*The recent battle in the [[Reorte]] system has caused [[Sirius Corporation]] to question the terms of its partnership with the [[Alliance]]. The [[Alliance Tribune]]'s political correspondent [[Vanya Driscoll]] reported: "When Sirius Corporation megaships arrived in four Allied systems, it's fair to assume they anticipated a degree of public resistance. But being directly attacked by the Reorte Mining Coalition clearly wasn't part of their risk assessment. [[Li Yong-Rui]] has urgently sought assurances from the Alliance that such conflicts will not happen again. The megacorp's CEO claimed that he has a duty to protect his employees from aggression by their own clients. In response, [[Alliance Prime Minister|Prime Minister]] [[Edmund Mahon]] personally guaranteed that this unfortunate incident was a one-off, stressing that Sirius personnel have been welcomed in the [[Alioth]], Arimpox and Di Jian systems. He added that the [[Alliance Defence Force]] is working closely with Admiral Nikolas Glass, the [[Sirius Navy]]'s representative. But others in the [[Alliance Assembly|Assembly]] are now openly questioning the wisdom of the [[Alliance-Sirius strategic defence pact|strategic defence pact]]. Although [[Councillor]] [[Nakato Kaine]]'s opposition to Mahon is often viewed as predictable, more members now agree with her that many Allied factions will reject the assertion that Sirius Corporation is an ally to be trusted."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/620257ea09967d14d868f435 GalNet: Concerns Raised over Alliance-Sirius Pact]</ref>

*The [[Alliance]], [[Empire]] and [[Federation]] have accepted the [[Paul Baumann|Baumann Report's]] recommendation to permanently shut down [[Aegis]]. The independent inquiry's findings on the organisation's failings will result in Aegis being immediately shut down. However, Chief Administrator [[Carter Armstrong]] has cautioned that "full demobilisation of staff, ships and resources might take several months". [[Senator]] [[Denton Patreus]] has successfully obtained senatorial approval for an increased military budget, to allow the [[Imperial Navy]] to directly take on the role played by Aegis. [[Admiral of the Fleet|Fleet Admiral]] [[Tayo Maikori]] likewise confirmed that the [[Federal Congress]] has ordered the creation of a new naval strike force. On his own authority he has also commissioned an investigation into [[Salvation]], following [[Ram Tah]]'s testimony regarding the nature of the [[anti-xeno superweapon]]. Admiral Nikolas Glass, who was recently appointed to the [[Council of Admirals]], stated that the [[Alliance Defence Force]] and [[Sirius Navy]] will work in conjunction to fulfil Aegis's purpose. Xenological research laboratories set up by Professor [[Alba Tesreau]] will now transfer their work to specialist departments in the [[Holloway Bioscience Institute]], [[Imperial Science Academy]] and [[Olympus Village University]]. In 3304 the [[Thargoid]]s made targeted strikes against Aegis's labs, but all three institutions have made assurances that the new locations will have the highest security.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61e6ba29f6b3cd47d1758763 GalNet: Superpowers Plan to Replace Aegis]</ref>

*A new member has been appointed to the [[Council of Admirals]] to represent [[Sirius Corporation]] as the [[Alliance]]'s strategic defence partner. Political correspondent [[Vanya Driscoll]] reported for The [[Alliance Tribune]]: "There are always six seats on the Council of Admirals, taken by senior military commanders from the largest regional fleets. Not only is this the first time that a seventh position has been created, it's also the first to come from outside the Alliance. The new addition is Admiral Nikolas Glass, a highly decorated officer with the [[Sirius Navy]]. His new role is to coordinate the Alliance's anti-[[Thargoid]] operations, which from now on will be directly supported by Sirius Corporation. [[Alliance Prime Minister|Prime Minister]] [[Edmund Mahon]] and [[Admiral of the Fleet|Fleet Admiral]] [[Hayley Sorokin]] both endorsed this development as a way of strengthening the [[Alliance Defence Force]], which lacks the might of the [[Federal Navy|Federal]] or [[Imperial Navy]]. Many member systems have demanded increased protection against the Thargoid threat, so this news is likely to be well received. As expected, [[Councillor]] [[Nakato Kaine]] opposed the defence pact, with Admiral [[George Varma]] also critical of 'merging commercial interests with military matters'. Deputy Prime Minister [[Angela Corcoran]] also admitted that she abstained during the recent joint vote, but chose not to elaborate on her reasons. So it seems that the [[Alliance Assembly|Assembly]] is not fully confident about this union with Sirius Corporation."<ref name="Sirius ADF">[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/61dbf8af8471456cbe5cbe02 GalNet: Sirius Navy Unites with Alliance Defence Force]</ref>
