GalNet: New Republic Bans Core Dynamics Entirely
02 Feb 2021Rho Tefnutet
Following the main today's news, New Republic of Draguan Nu's response was swift and without precedence given already poor relations with Federation. "Traces that Federal Agent activity and Core Dynamics hostile takeover over Lakon inside our home system would be damning enough, as both violated heavily our non-intervention policies and our self-governance - as, unlike in Federation, it is the corporations that respond to the government and not vice-versa. However, with traces that Core Dynamics could also be involved into failed assassination attempt on former President Halsey, we extend the ban onto Core Dynamics as a firm in its entirety, meaning that Core Dynamics' imports will be withheld in Draguan Nu until further notice."
Despite the initial agreement between Federal and New Republican administrations, Reightler Dock withdrew the offer to release people involved into hostile takeover of Lakon prior the galactic summit. However, given the circumstances and weight of the accusations, NR-Sec also refused to release the subjects, replying to the Federal objections that criminals within Draguan Nu must be courted on basis of New Republican's law. Given no existence of de facto Federal Embassy on Reightler Dock, all the queries is possible only through separate Sirius Corporation contact lines, as well as through respective Federation-affiliated factions allied to current government of Draguan Nu.
General Snider so far refused to answer any questions in regard to possible connections between Federal Agents, Core Dynamics and almost forgotten NMLA terrorist group, as suspected by some theorists and more anti-Federation supporters in Draguan Nu. It should be noted that criminal investigation of NR-Sec and Interpol in regard to Core Dynamics is still in progress, therefore it is a likely reason of authorities not sharing any sort of information that could negatively influence said investigation.
The only bright side is that the newest revelation did not cause any bigger protest among the population of Reightler Dock, aside of a small groups protesting under former Federal Embassy. Some voices pointed out that New Republic managed to nationalize all the Core Dynamic assets within Draguan Nu, what would be likely impossible within Federation.
