Goryo,

I am pleased to hear that there are no objections from the Kusari side regarding our plans for the Taus. Preparations are well underway as we speak, however we have yet to hear from the Crayter Military. I wish to thank you also for providing your assistance should the Gallic Navy attempt any moves against the Harris Alliance.

Moving onto the subject of jump Drives, it is indeed regrettable that such a leak happened. We are now in uncharted waters, and where civilians have to worry only about the upheaval they shall cause on the markets of Sirius, us great people with a military duty to uphold face a greater threat: that of ships appearing out of nowhere and disappearing just as fast. What we have here, Goryo, is a revolutionary development in FTL travel. I intend for my forces to represent the tip of the spear in the BAF, and for them to be well aware of both the capabilities and dangers involved with the use of Jump Drive technology.

Thus, it is only natural that I ask that Bretonia be allowed to observe any future tests of this technological marvel, or should it come to be, seeing it used openly against hostile forces, much as we have done in Dublin. I understand that this comes with great responsibility and at no cheap cost, however I am willing to play the part and see to it that the Bretonian Government approves of any such future joint operations and that our militaries remain in close contact to clamp down on third party Jump Drive technology that may prove to be wholly unstable.

Come what may, I wish to see through a repeat of Dublin's Jump Drive-related successes on the Gallic front within the following decade, so that we might, at long last, bring about justice for Leeds. I look forward to your response on this matter.
