Greetings, All,
For those who do not know me, I am Dr. John Holliday, founder of Med Force Enterprises and a resident of Erie. It has been some time since I reached out to you all. In fact, awhile back, I was contacted by someone from the 46th fleet to see about trying to smooth relations over between the Zoner people and the government of Liberty. I wish to attempt that process again.
At the time that hostilities began, Med Force Enterprises was not in the position that it is now. We had no say in the declaration of hostilities and much like the authorities of Liberty, we were caught not only by surprise but were also caught in the middle. We tried to remain a neutral entity but had our own shot out of the sky in the fighting. On the surface of Erie, concerned Zoner citizens who have lived there for generations were looking for the Insurgents that were the focal point of the conflict. To this day, we keep an eye out for them. Our biggest problem is not the Insurgents but Zoner resistance fighters who side with their cause and continue the fight. I know I have driven a few off of my lands. They are out there but well concealed. Perhaps some positive dialogue between us will help to resolve this.
I would like to think that my past history with the Liberty government would mean something. It was my people of Med Force Enterprises that trained the personnel of the 46th fleet combat medicine and advanced first aid techniques. We also assisted in upgrading medical systems on ship and for personal equipment. The experience was positive and well remembered by us all. Working with the late Admiral Creed was an honor.
So I would like to propose opening some dialogue. Personally, I think this continued hostility is pointless. Zoners and Libertonians lived in peace for decades before all of this and I believe can continue to do so. I will keep this channel open to chat with anyone that is willing to talk. I will even meet on neutral ground and will pay for the food and drink. I await your reply.
Respectfully,
Dr. John Henry Holliday

Doc Holiday,
While the insurgency has been militarily defeated, scattered remnants and cells are still a threat to homeland security. Likewise anti-insurgency operations are still ongoing in Pennsylvania and Planet Erie iteslf. The Liberty Navy and the Liberty Government will remain in contol of the system and the planet and the current state of affairs is unlikely to change until the processing of all the insurgency affiliated individuals and entities and zoner groups has been completed and established.
As such I regret to inform you that the Liberty Government is currently not considering the opening of negotiations at this time.
However keep in mind that zoners themselves are not the enemy, but rather the resistance to the application of the the Laws of Liberty is. As the situation is expected to eventually return to normality, consideration will be given to the zoners once more. However for now as the anti-insurgency operation and the processing of suspects continues, the status quo remains.
My personal advice for you Doc Holiday would be to at all times respect the Laws of Liberty when in Liberty territory, maintain distance from dissident groups of criminal or insurgent affiliation, and not to interfere with the current operations. This will ensure that when stability returns and reconsiderations are given to zoners, you find yourself in the right side of the Law and possibly officially welcomed in Liberty once more.
Shall you find yourself in trouble or in need of further assistance, please let me know.
Best Regards,
Alan Jones

Admiral Jones,
At least someone within your government had the courtesy to finally reply. I thank YOU for that. As to not opening negotiations, it was someone from the 46th that reached out to me some time back so somebody is interested but I digress.
No, the Zoners are not your enemy but someone within the House of Liberty opted to make them as such and many, myself included, were caught in the middle with greater powers that be declaring hostilities.
These insurgents? By now they have scattered to wherever because they did not find themselves welcomed amongst us due to the attention we did not want.
For now, we will stand by.

Doc Holiday,
I thank you for your understanding.
We are in fact interested in maintaining relations with your netural group as we see no probable cause for otherwise. However relations will be re-established more formally once the operations and the processing has concluded.
With hope, that will be as soon as possible.
Best Regards,
Alan Jones
