The Imperial  Magistrate to the NUS Palo Mori de Ubaldini acknowledges the note from Minister  Riviera.

He replies that the Empire has no wish or desire to turn the peace and prosperity of the Rio De La Plata into a war zone.  The Empire will not emplace mines of Montivideo nor hold manuvers in the Estuary.  The only possible way that the current war in East Africa could spread to the Atlantic is if the New Swiss return to their historic tactics of Piracy.
