I appreciate the prompt response to our problem, Alex. I was hoping you'd overhear the chatter and volunteer your time and resources.
The embargo of the UKMG will continue until they've come to justice in our courts; which might take a 'little' longer than expected if I have my way. I want the refusal of their niobium to be felt...thoroughly. You have the thanks of the Rheinland Military for continuing the commerce and way of life we've worked so hard for. You will be compensated for your time and effort, my friend. I'll be in touch soon. Safe travels to you and yours.
Hiltraud.

Your admission is one of guilt. I do, however, appreciate the kinder tone of your transmission compared to that of your superior. The UKMG is being investigated as to how long you've been taking diamonds from under our noses. You are also being sued for infringing upon Daumann's mining rights and for any profit garnered from the diamonds mined.
All trade with your organization will cease as of today. Your vessels will be turned away from our docking ports, so i'd advise you not even try. There will be no more need of your niobium until this little mess is sorted out. Our court systems are little backed up at the moment so it might be a while before you come before our courts on Planet New Berlin. Until that day, any UKMG vessel that enters Rheinland space will power down their weapons systems and be escorted by a wing of RM wraths.
