Guten Tag, Sehr geehrter Chief Executive Officer White.
The "long-lasting right to confiscate Whiteboxes™" you mention is not part of any Sirian house laws but The Republic of Liberty. Obviously, the Bundesrepublik Rheinland is not the only house which does not see appropriate to give foreign corporation, or even more of them, right to act similarly as their domestic law enforcement.
Now while I appreciate detailed analysis of why the exclusivity should be added to laws, you still did not give me direct and clear answer to my question. Thus I need to ask again - is Ageira Technologies refusing to repair the jump gate without the requested change of Rheinland laws?
I would like to note that your answer to this question will be quite important for some Bundestag and government representatives, because even on the first meeting where whole issue was prelimiary presented, some expressed doubts if this is still respectful negotiation or it changed into one-sided pressure from your side. This is the reason why your clear statement is needed. Choose wisely.
To elaborate further, there are also some that consider polite -request- for higher protection of your products as understandable. If I may give a little recommendation, it could be quite useful to mention specific reasons why it is necessary and what threats can appear if they stay unprotected. Especially threats related to Rheinland´s interests. Maybe things are obvious for you, but they may be not for some Rheinland legislators. If they would see whole picture and better understand what is this request about, they might be more willing to approve your exclusivity.
However, asking to add even two more Liberty corporations to get the same special rights brings even more questions and begs for more answers why it is necessary. Especially when it comes to Universal Shipping, which was completely banned from Rheinland space during war with Liberty and thus it is clear that maintenance of docking rings, trade lanes, jump gates was possible for several years without them. Logically, some representatives will ask what role which deserves their inclusion between the priviliged parties they have apart from simple delivery of the hardware from Liberty to intended destination.
