However, our paths to it diverge: our interest lies solely in that of the WPR, whether it choses to resume the Grovesnore deal or not. We will suggest, and support, their return to the table only if we see it as the best move for them. 

This is the reason we had to react with a precautional move to the announcement of your exercises: but if what you say it is true, that you have no hostile intention on the local and international comrades there, you will not have to worry of us. 

To speak more directly, if you strike RIM with your Navy and Air Force we will not consider it an hostile move and thus will not react against your crafts. It would be a matter between you and the Empire. Should you send ground troops, that would be a deal-breaker though. 

While we can enjoy a fresh diplomatic start, I'm afraid your relationship with Bruuma is beyond savatage. And as our ally, we must share their concerns and move jointly. So, our forces will remain mobilized for the duration of the exercises, but we'll guarantee no hostility as long as the WPR and our forces are left alone".

"As you know, Sedunn wants a solution that avoids a second Great War. For as long as the RIM remains a fighting force in Reizen, more and more nations with opposing ideologies will be dragged in. It would be a war with no winners, only losers.

In the spirit of transparency, I should note that there are plans to deploy ground forces against the RIM. This would only happen if it is directly and officially accepted by all the Grovne Signatories and if it would help deal a swift and critical blow to the RIM."
