As far as I'm aware, no communications were received by The Democratic Order prior to being attacked. That said, I'm not sure if other members of TDO Government were contacted, I sure wasn't. No authorisation for Gitami's spy operation was given; there would have been no reason why I as Minister of Defense would feel compelled for any of our members to commit a breach of our neutrality. Gitami was acting alone in his desire to perform the operation.
I find it wholly unfortunate that SPATR felt the need to declare war on us before allowing us to conduct an investigation into this incident. I have had to perform a few such investigations, and they have, for the most part, satisfied both parties involved. No shots needed to have been fired over this incident, it would have been cleaned up without it. That said, I can also understand SPATR's decision, even though I am very much against it.
Nevertheless, this incident has been dealt with, Gitami was removed from TDO, and a white peace agreed.
