Declaration on Suppression of Religious Freedom in Switzerland - 2009.11.29

The Republic of Capricornia and the Federated Micronations reject the decision of the Swiss People to ban the building of Minarets. This ban threatens to kindle an unprecedented religious conflict in the heart of Europe. It is an insult against the Muslims of Switzerland and all over the world, including those living in the Federated Micronations, but also against the history and spirit of Switzerland. A full economic boycott will be levied upon Switzerland, with the exception of the 4 Cantons voting against the ban, Geneva, Basel city, Neuchatel and Vaud. Further diplomatic measures will be discussed with the Federated Micronations council.

Declaration on the Russian-Georgian Conflict - 2008.08.11

The Republic of Capricornia formally declares its support of the Souvereignity of the Republic of Georgia (Caucasus) and demands full withdrawal of the Russian Occupation Forces from Georgia's territory. The rights of the people in Abchasia and South Ossetia must be maintained. Autonomy or independence of parts these two states is an option which can be discussed only after a full withdrawal of all Russian Forces from the territory of Georgia and its replacement by international peace forces, and only taking into regard the proportions of the local population which is ethnic Abkhas / Ossetian vs. Georgian, BEFORE the expulsions which took place between 1991 and 2008.
As long as the withdrawal of the Russian Forces has not taken place, the Republic of Capricornia will freeze all relations with the Russian Federation, including economic relations.
