Subject: Cease and Desist Order

Dear United Nations and the Sino-Russian Coalition,

I, C.J. Kovse, Chairwoman of the Lunar Development Consortium and representative of the Covse Engineering Group, write this letter on behalf of the Lunar Development Consortium.

We hereby issue a Cease and Desist order concerning the following matters:

1. **Immediate Withdrawal of Military Forces**: We demand the immediate removal of all Earth-based military forces and equipment from the Moon and Lunar space, including the L4 and L5 Lagrange points, to a distance of 184,000 kilometers.

2. **Ownership of Industrial Installations**: All industrial and manufacturing installations and infrastructure on the Moon are now the property of the Lunar Development Consortium.

3. **Repatriation of Earth Citizens**: All Earth citizens wishing to emigrate back to Earth will be afforded free passage to the Earth Space Station within the next 30 solar days.

4. **Freezing of Assets**: All assets of Earth-based institutions in Lunar banking institutions will be frozen to reimburse Lunar Settlements and Industries as a result of the Sino-Russian conflict.

5. **Interim Government**: The Lunar Development Consortium will act as a provisional interim government until such time as a democratic government can be formed and free elections be held.

6. **Non-Interference**: Any attempts from any Earth governments or agencies to interfere with Lunar independence and the terms of this declaration will be dealt with swiftly with military force. The Consortium cannot be held responsible for the loss of life and equipment used by Terrestrial aggressive action.

We trust that you will take this matter seriously. We reserve the right to take any legal and military action necessary to protect our interests.

Yours sincerely,

C.J. Kovse
Chairwoman, Lunar Development Consortium
