It's been some time since my last attempt to contact your office. With the formal end of martial law, and the drastic reshuffling of many of our assets, I feel the need is paramount to inform Crayter directly of changes within the Republic.
To begin, we have reached an agreement with Intersun Lines to see the Republic's capital vessel returned to our administration. While we recognize that the Barcelona was of high importance to Intersun's regional business ventures, the vessel is of far greater importance to the Republic, and with developments made as of late, the ship is needed in an official capacity at the utmost urgency.
Next, as I'm sure the Military has been briefed, the Republic has begun construction of an orbital facility within the Malacca Ring to serve as a port for the Armed Forces' remaining heavy assets, as well as to assist in processing both Lipari hopefuls and to provide the system's settlements with a source of food not subject to Borneo's radical environment. Crayterian vessels naturally have full docking access, and once the station is finished will be permitted to base, supply, and trade with personnel aboard the station. I am aware this matter did not go through standard channels, and the Republic will endeavour to avoid such actions in the future. However, given the Republic's position, we ask that an understanding be had regarding this action.
Finally, as I stated before, the Republic has seen a formal end to martial law, and will begin reinstating democratic processes over the course of the next few months. Further discussions regarding the future of the Republic in its entirety will be made by myself and the remaining secretaries of the late President de la Zerda's cabinet within the coming weeks, and we will endeavour to inform our friends on Yuma of any developments that come forward.
Should you have any questions, Ms. Ward, please do not hesitate to direct them my way. On that note, should you be able to provide clarification into the matters I arose in my previous transmission, I would be grateful if you could do so.
