[Message Begins]
Selim.

You were always one of the few people I considered a friend, but as of late you've been disappointing me most greatly. I will confess, I initially supported the move to establish a temporary peace with Bretonia but the operative word in this confession is temporary. I had no plans of becoming their close friend in the Omegas and turning a blind eye as they kill both countrymen and mock the working class by parading around in Dublin. To add insult to injury, I've been approached several times by an outright imperialist to use my influence over our friends, as if to somehow bully them into subservience with arbitrary threats of repercussion.

The Kremlin is decidedly against me on this, they would rather become sock-puppets so long as some new real-estate is secured. But I holster every ship, every man and every gun in my belt. And the People will never stand against the military with the status quo of the current regime being the way it is. Think about it, why would they? We fly above them everyday all year round, commit ourselves to "Glorious" death and ask for nothing in return. They will join because they know we have the monopoly on force, and that if they interfere then they will die.

I am hereby overruling the authority of the Duma and declaring His Watchful Eye a traitor. Presumably you want to keep your office and continue to fairly administrate over the People at large, and admittedly you've done a good job of that. If such is to be the case then I advise that the Kremlin be quite low on your list of places to visit in the coming days. If you intend to take their part and stand against me, then I'm sure you understand what must follow.

We've come too close to a success to forfeit our tradition in favor of collective misguidance. And to deviate any further is to throw us across the line of no return. The Military is ready, they are rested, conveniently steered away from major commitment besides presenting themselves as an object of intimidation above Tangier. It is characteristic of Bretonia to forego all semblance of values giving the sprawling incompetency of its parliament. If you intend to make us identical, then you must understand that I cannot allow it.

I've presented you with two options. And I will present every individual on Canaria or Sydney, whatever the travesty might be with the same. Join, or die. We are to wash out like a raging tide of red across the stars and crucify it in the fires of its own inadequacy. To bring order and ideological purity to every misguided House Government either through our own means or through cooperation with our allies in the pursuit of shared success.

Remember the flag behind you or lie broken with the rest of the Kremlin's occupants.

Guess this were some commissariat codes, don't dig into this.

Somethings obviously gathering around planet Volgograd. Civilian channels, with rare exceptions, silent on any notable matter and we don't sure is it HWE or putschists stopped communications. Still no any statement from Premier's office.

Expeditionary Corps, as well as border guard already stated about their apolitical stance. Didn't speaked with Minister of Plenty yet, but probably she will refrain too. Same could be said about other social services quartered in New Moscow.

Whatever will happens in Kremlin, i believe the supply chain won't be interrupted. Tykovkin - don't choose sides, despite any propaganda you will see or hear. Most of coalition services will continue work as before. Left those internal conflicts to Politburo. Treat vessels with coalition IFF as before, just be careful about what you will tell to the strangers. Better keep your personell, except your officers without knowledge on this matter.

We will inform you if situation will get clear. If anything, we will try to launch reserve retranslator around your sector. Our personell on Kamchatka as well will sustain stable communications with Rostok.

С уважением,
HCSTA A.Novikov.
