We signed a defensive alliance with Bulgaria 2 years ago, how can that pose a threat to Bulgaria? Also, we are not waging a war of aggression towards our neighbour, another show of "Teutonis Hipocraticus", we came to the defence of Korea independence when Japan invaded them out of the blue, so we declared war to Japan after we tried to use diplomacy to avoid bloodshed, after that Germany declared on Russia over the basis that we were "against the independence of Japan", so Germany is trying to use our casus belli against us, and yet call us aggressors while they are doing the same thing.

A clear fault of Germany foreign politics. Germany alone has just show the world that they are a country that they lack the honour. They don't care for Bulgaria, they never did....

...just remember the Congress of Berlin of 1878, were Russia was fighting the Ottoman Empire to liberate Bulgaria. Otto von Bismarck, Chancellor of Germany at that time, did everything he could to avoid a "Big Bulgaria". Now they come with promises of being allies of Bulgaria, when they were the first ones to try to weaken it!

Germany, a country who accuses everyone of being warmongers while having the biggest and most advanced standing army in the planet.

The only thing Germany did was to attack our Latin, showing that you can't refute the rest of our points. All of our points are proven with facts while you act as being the "Owner of the Truth" without real factual support.

You are trying to convince the world or just yourself about the lies you preach? Now Germany is a peace-loving country, right? Claimed that Russia wanted to destroy Balkans balance, while it was Russian lack of intervention in 1901 that created the whole mess the Balkans are now.

In stead of trying to balance it, Germany has just created more mess, putting Slavic brothers against each other.
 
Germany is not doing the same thing. Russia is protecting the independence of a sovereign state, independence which was signed by Japan after the Sino-Japanese war. Kaiser Wilhelm is not protecting the independence of Japan, as it was not threatened in any way by Russian actions, but is instead trying to find an excuse to justify the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Germans and Russians, when they have no justification at all.

Thank you, French embassador, for that picture in which I save Germany from falling down the cliff. I would not have gone quite as far as claiming that, as there are many more great men like me who are working together to save Germany, but the gesture is certainly appreciated.

We wish to remind Bulgaria, that two years ago they signed the following treaty with Russia.



We were prepared to reduce tariffs with Russia to 0, we were prepared to only buy Russian material. But you never supported us in our defensive war with Greece, you didn't invest in us you didn't send us officers or weapons so we looked for other options. Germany presented us with one.

As for Germany not caring about us. Russia is again being hypocritical, they never cared about us either. Russia's only interest in the Balkans is one city,Constantinople, the city of the world's desire. At the conference of Berlinthe only reason Russia wanted a big Bulgaria only because it viewed Bulgaria as a puppet state and that big Bulgaria got them closer to Constantinople. Russia forgot about us, and now they are further then ever from Constantinople.

Russia has noone but itself to blame for the hostility it experiences. It turns potential friends into enemies, by harassing them with threats, accusations and insults. We have first hand experience of Russian diplomacy, and can truthfully state that it amounts to nothing more than a collection of threats. The Russian Empire deserves all that is coming to it, and the German Empire has our full diplomatic support for their war.​
 
We wish to remind Bulgaria, that the brief War between our two nations was caused by a sadening misunderstanding, not by a countries aggression and we do not see why Greeks should be blamed more then Bulgarians.
The mistake made was the same on both sides, but luckily our Nations were able to solve that together.
The Greek Kingdom gives its consent to the French point of view.

