Privyet, mr. Okamura.

I am Commissar-Major Michel de Grasse, SCRA.

Since you might have forgotten, I shall remind you - on behalf of the Premier's office and the Duma - that the SCRA and the Blood Dragons do have a solid treaty.

Since you so blatantly ignored it, we demand to view the proof behind this 'act' of hostilities on your part.

As a last note, regardless of your reply, I have took the pleasure of patching Premier Selim himself to this communication.

For the People's Republic and the Revolution!
- Michel De Grasse

I have not the slightest idea what has possessed you to make such a declaration. The treaty -- a fairly long-standing one given the nature of current Sirian political shifts -- remains binding for both parties.

Might I remind you, since you apparently didn't spend much time glossing over it, that a direct conquest of House Kusari was never our intended goal since such a treaty had been arranged and ratified.

Might I remind you, the Chrysanthemums are really naught but dolls on strings, ready to sell out to the Maltese for their next shot of cardamine when they end up requiring it, and more likely than not going to ultimately oppose you in the end.

And, finally, since you seem unwilling to even cite the exact reason for justifying this declaration of hostilities against the Peoples' Republic, it remains naught but that -- an unbinding declaration. If we knew what had caused such a crass issue to apparently crop up, it might have been solved diplomatically.

So, to that end, the Peoples' Republic shall continue its nominal operations within Kusari. Our munitions will still flow in the general direction of Chugoku, whether you approve or not. If you do -- you might still benefit from them. If you do not -- then we shall use them in war, if we must.

Speak your case, or hold your peace. The Revolution will not be deterred.

For the Motherland, for the Revolution.

Well, then. You can't deny the fact I attempted to take a posture of reason towards this issue. If you want to pride yourself upon reaction instead of revolution, like I thought the Blood Dragons sought, then that will be your moral quandary to contend with.

I suppose I am left no choice but to meet irrationality with irrationality.

The Chrysanthemums are more a thorn in the side than anything else, as far as I am concerned, as of now. I have a good working theory that they are getting in the way of the Coalition, like you are now, and even an indirect hindrance is something I simply cannot negotiate with. Again, they are bound to Maltese tyranny -- that is actual, drug-fueled tyranny, and I need not elaborate, you seem to know them well enough.

You can choose to believe me or ignore me, but the Coalition has tolerated the presence of the Chrysanthemums alongside the Blood Dragons as a favor to allies thus far. That trust has apparently ended up misplaced.

That said, I think I will spare you the breadth of my verbal and emotional wrath, for now. Coalition ships will continue to operate in Kusari, with or without your interference. Hostilities or interdiction attempts will be met with deliberate and exacting force.

We'll be seeing you soon, I'm sure. If it is war you wish, your precious Kusari will have to turn red. Do svydania.
