Samizdat	European Union

The State of Samizdat has not declared war on any sovereign nation, though it did declare war on the European Union on the 25th January 2020. This followed several warnings made to the European Commission on the issue of the Brexit Withdrawal Treaty. Samizdat considers the EU Treaty to be an attack on the freedoms and rights of the British people and intended the declaration of war to reflect this.

Our reason for sending this warning is that the British people have been betrayed by their representatives, and that unbeknown to them, the Withdrawal Bill was passed by parliament on the 22nd on October and is now British law.

Background

Tensions between the State of Samizdat and the EU had been high before the declaration of war in January 2020. On 3 July 2019, when the EU's head of diplomacy, Josep Borrell, was declared persona non grata; the government responded with its first warning on a declaration of war.

The State of Samizdat regards the EU's Withdrawal Treaty as an act of humiliating aggression against the British people. We reserve the right under the Charter of the United Nations to declare war on the European Union in "self-defence". If the EU pushes the Withdrawal Agreement through the UK government without the consent of the British people, the State of Samizdat will first give an explicit warning under Article 1 of the Hague Convention (III) of 1907, then make a formal Declaration of War announcement before opening hostilities.

— Warning on Declaration of War, 9th August 2019

On 14 October 2019, the State of Samizdat demanded the resignation of German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

The declaration of war did not extend to EU member states, but rather the European Union itself; due to the EU, although not a sovereign nation, acts like a sovereign nation, according to Samizdat. It has a flag, national anthem and even aspires to having its own army. Therefore considering it right to denounce the European Union as a "pretend nation".

In its final warning to the EU on the 24th October 2019, the State declaring the following:

With this warning we are making it clear to the European Commission that a state of war will exist between the EU and the State of Samizdat if the Withdrawal Treaty is ratified. A final, formal Declaration of War will be sent to the EU by the State of Samizdat, as required under the Charter of the United Nations. This declaration is legal under the UN charter in cases of self-defence. We regard this situation as a direct attack against the British people who have the right to defend themselves from EU enslavement.

On 27 January 2020, the State of Samizdat declared the EU Withdrwal Treaty to be null and void along with all other treaties [and] agreements passed by the European Union and ECC since its foundation, declaring they had no legal validity after having been declared "illegal" by state decree. Treaties noted included the Maastricht Treaty, Treaty of Rome‎ and the Treaty of Lisbon‎.

As of time of writing, a state of war between the EU and Samizdat still exists. So far there have been several attacks launched against the MicroWiki page of the State of Samizdat insofar the date of the declaration of war. (26 January 2020) The attack was carried out by a group calling itself the gayniggersrevengeforce. The deleted content was restored by MicroWiki.

A new pro-EU radical feminist group calling itself the League for European Federalism in Samizdat (LEFS) has since threatened to overthrow the government of Samizdat. The group's demands, which were published in a social network called Minds, included a demand that Greta Thumberg be declared "a national hero".
