In a released statement today, Japican leadership officially withdrew a proposed amendment that would have granted Cubnians greater access to education and given them other unspecified rights. This action comes in response to the assassination of the Japican Security Minister earlier today.
As of this post - Cubnian have neither claimed nor denied responsibility for the assassination.
The text of the press release is below.
Given the hostile actions against the Japican authorities by the Cubians, the proposed amendment to provide rights to the Cubnians has hereby been terminated. It is an unfortunate circumstance that this group which once seemed like a worthy ally has turned against us without precedent, although the Japican government accepts this fact and is willing to take actions that will prevent the further attempts of harm towards the nation and its leaders. We are insulted and hurt by this senseless violence that has been directed towards me and my cabinet when we only tried to provide equal rights and stability for our troubled country.
