Greetings Admiral Chandler,

The Republic of Liberty and the Liberty Navy are and will remain one of your biggest friends.

To clarify your concerns, I was also notified by the recent incidents by my pilots and command members. While unfortunate I have to say that both instances have happened as a result of misinformation. While I am not responsible for actions of the 5th fleet, from what I have conversed with their Vice Admiral, they were not aware of your logistics convoy designations and mistook it for an actual squadron. Despite our joint operations and coalignment, you are still recognized as a foreign military by Liberty law, with the exception being your logistics vessels. Hence the confusion that lead to the incident. As for our pilot's claims, he is a veteran pilot that was using as a point of reference the 819 variant of the treaty, back when it was first forged and the pilot was made aware and such issue is not expected to happen again.

Moving on from these incidents I have to clarify that such small incidents do not in any way of a malevolent nature but a mere result of the confusion of the operational forces and by no means is the Republic of Liberty willing to pass away the years of sacrifice and war that our forces have endured together against the Gallic and pirates threats ever since the forging of the Treaty.

I once again have to say that Liberty is and will remain one of your biggest friends, and as such we are looking forward to future cooperation of our forces and nations, military and otherwise.

Best of Regards,

Alan Jones
Fleet Admiral, First Fleet
