--Public Broadcast to all News Channels--

To our great disappointment the Colonial Remnant leadership has rejected the terms of our ultimatum, namely that they should respect our existing ceasefire agreement. It is therefore with deepest regret that I must announce the following:

The Bretonian Government is determined that Her Majesty's Privateers be able to continue their strategy of economic warfare unhindered by Colonial Forces.

To that effect, and in light of the Colonial Remnant threat to destroy our Privateering Corps, we consider it prudent to deploy an increased BAF Fleet into Tau space, to counter any such threats against our Privateers.

From this moment forth, Colonial vessels seen obstructing our war effort in any way, be it economic supply of our enemies, obstruction of our Privateers, threats against any vessels of Bretonian origin, or actively assisting the KNF, shall be subject to summary termination by all lawful agents of the Crown of Bretonia and allies thereof. Similarly any Colonial aligned vessels entering Bretonian Space shall be shot on sight.

Should the Colonial Remnant reconsider their ill-advised decision to precipitate the re-opening of hostilites with the Bretonian Crown, their attempts to sue for Peace shall be considered if and only if they unconditionally renounce all support, active or passive, of the Kusari Empire and their invasion of Tau space.
