Esteemed Crayterian Leadership,

I reach you today with a diplomatic matter that pertains to the Republic. In recent months Maltese Hispania has witnessed a surge of surreptitious movements, like terrorists of Maltese Opposition Army and "Republic of Malta" renegades. While the former have already been dealt with, the latter still exist and send us "ultimatums". Normally, that would not concern you, but this case is different as you can yourself see from the attached above claim of theirs about being supported by the Crayter Republic and issue their ill-grounded demands from your space. In this regard, before taking any actions, we implore you to clarify the position of the Republic on this matter, namely:

1. Clarify stance of Crayter Republic on Maltese Renegades
   
2. Comment claims of the Maltese Renegades to be supported by the fleet of Crayter
   

Harbouring these traitors per se is, albeit frowned upon, not a grave issue. Backing them up, however, is meddling into the domestic affairs of Maltese Hispania. i sincerely hope that renegades' use of those claims is a mere bluff for I doubt that Crayter Republic, weaken after the war with Gallia, would want another war with Malta, especially Basilica fleet still being located in check in Coronado. I assume, the Kingdom of Bretonia would also be displeased with our hostilities. But this is a pessimistic scenario and I hope that the renegades do not really have your support. In this regard, the Crayter Republic can show us good will and prove to be distanced from our domestic affairs by:

1. officially condemning or distancing from the Maltese renegades of "Republic of Malta"
   
2. allowing our strike fleet to carry out local targeted deconstruction of any modular facilities located in Tau 44. in this case the Government of the Maltese Unitary Republic of Hispania pledges to respect the sovereignty of the Crayter Republic over any objects in Tau 44 system and refrain from dealing any damage to it. Any unforeseen collateral damage is to be compensated by the Government of the Maltese Unitary Republic of Hispania.
   
3. Any settlements of Maltese renegades on planet Borneo are not considered part of Maltese patrimony and hence are subject to Crayterian annexation, we will not mind it. However, we do mind the termination of their existence, regardless of the method employed.
   

I will be awaiting your reply, hoping for wisdom and respect for domestic matters of the both parties. The suggested provisions are not adamant and are subject to discussion.

Respetuosamente,
Hernan Luis Escudero Grijalva
Consul of the Senate of the Maltese Unitary Republic of Hispania
