Perhaps the Zhodani would not let a full Imperial squadron participate.
However, I can not believe that I am the only one who read the adventure
supplied with the old Zhodani Alien Module.  In that, Core expeditions
were heavily influenced by "visions" which some suitably psionically
gifted Zhodani had received, these "visions" being effectively messages
from the Ancients.  One of these "visions" specifically showed humans,
i.e. Imperial type humans.  So a Zhodani noble went and kidnapped a few
Imperials to bring along.  The "vision" did not show the humans as
prisoners - in fact, it showed them having a significant role in the
expedition.  Translation into game terms: the PC's are grabbed and
taken along, and allowed as much freedom as possible.
