To the representatives of the government of Her Majesty Queen Carina of the Kingdom of Bretonia,
I am Chief Secretary for Bretonian Affairs Fumio Egawa of the Republic of Kusari. I hope that this message finds you all in good health.
There has been recent talks amongst top government circles of the Republic of Kusari about the current relations with the Kingdom of Bretonia, and with recent lobbying from prominent Kishiro figures, it has been decided to initiate a diplomatic channel with your government to discuss a potential understanding between both parties.
Members of the Foreign Ministry and members of the Kusari Grand Assembly commission for foreign affairs have started delineating policies that we may propose, but we would like to first receive a sign of interest from your representatives regarding this matter.
The initial negotiations will be conducted on our side by myself as Chief Secretary, and by Foreign Ministry's Secretary Kenji Hashimoto.
We hope to receive your reply soon.
With cordial regards.
Fumio Egawa
Foreign Ministry Chief Secretary for Bretonian Affairs.

Konnichi-wa Mr. Egawa! This is Miles Stuart, CEO of Gateway Shipping Inc. At the behest of the Bretonian Government, I have been appointed as a temporary liaison to the Kusari Republic to help usher in a new Trade Agreement between our nations. They thought this seemed fitting as I have already been in close contact with the head of Kishiro Technologies, and since Gateway has for some time been the only Bretonian-based corporation to enjoy freedom to trade within the Republic.
I will also be working alongside the Bretonian Secretary of State for Trade and Industry, who is currently a bit indisposed. You know how bureaucrats are, I'm sure.
Here are the steps I would suggest as we continue forward with these negotiations:
Step 1. I would suggest that we first have a cross examination of terms for the new Trade Agreement that myself and Kishiro CEO Hiroto Yukimura have put together, and any final objections or changes be brought forward and discussed.
Step 2. Once step one is complete, the Trade Agreement will then need to be ratified by both governments.
Step 3. After step two is done, we can have final signing at a personal meeting of representatives on Planet Curacao in the Cortez system. I can make arrangements with OS&C to accommodate the trade summit. You will love the tea...I assure you.
I look forward to seeing trade more normalized between our nations overall, in the hopes that it will enable us both to throw off the yoke of Gallic oppression and bring freedom and prosperity to all.
Oh yeah....long live the Queen, blah blah, yadda yadda.
-Stuart out.

Greetings Mr. Stuart-san, a pleasure to meet you. I am please our transmission has not been lost in the network before reaching the bretonian offices, or worse, blocked by some cybercrime group.
It is a shame that the esteemed secretary of the Bretonian government is indisposed, and we send our regards and wishes of a speedy recovery.
We welcome the strides that the Gateway Company and Kishiro Technologies have made to move forward this negotiations.
The process you suggested seem in accordance with our own plans, and we find no objections to it.
Some terms are still under discussion, but I guess most of it is ready to be presented and reviewed by your government.

Good evening Mr Egawa,
I am Sir Ambrister Jones, Secretary of State for Trade & Industry. I appologise for my delay, and for having to send this from a data-pad. I'm sure you can understand that in the current times, I am a busy man.
Introductions aside, let us get to the business at hand. Having read through the proposal set forth by yourself, I am pleased to find it fair upon both houses and their corporations. I notice only one mistake in there, based upon a trade agreement you may not be so aware of. You see, our Liaisons Secretary, Miss Hayley Winchester, arranged an agreement with the Samura Heavy Industries corporation. The agreement made ended in their return of trade rights in Bretonia. One of the agreements though, was that they had access to Armed Forces bases, that being some of the Battleships. I would wish this to continue, as advised by our Defence Minister and the Fleet Admiral herself. We have no request in return currently, but would like it to be remembered for future reference.
That said, the rest of the proposed plan of action is decidedly marvelous for me, and by extension, Bretonia. You can consider myself an attendee of any signing you require, alongside Mr Stuart.

Konbanwa Sir Ambrister Jones-san, a honor to make your acquaintance.
I must confess that our staff had not been informed of these agreement made with Samura, most likely because we have no laws or regulations demanding the disclosure of such negotiations by our companies to the government.
So it comes as a surprise that the Bretonian government has allowed access to many of their military installations on that agreement. Of course we have no objections in maintaining such standing in this enlarged treaty.
I shall now list the installations that we deem to be affected by such change, and ask that you confirm this list:
Quote:Battleship York (New London)
Battleship Suffolk (New London)
Battleship Norfolk (Cambridge)
Battleship Macduff (Newcastle)
Battleship Ark Royal (Newcastle)
Battleship Grismby (Newcastle)
Battleship Essex (Dublin)
In light of this change, I would like to propose a related amendment. Since the bretonian government feels confident in giving the Samura Industries access to the previously mentioned installations, I would like to request that Kishiro Technologies be allowed access to those bases, under the same conditions that Samura faces.
I am sure that Kishiro Technologies management and employees are capable to provide benefits and services in their areas of expertise, and that it would be a boon to the Bretonian Armed Forces assets and operating capability.
I am glad that other the points in discussion, the present plan has met your approval.
I await your reply in the matters being negotiated, and the eventual finalization of the treaty in the near future.
Respectfully yours,
Fumio Egawa
Foreign Ministry Chief Secretary for Bretonian Affairs
