The Klingons bombard Tezwa, and subsequently invade the planet. In an attempt to keep the Federation's earlier involvement with the planet secret, Federation President Min Zife orders Captain Jean-Luc Picard to conquer Tezwa before the Klingons.

This effort is led by Ross, Nechayev and Nakamura, who force the issue at gunpoint. Zife's subsequent resignation speech is broadcast to the Federation at large. Afterwards, and unbeknownst to the others, Ross is forced by Section 31 to allow Zife and his aides to be assassinated. (TNG novel: A Time to Heal)
