Konnichiwa honorable minister, during last month I have seen a lot of different reports about activities in Tau-23 and Tau-29.
Our traders report about an increase in activity from outcasts, gallic pirates and even from those colonial scum. Colonials target your house traders and pirates do not care about targets, so they pirate and destroy all that they see. This does not help either of our houses because supplies do not reach their destinations.
So we are offering our help in patrolling the tau twenty three system, to help defend traders that are travelling between Kusari and Gallia. Also today I recieved report about your marshal entering Kyushu system, as i was told it was an emergency situation, but to prevent it from happening again we believe he shouldn't be located so close to Kyushu jumpgate at all. That is why we prepeared this treaty, to establish more powerful ties between our two houses and formalize all movements in taus.
Treaty of Tau: Tau-23
1.1 Kusari Naval Forces receiving rights to patrol space in Tau-23 north of red line.
1.2 Kusari Naval Forces will not cross red line unless invited by GRN forces.
1.3 Kusari Naval Forces will not enforce Kusari laws in Tau-23 system. Tau-29
2.1 Kusari Naval Forces have rights to patrol space in Tau-29 with exception of 5k radius around Tau-31 gate.
2.2 Kusari Naval Forces have right to enforce Kusari laws in North and East part of Tau-29 system.
2.3 Gallic Royal Navy will not cross red line unless invited by KNF forces.
2.4 West and South part of Tau-29 system remains neutral and serves as buffer zone between two houses.
we believe that these terms are acceptable for both houses, It will also allow you to cut your patrols in both Tau-23 and Tau-29 and redirect them to frontlines, where they will help you to crush enemies of your house, and ours to some extent.
This is gesture of goodwill to our neighbor, from new Kusari, to new friends.

Message Start: Bonjour Minister of Defence Kirihara Misaki,
an interesting set of proposals and on the whole a scholarly appraisal of the current situation within those systems. In general we are in accord with your suggested Treaty of Tau, however we would suggest the following would be a more useful wording.
[size=small]
[color=#009900]Tau-23
[color=#00CCCC]1.1 Kusari Naval Forces receive rights to patrol all space within Tau-23.
1.2 If the situation arises Kusari Naval Forces will defer to the commands of Official GRN|/GRP| commands when both are in-system.
1.3 Kusari Naval Forces will not enforce Kusari laws in Tau-23 system.
1.4 Kusari Naval Force vessels will provide assistance to Gallic shipping if needed.
Tau-29 2.1 Kusari Naval Forces have rights to patrol designated space within Tau-29.
2.2 For Law Enforcement purposes the system can be divided North/South by a vertical meridian running through the sun. Kusari Naval Forces have right to enforce Kusari laws within the east and GRN| within the west of Tau-29 system.
2.3 Gallic Royal Navy will not cross red line unless invited by KNF forces and vice versa, unless in bona fide active enforcement action.
2.4 A strip of space 5 km east and west of the vertical divide of Tau-29 remains neutral and thus provides a buffer zon2 of 10 km between the two houses.
We hope this is a suitable form of words for ratification.

Konnichiwa Reynaud-san, your wording are more than acceptable, but we would like to add one addition about Shinkaku station in Tau-29.
2.5 Kusari Naval Forces have rights to patrol designed area to west of central line, to provide defence to Shinkaku station and to transports moving to it.
If you agree to accept that addition, we are ready to sign Treaty of Tau right away.

we understand your need to provide support for the Samura station within Tau-29.
As a consequence we suggest the following would be an acceptable understanding that could forthwith be classed as the Tau Decree.

[color=#00CCCC]1.1 Kusari Naval Forces receive rights to patrol all space within Tau-23.

1.3 Kusari Naval Forces will not enforce Kusari laws in Tau-23 system.
1.4 Kusari Naval Force vessels will provide assistance to Gallic shipping if needed.

2.2 For Law Enforcement purposes the designated space will be classed as follows. The system can be divided North/South by a vertical meridian running through the sun. Kusari Naval Forces have right to enforce Kusari laws within the east and GRN| within the west of Tau-29 system.
For the purposes of protecting Shinkaku Station and its shipping traffic Kusari forces can patrol space in a circle with a radius of 10 km around the station and a trianglar area with verticies of Shinkaku Station, Tau-23 Jump Hole and Freeport 6.
This Shinkaku annex area will thus be shared between both House forces.
2.3 Gallic Royal Navy will not leave the aforementioned designated space unless invited by KNF forces and vice versa, unless in bona fide active enforcement action.
2.4 A strip of space 5 km east and west of the vertical divide of Tau-29 remains neutral and thus provides a buffer zon2 of 10 km between the two houses.
