A SHORT MESSAGE WAS RELEASED BY THE SERPENT THRONE:
To Emperor Alexios I Komnenus and Kaiser Friedrich Wilhelm Viktor Albrecht von Preußen:

In light of your recent military measures, Russia would remind you both of our rightful claims to Moscow, as well as to warn against plans of Scandinavia. Any action by your militaries into Sweden, Norway, or Finland shall be taken as an affront to the throne of Russia. That is all.
General Annenkov, First Proprietor of the Rus.

Yeah, not very good for some of us
