Cake maybe later.
An apology might be a "start" but one expects the words of the Council following events at Colelie might ring false with a great many Federation citizens unless some kind of transparent inquiry is made into who gave the order for the Republic's unilateral assault on its ally and any subsequent disciplinary action expedited - under tribal law.
Or to put it another way: the same kind of thing the Republic was demanding from the Federation a few weeks ago with the only difference being the respect for a sovereign entity to manage its own house within the boundaries of its own laws.

Except that, for the several million individuals who comprise the families and loved ones of those killed by Republic fleet actions in Colelie and those destroyed by Elder Fleet actions in Yulai five years ago, that water you're alluding to has a decidedly crimson hue.
And few people enjoy crossing a river of blood to interact with those who label themselves 'friends', bridge or no.

Granted, I'm no legal expert, but so far I haven't heard anything that indicates this is legal. That many people don't seem to see this as a problem or even a matter that is worth discussing bothers me more than the extradition itself.
Extradition is the transfer of a suspect of criminal between sovereign jurisdictions based on treaty agreements alone.
When extradition is compelled by law it is known more generally by the term rendition and is, by its nature, legal.
Extra-ordinary rendition is the acquisition and extra-judicial transfer of an individual from one sovereign state to another.
Admittedly it's not entirely clear from the press release alone whether either the Caille District Court or any higher judicial authority signed off on Broteau's transfer to Republic jurisdiction. However, given the overexposed nature of the trial I find it hard to believe that something so under the microscope of public scrutiny would be anything but 'by the book'.
