Guten Tag, Sehr geehrter President White.
The Rheinland government is glad that we were able to come to an agreement which suits both sides and is mutually fully equal. As I said in my previous message, we believe that this will help to improve our relations.
Now when this matter is closed, we would like to open a new one. As you may or may not know, there was some development in the Dresden system, which was for quite some time battleground between the Rheinland forces and the terrorists from the Red Hessian movement, which was supported by other criminal and terrorist organizations fighting by their side. This system lost economic value a long time ago but was held for strategic reasons, however after the war with the Kusari Empire broke out, the military had to redeploy part of their forces elsewhere and the enemy used this situation recently for a major offensive, which resulted in the strategic retreat of the Rheinland forces back to the New Berlin system where they regrouped and fortified their position again, using the advantage of proximity of the reinforcements from the Wildau Station.
Now to the point. Because the jumpgate connection between New Berlin and Dresden system lost any value for the Bundesrepublik in the current situation and is now actually considerable safety and security risk, we would like to have it closed. It goes without saying that after the previous experience from the wartime emergency shutdown of gates to Bering and Hudson systems which lead to the crisis with an unstable wormhole, the government prefers to do it in a safer way by cooperation with your corporation and its experts, despite it means risks caused by the time delay. Thus we would like to ask what would be required to achieve this goal as soon as possible.
