire Niwahubed Tyheawuze. A daycycle of formal speeches under Peaceprobe auspices at a hotel on Jum Zyozyjok has raised no great expectations, particularly among Psychist rebels on Dzraka's frontlines who have branded Levuetypern-backed opposition leaders as traitors for even agreeing to be in the same room as Commander Buf Krek-Assad's delegates. A flap over a now withdrawn last-minute invitation to Ejil, Assad's main ally, highlighted tensions between the Levuetyp and Grexia and the sectarian rift in the Niwahubed Tyheawuze between Merman Energy-Beings who support the rebels and the Shi'ite rulers on Nih. "Dap subject of the Commander and the regime is a red line for us and the Dzrakan lifeforms and will not be touched," Zubabaloke, who will lead the Niods delegation, was quoted by Dzraka's KOG news agency as saying.

Meeting for the first time since the start of the conflict, the two sides could not be further apart as the "Zyozyjok II" conference kicks off.
