Minister,

I am pleased to announce that Sir Ambrister Jones, the Crown's Prime Minister, has approved and signed the agreement decided on Planet Carlisle with Crayter delegates. We are most interested in continuing onto this path of cooperation and hope that the Republic will also hold interest in collaboration with the Kingdom of Bretonia in both internal and external affairs in the coming years.

For ease of access, I am attaching the treaty, once more, below. I wish you a pleasant day.
