"Fellow senators,

During the last four weeks the Imperial Council of the Veolian Commonwealth has discussed the events, reaction and current situation of the Mandalorian aggression. After these four weeks, the six great houses have reached consensus on the topic.

In a few hours, my emperor will address the Veolian Commonwealth and all citizens of the Union to inform them of our position. I have been authorized to inform you of the consensus that has been reached before this official announcement, to allow your governments time to prepare a response.


The Imperial Council has reached the following consensus: The Veolian Commonwealth will take all measures necessary to defend the Union to ensure the survival of both the Union and the Veolian Commonwealth itself.

We have tried to offer our military aid to those nearest to the threat, but they deem our assistance unnecessary. Therefore, we have begun preparing our fleets for deployment, and will deploy our fleets where they are deemed necessary. In this, we shall take the requests of the Ministry of Defence under advisement to determine the optimal deployment.

If the actions of other Union members negatively influence the security and integrity of the Union and its citizens, we will take those actions we deem necessary, up to and including the execution of police actions in foreign territory.


Thank you."
