Pizza diplomacy

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Pizza diplomacy, alternatively named Fastfood diplomacy, is a sort of communication via informal ways allegedly used by the Walnerian Bureau for Security of the Confederacy. It is named after Pizza, as allegedly, delivery services, such as Pyramid Pizza are the major ways of informal data delivery. This communication channel involves a Walnerian state organ, possibly an embassy, a consulate or any other organ stationed in a foreign country, ordering pizza to be delivered to an embassy, government building or any other object rented or otherwise owned by another government agency or secret service of a foreign country. The delivery driver is an agent of either the RBSA or secret service of another country, allowing classified documents or any other memo to be added to the delivery.

2022 Delamaria data leak

On August 8 2022, a report from the diplomatic communication between Delamaria and Walneria has been accidentally published without removal of a classified section proposing a data exchange between the two countries using the Pyramid Pizza shop in Labrador, in relation to the percieved threat posed by a communist bloc formed Velaheria, Stedoria and West Sanarija.

Government of Walneria's official response suggest, that their public document archive has been hacked by a group of anarchists adding in the section as "Government ordering boneless pizza" has become a sort of an Internet meme among the young generation. Administrator of the archive has allegedly been repremanded, but was not fired or demoted and continues to run the website, adding to the public's suspicion over an accidental leak.

Official explanation

Official statements of the Walnerian Bureau for Security of the Confederacy are, that they are not aware of any such activity, as embassies and installations outside of Walneria do not fall into their competence.

Government of Walneria's expalanation is, that ambassadors of the Confederacy of Walneria have been instructed to sometimes order food delivery from Walnerian bussinesses in the area, both to support local Walnerian enterprise, and to propagate Walnerian cuisine to foreign government apparatus. As an example, the Prime Minister of Walneria has said, that just the embassy workers in Gromųva, Dazhdinia, has ordered in a single June week 33 meals from companies originating in Walneria, out of which there were 15 orders from Pyramid Pizza and 9 orders from Gesno alone, the rest being mostly from Walnerian and Ustokan restaurants across the city.

During the same time span, four pizzas were sent, one to the embassy of Orioni, as the ambassador in Dazhdinia was celebrating their birthday, two to the Gromųva C.A.O. city council, as the ambassador was invited to parttake in a venue and brought it as a symbolic gift. The last one was given to one control commissioner, allegedly because they asked about what food they should try on their vacation in the Granite Mountains.
