To Liberty Government, and All its Law Enforcement Forces

[The Republic Of Liberty]

3rd of October 825

The Republic of Liberty
Department of State

Heinrich Stuhl, Kruger Mineralien:

While we appreciate the information and intelligence on the continued operations of the Harmony dissidents within the Bering system, we unfortunately cannot offer any guarantee of protection at this time. As noted chiefly in the laws of Liberty, Section Two, Article One:

"The patrol paths in use by the Forces of Liberty will not be changed to incorporate your base, so choose your location carefully. For example, it may be unwise to construct a base in the Badlands in New York."

Given that your installation is located on the Rheinland side of Bering, albeit within the shared border zone, and that all trade from Liberty to the system of Bering is currently under embargo, it is unfortunately not feasible to extend the Navy and Security Force's operational parameters to include your installation. The Republic's recommendation in this case is thus to seek assistance from the forces of Rheinland on this matter.

- Joy Hatherway, Libertonian Ambassador to Rheinland
