Subj: Operation Free Haven
Jolan Tru,
The ongoing situation regarding the Tri’vokil Free-State has pressed both Starfleet Command and RRF Command to formalize an operation. Please be aware that the nature of this operation will change as more information is revealed by RRF and Starfleet personnel.
Background
A diplomatic overture within the Tri’vokil Free-State resulted in a chilling discovery. The ruling government of the Tri’vokil Free State, in 2409, formally requested elements of the Ancient Regime (The Romulan Star Empire) to crush significant unrest at the world. Though information is forthcoming, it is believed the Praetor used their intervention to secure stability on the world.
While the Praetor appears to be cooperating with the Romulan Republic and United Federation of Planets; his decisions have resulted in unrest. The so called United Assembly of Tri’vokil is poised to secure power over the world. The Praetor, at least during the initial operation, seemed forthcoming. Starfleet Intelligence and RRF Intelligence jointly believe he will not be a threat.
What is of concern, though, is the information he afforded. Half of the world’s defensive flottila has gone missing in the neighboring flotilla. Additionally, reports are now indicating that several civilian installations in control of the Free State have lost contact. Lastly, the involvement of Star Empire remnants during the Revolution mean their involvement is plausible.
Operational Overview
Operation Free Haven’s objective is to ensure the self determination and rights of the Tri’vokil Free-State are maintained. It shall also ensure its citizens are protected. This will require a multi-fronted approach: Diplomatic Endeavors, Military Maneuvers, and Deep Space investigation.
Objectives
-
Protection of the rights of Tri’vokil, in particular its right to self determination now that it has opened contact with the Galactic Community.
-
The Investigation of missing planetary defense forces, per recent reports (the details will be listed below)
-
Formal diplomatic resolution to ongoing civil unrest on Tri’vokil.
-
Investigation of possible influence by Star Empire remants.
Supplementary Information
RRF Command has authorized assistance to the 38th Fleet in these endeavors. Elements of the 12th and 17th Flotillas are on operational stand-by within the region.
Closing Sentiments
Close collaboration between Starfleet and the RRF will be essential to ensure objectives are achieved. Additionally, involved officers should be aware of the potential for conflict against the Ancient Regime. They are uncompromising and dangerous. Any questions may be directed towards me.
Glory to the Republic.
Long live the Federation.
