The '''Arco-Lunaesa Affair''' was an alleged incident of intelligence activities conducted against [[Washakara]] and members of [[Treaty of International Assistance and Development|TRIAD]] by operatives of [[Arcerion]]'s [[Office of Public Safety and National Security]] (OPSNS). A leak in September of 2014 alleged that two intelligence teams made up of members of the OPSNS had arrived via Eubunga Executive Airport, a private airfield North of Eubunga, the capital city of Washakara, and were actively surveilling and collecting intelligence on communist and socialist delegates attending a conference on [[Crona]]'s role and future membership opportunities for the Treaty of International Assistance and Development. | |||

Arcerion prior to the event had a long history of battling communism and actively seeking out opportunities to degrade and deny socialist access to South Crona. Washakara invited TRIAD ans senior members of several prominent indigenous nations from the immediate geographical region (notably including Malentina and Kelekona) to discuss future opportunities for cooperation and potential membership. | |||
The | The conference was scheduled to take place for a week, between September 4th-11th, 2014 and hosted at the Eubunga National Convention Centre, for roughly six hundred delegates and staff. Arcerion openly had objected to the conference, saying that the subversion of the [[Arco Determinism|Arcosphere]] and the meeting of terrorist elements presented a clear and present danger to its national interest. The itnernational community remained mixed in its response, however the conference took place as scheduled. | ||
On the 10th of September, the Cape Town Free Press, a newspaper based out of [[The Cape]], reported that a source inside the Washakaran State Security service had confirmed that there were agents belonging to Arcerion operating inside Washakara that had arrived undeclared to conduct clandestine missions against the people and government of Washakara. Further, it mentioned that two teams, 'Emile' and 'Francis,' had access to the hotels, conference halls, and private offices of many of the delegates and Washakaran politicians. The report detailed that the teams had arrived on board privately-chartered aircraft through [[South Crona Air]], a company that had a long history of supporting the government of Arcerion and had been considered a covertly owned and operated element of the Office of Public Safety and National Security. | |||
