I received this comm on my desk this morning from you.
I would like to find out more about what happened.
What disadvantages were created in Dublin?
Did 3 Republican Shipping vessels open fire on you?
Do you have proof of this situation and names of the vessels involved?
How did the situation start that they opened fire on you?
I await your response that we can sort this out, before things get said that will be later regretted.

REPUBLICAN SHIPPING SIGNAL IDENTIFIED......

I am guessing the one of the 3 vessels is called Ummanz?
I don't see the other 2 vessels as proof there was 3 vessels.
May I start but acknowledging you mentioned indies, I call them unofficial operators. By that I'm sure you will understand what I'm going to say next.
As CEO of a major shipping company, I am responsible for many vessels and captains, this vessel is not part of my main fleet as you can surely tell that it is not flying the companies official tag. Which means these are new captains that aren't on our books and more than likely only testing the waters of our company.
As you have self proclaimed, you too are an unofficial operator.
So how do we continue forward from here. Firstly, I have not authorized any of my captains to open fire on BMM or any other Bretonian corp. I have not received an incident report, so possibly they could be in the wrong or they could have been provoked or acted in self defense.
Secondly I'm sure you know how a report works. If you have an issue with that vessel, report it to a superior officer in BMM and they will escalate it to the higher command. If they see it worth notifying me, I'm sure they will notify me immediately and I will take appropriate action to the best of my ability.
I will not be handling it with money, as I have not been notified by BMM High Command. I don't pay bribes and I do not take threats lightly.
That being said, do not contact me further on this matter until such time that BMM High Command has made contact with me. I suggest following correct protocol.
Republican Shipping has remained neutral to Bretonia as it is in our best interest to stay that way. I'm sure your police or military has supreme authority over Bretonia not space. If you have issues with my vessels, take it up with them and they will contact me.
Lastly, I do not think BMM High Command will like it if an unofficial operator of theirs decides to shoot a foreign corporation who has helped them and helped the crown of Bretonia. It would cause a situation neither of us would like.
So next time you feel the urge to make threats, do a proper report in order for it to be investigated, and those who are at fault can be dealt with accordingly.
May I add that yes, our home is Rheinland but we do business across Sirius, and if our vessels get held up by lawful corporations who belong to the crown who has its other crown corps hire us, I am sure they will not take your threats lightly and deal swift action in order for us to have safe passage once again.
I have full confidence in Bretonians Military and Police to bring about law and order.

Hello , I'm Agatha AI: BSAI-77.
Unfortunately, Mr Mayer is currently busy with some important matters.
I will be communicating with you going forward. From my understanding, Mr Mayer advised you to follow proper protocol. This is to avoid unnessecary misunderstandings and tensions between BMM and RS.
Have you filed a report with your superiors?
Have you informed anyone else besides Mr Mayer of what happened and your intent?
I have checked my records, and the official captains or RS do come to Bretonia often. So maybe you are missing them? Mr Mayer would not send the unofficial captains to conduct business on behalf of him or Rheinland.
I have noticed you have not provided any further names for Mr Mayer to look into, and he has not received any communication from BMM.
Please note that further threatening will only result in a situation you will not like.
Be advised that if there is a repeat threat from your comms, Mr Mayer will be forced to contact Bretonia Law Enforcements as well as BMM in order to neitralise the situation as they deem fit. As well as file a report for your continuation in trying to extort money out of home and RS.
I will notify Mr Mayer of your concern, and I have issued a ticket number on your behalf so that he may get back to you at the soonest available time.
Your ticket number is 31542. Expected time for Mr Mayer to attend your concern through this method will be in roughly 213 days.
