Privet comrade Alferova.
I would like to speak with you personally, but I need to escort the vessel with the necessary materials for our allies and hold a couple of diplomatic meetings. Of course, we can talk later, but the events in New Moscow make me act quickly.
I know you are aware of the permission from Comrade Novikov about the possible return of dissidents. I do not know the whole story of why you are here but I have always trusted you and I think that I did not limit you in your decisions in the station life and our people.
But in approval from Comrade Novikov he separately mentioned your brother and that he could return to the Coalition.
Of course, this does not mean that he can immediately return to New Moscow, but I think he will be able to live quietly at our station, well, and we could talk about further opportunities after meeting or talking with him.
I will be waiting for your answer about this possibility, take your time family is important and I will understand if you need some time.

Gregor,
We have been working together for quite a long time already to not use those formalities, unless you wish otherwise. Moreover, the topic of your message is something, that is not related that much to business affairs, but rather a personal one.
You see, when the topic of my brother has been brought last time - I was put under arrest and was forced to deal with this psychomaniac Keller, who wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty by applying physical violence during interrogations against people who even haven't been claimed to be guilty. As it happens from time to time in Coalition, he took the place, which wasn't suitable for him. Luckily for me, your beloved comrade Novikov or whoever was running things at SCEC back to then, realised, that Keller is just ruining potential intelligence material and interfered, getting me out of his hands and putting me here. Since then, I don't believe any Coalition high-ranked individual, I don't trust to anyone from Commissariat and I've decided to stay here, aboard Rostok, to keep myself away from their hands.
I do trust you though, we have been through too much for it to be in other way. Yes, I've been told, that Keller acted on his own accord, I've heard the news that Keller is disappeared, but is there a chance that there won't be another such individual who will send armed operatives in my living quarters? I don't want to go through it all again.
Moreover, I'm not even sure how I'm supposed to help you. I still have no single idea, why my brother has been deemed to be the traitor of the Motherland and when I've tried to ask, I've got answer that this information is highly classified. Probably, you will need to call Novikov again and ask him.
Give me guarantees and more information on how I'm supposed to help you and I will see, what I can do.

I did not want my message to sound like I want buy something and unduly diplomatic, but perhaps the constant necessity to be such when I communicate with a person at long-range showed my prof deformation.
First of all, I thought that you know why he was expelled from the Coalition or why he left, but this means that I will have to try to find all of the official archives, maybe there will be something that will give an understanding of the whole situation.
Unfortunately, I have no acquaintances who could find out all in full, so I will have to expect a response from Novikov or SCEC archives.
