It has come to our attention that with the end of war, New London Gate Construction Site was repossessed. Since Leeds was lost by Bretonia and fell into the hands of Gallia, and more specifically EFL, who managed to construct the site and hack Ageira Jump Gate controls and redirect the connection after years of study, it might hold Ageira Technologies intellectual property that must remain secret and in Ageira's possession. Ageira Innovations has contacted us and informed that Bretonia Government has placed station under SIS ownership and no longer has ability to transfer it over to Ageira. We are hereby requesting that Bretonia Government or SIS, whoever is actually above in jurisdiction on such matters, hand over the station to Ageira Technologies immediately.
Mister President, it has been far too long since we have received word from you. I hope all is well sir, I hope to see you when you come to New London next, Liberty is quite popular as of late for her unwavering support in our darkest hours and there are many who wish to convey their respects to you.
So you may now have some idea of my surprise. Ageira was offered the station as a partial payment for work on our rather damaged infrastructure, only to inform us that it was not worth nearly as much as we thought it was. Yet now I have the President of the Republic of Liberty demanding I turn the station over to Ageira. Mister President, our intent was never to cause disrespect nor offence to your house sir, never would we desire to do that. To that end sir we're willing to allow Ageira engineers to join the investigation team in order to safeguard any intellectual property of Ageira. Captured EFL technology must be the joint property of both governments, however, as military personnel from both nations died to secure it. After all, Ageira does not have sole claim over technology captured by both nations.
I hope you will talk this proposal over with your cabinet mister president, we appreciate the level of security Ageira has invested into her property, but EFL property is not theirs to claim.

President Powell:
While we acknowledge the receipt of your request, we are unable to allow any access at this time for security reasons.
I have been placed in charge of security at the New London Gate Construction Site by the Director. The Secret Intelligence Service, at the request of Her Majesty’s Government, has sealed the site off as we attempt to find out just what exactly is on the station. We have absolutely no indication of any Ageira Intellectual Property or physical property being held on the station at this time. We are in absolutely no position to grant access to this station to anyone until we are able to safeguard the technology and property of Her Majesty’s Government located on the station. At this time, our only goal has to be the securing of the station and assessing the potential damage that can be done to our infrastructure based on the research undertaken here.
Additionally, this station is located in Bretonian Space, taken by Bretonian Forces, and was made to manipulate access into deeper parts of Bretonian Space. Ageira has absolutely no right to remove assets from this station, just as the EFL has absolutely no right to remove assets from this station. We will investigate the contents of this station and give a full and complete inventory to Her Majesty’s Government, who will make the ultimate decision concerning any disclosures.
I wish all the best to you and all of the citizens of Liberty who stood by us in our time of greatest need.
