The Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Holy Free, Yangle Paema appeared in a press release of the Holy Freean Embassy yesterday, concerning the death of the Besernian Minister of Family and Social Development, Amelinda Baier. Here are some of his statements;

"... Our sincere condolence. As may the Holy Mother guides her soul. As the incident happened near the border, we offer the government of Besern help in the investigation to provide closure to the friends and family of the deceased. ..."

"... With rumors of the Adellinde river being cursed by the deceased noble coinciding with the high suicide rates is simply a coincidence. The superstitious nature of the rumor is unprovable and is stirring fear in the locals. The rumors are just rumors, do not believe them as fact. ..."

"... [The] death that happened the day before is also a matter of security on the border, we urge for more protective measures on both sides of the border such as coast guards patrolling the river looking for ones that needed help. ..."
