The Crayter Republic too abstains from commenting on the Vespucci operation. Although the defense minister talks about how Insurgents prefer to turn themselves in to us, rather than taken as a captive of Liberty.
The Republics' mission has always been peace in the Taus. Liberty would have drained Planet Harris completely and looked deeper into the sector to suckle another victim. Which it has no place in. Though any proposition to make an alliance to subdue Libertys encroachments will have to be taken up with the Ministry of foreign affairs, I do not see Liberty making another attempt to grab what is not theirs in the Taus. They have failed already.
The Republic is open to come to the table to talk more about the alliance.
In service to the Republic
