Biography[edit]
Presidential inauguration[edit]
Elected on January 8, 2553,[2] she gave an inaugural speech promising that humanity would rebuild and reclaim its rightful place in the universe.
| “ | Humanity can now breathe again.
The Covenant has finally been driven back. The cost in lives - our troops and our citizens - has been enormous. But freedom never comes cheaply, and now, we rebuild. I promise this to every man, woman and child on Earth and in its colonies. While we will continue to strive for a peaceful coexistence with other species, humanity will never again allow itself to be the victim of aggression. This is the moment we start to reclaim our rightful place in the universe. |

Foreign relations[edit]
By October of 2556, President Charet and other UEG bureaucrats were embroiled in a political imbroglio surrounding the alliance with the Swords of Sanghelios. Charet had to work against not only the majority of the rest of the UEG in this regard, but also had to deal with meddling from ONI that risked the fragile peace.[3]
New Phoenix Rebirth Ceremony[edit]
On March 24, 2558, Dr. Charet spoke at a ceremony commemorating the reopening of New Phoenix, eight months after the city was attacked and quarantined.[4]
| “ | Eight months ago when the New Phoenix event occurred, we did not know what to think, or how to react.
After decades of war, we could have grown used to such terrors as these. Instead we refuse ourselves that callousness. We pause and acknowledge what we have lost. We remind ourselves of what it is we continue to live for. And that is our strength as a people. |
