Respected leaders of the Guild,
Given the regrettable events occurring in Sigmas systems recently - in particular House Rheinland war declaration against Gas Miner Guild - the Admiralty wishes to establish reliable communication channels with the Guild, so that Kusari Naval Forces can guarantee civilians protection in House Kusari sovereign space, and protect its citizens in Sigmas systems.
The Republic of Kusari Ministry of Defense recently gave the Admiralty an order to find alternate routes towards House Rheinland, the main one going through Sigma 13 system being dramatically impacted by the conflict to come. House Kusari indeed does have very close economic ties with House Rheinland; trade traffic between both Great Houses must continue.
Kusari Naval Forces identified an exploitable path going through Sigma 21 and Sigma 15 system and began the construction of an outpost in Sigma 21 system to patrol this alternate route and guarantee traffic safety in the system.
The Admiralty hopes Gas Miner Guild will assist Naval Forces against the threats posed by Corsairs and Outcasts in the system, and won't attempt to target Rheinlandic citizens using the corridor, as such an act could cause unnecessary tensions that may lead to deplorable consequences for all parties involved.
I'm also taking advantage of this communication to humbly remind Gas Miner Guild the old Aomori Treaty is still regarded as void by the Republic of Kusari, its content being still enforced as a courtesy towards the Guild, but binding in no way House Kusari anymore. Furthermore, please do note this treaty does not mention Sigma 21 system, which is an issue for mutual recognition and cooperation in the system.
Regrettably, it's been years a new treaty should have been forged. I humbly advise you to contact the Republic of Kusari representatives to initiate talks towards the resolution of this issue.
I will of course try to address any issues or inquiries you may have with our forces until then.
Respectfully,
Admiral Mochizuki Tatsuya,
Kusari Naval Forces.
