The Security Bureau has been monitoring the situation within the Republic of Liberty for the past months to a year. Our operatives have personally inspected the system of Vespucci, Ontario, and beyond and have gathered intelligence on Liberty. Several months ago we came to the assessment that due to their now remote location and domestic issues, The Liberty Navy and Security Forces pose no threat to Gallic Navy operations in the foreseeable future.
As a result of this, I am issuing orders to cease all hostilities with Liberty forces. Should you encounter the Security force or Navy operatives within our territories then engage in dialogue, and educate them about Gallia and our Laws. The Security Bureau is authorized to share intelligence with Liberty's military intelligence and Security Forces as they see fit and prudent. Ageira is to be allowed trading within Gallia, and other trading corporations of Liberty are to be welcome to engage in commerce and when on our territories are to be under the full protection of the Gendarmerie, who should announce the domestic impacts of these changes to citizens.
Direction of the Combined Fleet
We are not our past. I know a lot of you are still open to the idea of a Kingdom, but our past should not tie our hands. We are here to build a strong and powerful Gallia. Our present operations will focus on who our real enemies are - the Kingdom of Bretonia and their puppets the Crayter Republic. They announced to annex Tau territories, murdered hundreds of Gendarmes in cold blood, and sided with the Alien menace when they destroyed our Barge and seized and destroyed Gallic infrastructure. They cannot be allowed to usurp the resources and people of the Taus with their expansive brutality.
They are the real enemy, and the Taus must be protected from their destructive hand. To achieve our objectives we must be able to focus, however. As the conflict with Bretonia and Crayter rages in the Taus, we are to treat any encounters with the forces of Kusari with caution, using force only as the last resort, honoring the wording of the THE TREATY OF RISHIRI (ADJUSTED) when possible. We will not make the same mistake the King made when he fought on increasingly large amounts of fronts at once, our focus remains on repelling Bretonia and Crayter from the Tau regions, keeping the faint Maquisard presence with more bark than actual bite in check and attempting to deter the Outcasts from poisoning Gallia with their destructive drugs.
I once again thank the Main Fleet, Security Bureau, and the Gendarmerie for their efforts and following the spirit of these orders.
