First of all, this thread is biased to an extent 'The Empire knows this but spread propaganda about this', you can't just jump straight to a conclusion like that when there have been different perspectives and recounts regarding this 'duel'. Some say it was murder, cowardly and treasonous, considering that Ulfric slew Torygg and fled the city on a horse. And some say it was a heroic act and it was to send a message, which is ridiculous and unsupported.

Secondly, the Empire does not support the Thalmor. But then again, this is all a matter of perspective. There is no right or wrong.
