*Former President [[Jasmina Halsey]] has joined the [[Federal Diplomatic Corps]] to become an ambassador to the [[Alliance]]. In recent years Halsey served as an advisor to [[Edmund Mahon|Prime Minister Mahon]], but returned to the [[Federation]] in January to stand as a witness in the Starship One trial. She was a guest of Shadow President [[Felicia Winters]] at the [[Galactic Summit]], and both were evacuated back to [[Mars]] when it was cancelled. At a press conference, Ambassador Halsey said: "Being at the conference reminded me that the political arena is where I belong. My new responsibilities allow me to continue serving the Federation while making use of my experience within the Alliance, and hopefully build stronger bridges between the two." [[Elijah Beck]], head of the [[Alliance Office of Diplomatic Relations]], sent this message: "Jasmina's level-headed advice has calmed many tense political situations. This is the ideal role for a diplomat of her calibre, and I look forward to working with her again." In related news, the Federal Diplomatic Corps confirmed that Ambassador [[Jordan Rochester]] had been recalled from duty to be reassigned. Most of the [[Empire]] and Federation's embassies in each other's space have been closed since November 3306.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/605dd98c80c2570d06280658 GalNet: Jasmina Halsey Becomes Federal Ambassador]</ref> | |||

*Former [[Core Dynamics]] CEO [[Jupiter Rochester]] has received a summary judgement for multiple crimes against the [[Federation]]. The [[Federal Justice Department]] gave this statement: "The facts in the case of Jupiter Rochester are self-evident. His principal role regarding Starship One and [[Jupiter Division]] make him guilty of treason, mass murder and many other crimes. He will serve a solitary life sentence in a maximum security prison." [[Milandu Okoro]] of the [[Federal Attorney's Office]] expressed surprise: "It is highly unusual for the FJD not to litigate such a major case, considering we don't know the full extent of Rochester and [[Lucas Vincent|Fleet Admiral Vincent's]] conspiracies. Unfortunately, our request to open a full investigation has been denied." [[Shadow President|Shadow Vice President]] [[Isolde Rochester]] has reiterated that [[Rochester family|her family]] were not involved with her eldest son's clandestine activities. Core Dynamics is continuing to rebuild after several departments separated to form Jupiter Division. [[Owen McKenna]], the new CEO, has vowed to purge the company of all his predecessor's loyalists. Despite Rochester's failure to build a powerbase in the [[HIP 54530]] system, his manifesto of placing the Federation under direct corporate rule has received praise in some regions. A corporatist movement, founded by commercial networks and civil groups, is gradually gaining popularity.<ref name="Jupiter Sentenced" /> | *Former [[Core Dynamics]] CEO [[Jupiter Rochester]] has received a summary judgement for multiple crimes against the [[Federation]].
