GalNet: New Republic Officially Recognizes PDB As A Crimimal Organization

This morning in her speech to Zoquala people, General Maite Snider officially declared:"In these times when Federation is ran by wannabe police state warmongers, it is us independent nations to start doing something with it. Proactive Detection Bureau is an illegal organization working under perverted sense of righteousness with no respect to Federal Constitution. Zachary Hudson might have taken your liberty, but he shall never take your lives. Therefore, effective now, New Republic of Draguan Nu openly declares that any member of Proactive Directory Bureau found in New Republican and Winters-affiliated space will be arrested, or eliminated down should situation demand it. We never asked for this, but we are ready to restore Federation as beacon of liberty. Removal of Hudsonists from Federal government would be the best thing to happen, if you want to know my sincere opinion."
The overall diplomatic relationship between Hudson-Archer cabinet and New Republic reached a new rock bottom. In response to this message Federation closed their embassy in Zoquala, only to be responded with New Republic closing the official diplomatic channel. Analytics point out this is similar situation to early days of the War for Lugh in which cabinet of then-President Jasmine Halsey met with armed opposition that led into open conflict - with Federation admitting defeat despite military advantage.
At the same time New Republic noted that they are making negotiations with their Federal and Independent allies in order to prepare for possible military intervention, although given the distance from Sol and rather negative response to decisions in regard to surveillance within Federal systems in the area the Federal Navy strike against Draguan Nu is very unlikely and would not gain much support even from Federation-affiliated systems. In the most extreme variant, perhaps even joining New Republic in fight against Hudson-affiliated Federal Navy.
