Greetings Mr. Archer.
The GST is the Galactic Secure Trade Company. Our goal is to trade what we want - legal things, of course - where we want. But as ye know, Many factions have banned many products on their territory : Liberty don't want any goods if you pass through Rheinland, Blood dragons don't want to see diamonds or nobium in Chugoku, Kusari forces don't want to see plutonium in New Tokyo... By the hell ! What can we trade in this galaxy ?
The incident in Liberty began due to a misunderstanding. There are 2 versions of the rules of their embargo
The first one, which Dawn explained to us when we came with alien organisms from Kurile :
Quote:Violation of the Rheinland-Liberty Embargo; Defined as the trade of prohibited goods produced by Rheinland to Liberty or vice-versa (Freight of humanoids is allowed).The violator has the following choices:
-Drop the illegal goods to travel further
-Turn back in order to keep the goods.
Failure to comply will result in death.
The second one :
Quote:Trade Embargo with Rheinland
After the Rheinland Military has entered illegaly our territory, Liberty Government has instated an Embargo on all items heading to and from Rheinland. Only ships transporting humans will be allowed to circulate between both nations. Ships trying to pass will be asked to drop their cargo or to change route; if they don't comply they will be destroyed
In the first, the embargo applies only to goods produced in the Rheinland. So, with our alien organisms from Kurile, we thought that we comply with this rule. But the second prohibited all non-human goods if you pass through Rheinland. After this misunderstanding, Liberty pilots have adopted a very arrogant tone against us. We thought we could calmly explain what we did : just trade and defend ourselves. But they have not listened and we have banned crossing their territory.
We are tired of all these prohibitions in Sirius. We just want to do our job : trading. With all these restrictions, our company's bankruptcy risk. We are not responsible for wars that spread disorder in the galaxy. And we decided not to suffer the consequences of these wars. We'll continue to trade through the galaxy despite some risks.

Thank you for the fast response,
every trading company is hoping that some day the embargo will be lifted
but for now that doesnt seem to happen for now, there are many other
trade routes around sirius most of them are legal to do.
pay the fines to the liberty autorithy say sorry and I think the bounty can be lifted from that point, I hope you learned your lesson, shamefully it was the hard way

From: GST Chief Executive Officer John Burton
To: Mr Archer & All Members of the honorable Zoner Council
Very dear gentlemen,
GST isn't paying fines, never. We do trading agreements, we do escorting of legal convoys, we do emergency rescue of all Zoner and most Trader vessels confronted to pirates or X-Ray tempests, but we don't do paying fines to Military Organizations.
Since the destruction of Freeport 7, Zoners have suffered many Sirius Law Violations from numerous factions. These factions should consider it a great chance for them that companies like GST don't ask the Interstellar Law Enforcement Dpt. to force these militarists to pay fines to the Zoner Council.
For now, GST has found another way of not confronting again with Liberty legal (but arrogant) forces: Our freighters are now trained to escape any sort of Liberty Embargo Vessels.
Sincerely yours,
GST CEO John Burton

Greetings again Mister Archer.
When I wrote my last message 2 days again, I have read the rules of the embargo again. What is your opinion? Do they actually prohibit the transportation of goods from Kurile via Rheinland ? Where is the rule who said trading alien organisms is smuggling ?

when our investigation is done.
