This is indeed a sad day - there was a point that I considered myself to have a good working relationship with the leadership of the congress in the days of Vladimir Tinkerbell - It seems however that the collective wisdom of the Congress has waned somewhat since those days.
My Brothers of the OPG are right to interdict vessels that are carrying Hessian Cargo within our space - and lets get something straight, Cambridge is our space - the fact that there are some Molly squatters and interloping Brettonians there is largely irrelevant. The Hessians, as you are well aware, are an enemy of the Corsair nation and we simply cannot turn a blind eye to vessels that are carrying their goods. This something that should be simple and uncomplicated to grasp. If you must traffic cargo from those inept rock-breakers we of course would discourage it, however let us be pragmatic gentlemen, what we do not see here is in your interests. If we see it, we are obliged to respond.
Now... to the matter of this "bounty" - the OPG may be cavalier about this matter but I however am not, consider very carefully the implications of the doors you are opening here with this.
Cargo that traverses our space is an internal Corsair matter, and all of your pilots should be very well aware that once they enter our space, they do so on our terms. We are very much aware of certain other cargoes that are peddled from your facilities throughout Sirius - we do however, respect your internal matters in this regard and thus take no action to interfere here. Should you not respect our terrorial and sovereign rights to dicate policy within our own space then let me assure you gentlemen, we do very much have the means to interfere and this is something I am sure none of us would prefer.

Your recourse here is simple, do not traffic our enemies cargo through our space, secondly, i would strongly recommend that you recall this ill advised bounty of yours, lest you honestly wish to reap what you will sow.

Laowai out.
