New Arit has finally dissolved its relationship with the DDS following 2 days of meetings with the DDS. The break-up is being seen as very amicable with Aritan troops remaining in the New DDS Army in a reserve role until the end of the war and the DDS retaining the ability to refuel and repair ships in Aritan space. A DDS listening station that monitors traffic in the direction of the ABBOs will also be kept active for at least 5 years. All sensitive DDS technology will be removed from New Arit by a DDS Engineering team over the next few weeks.
In return the DDS are offloading 4 Kalahati Tuuls to the Aritans, thought to be the last in the DDS' reserve stock of the ex-Utrekian cruisers (except for the ones currently in DDS service). The ships are unpowered and will have to be towed to Aritan space though it is likely they will be towed to Dino-Land for updates and refurbishment before being given to the Aritans.
