DDS begin long-term peace talks with Utrek

A joint DDS/UNP team of negotiators has met a Utrek team at a secret location in the Raegris Central District. The DDS are hoping they can gain a lasting peace with the Utrek which will allow the DDS to ensure the sovereignty of it's allies along the border with the Utrek such as the Raegris and Remedians. It will also allow the DDS to reduce it's forces in Remedian space and redeploy them elsewhere.

For their part the Utrek are busy with the Mantae. Their bloody war with the mysterious aliens seems to have stabilised but only by the Utrek dedicating their attention to the fight. Both sides, for the moment anyway, will be content with a lasting peace.