Bulgaria, tariffs were lowered, true, and we did sent economic aid to increase both your industry and infrastructure, you can clearly check it from our economic records that said amount of money was sent to Bulgaria, but what Bulgarian businessmen or politicians made with that is above our decision, all the time we treated you as a sovereign nation when Germany above any other nation called you our puppet.
Due to the fragile peace that was around Balkans at the time we decided to postpone the military aid to both Bulgaria, and Serbia, as a show of peace nature towards both Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire.
With the war of Greece, in stead of just declaring war on Greece we used diplomacy so they made peace with Bulgaria, we saved thousand of Bulgarian lives, and yet asked nothing for it.
If, we wanted Constantinople so much as Bulgaria states. then why we should ever created a free state between such city and us? No, no Bulgaria, Russia aim is peace in the world, balance of power among all nation as to avoid wars. Nations like Germany are the ones who want to create a new world were only their point of view. The Germans were in fact the nation that refereed to you as our puppet more than anyone via Russo-German embassy talks. They don't look as you as an ally but as their dog.

And to Sweden, a nation who failed in their attempt to fund rebels in our Empire and in their wake to find a scapegoat this turned out:

The recent leak to the press about Sweden's activities in Russian Finland was plugged when it was found the Prime Minister's Brother who was doing it. Although they said he was fired and sent home, reports of him being brutally beaten and thrown into jail have circulated much to the dismay of the Swedish Government.

Swedish justice? Not even a fair trail was given to him, just brutally beaten and thrown to jail. Very civilized from you.
 
In Sweden and in Norway, we enjoy the privilege of a free press media. This allows us all the freedom to say as we will, and is only impeached upon when matters of national security are at hand.

It is clear that these rumours are nothing more than that. One must remember that the newspapers are making an effort to sell, as well as to inform, and so from time to time may leap on a story without gaining a proper understanding of it first.

We do understand though, if such things as freedom of the press are confusing to the Russian Empire, as alien ideas and customs are often hard to comprehend. We do not understand however, the Russian Empire not comprehending the idea of the brutal beating of a political opponent.​

The struggle Sweden is doing to say something barely logical is of gargantuan proportions! They claim to have the freedom to say whatever they want, yet afterwards they say not all the times. Then they say their newspapers only publish yellow press stories to gain more sells, thus saying they aren't a reliable source of information, and finally accuse Russia of not understanding the concept of free press stating that is a foreign custom, as if free press was something people have to understand from Sweden.

In the meantime, the only thing, the people of Sweden believes is that the brother of the Prime Minister has been physically beaten and put to jail without a proper trail. The government of Sweden didn't make any official declaration about it for months, implying that is something they wish to hide to the public to keep an image of civilized country. They didn't accepted or rebuked the whole fact.

Sweden, a country were things are meant to be one way, but they can be done in another way.

Why Germany? Because we stood up in defence of the weak while you supported the annexation of Korea by Japan while defending the liberation of Poland, composed solely from Russian lands and never with German ones? Why Germany thinks Japan has the right to make Korea their colony? Or even annex it? Please...explain the world, why?
 
OOC: (I know I'm not in 1900 but I feel compelled to say this)

To be fair, he didn't know it was OOC as you didn't label it as such, as most other people are doing in this thread.
 
The Swedish Government finds ourselves confused. We have no idea of how or why a 'trail' would be used in a legal process. Perhaps the Tsar would kindly explain it to us?​

We agree with the Greeks and apologize for speaking hastily. However we wish to ask the Greeks if the Russians encouraged them to agree to peace with us because they did not even talk to us about it.

Could you please send us those economic records? How do you know it was Bulgarian bureaucrats and not Russians? Could you please tell us next time you decide to withhold something that you agreed to give? Although we seriously doubt Russian aid would help in anything other then running from Germans. You certainly did not encourage us to make peace with Greece, we did it entirely with on our own. The reason you didn't annex Bulgaria was because you have absolutely no claim to the area and you viewed our land as your own anyway. We find it odd that Russia is lecturing others on their justice systems when Russia's people are starving and their justice system practically non-existent, of course there is a reason for this, if Russia had a proper justice system the Tsar would be jailed for neglecting his people.

OOC: Roundy's IC is coulored...

The Swedish government always find itself confused. They state they want to trade with Finland knowing is a region of the Russian Empire, in stead of properly trading with the Russian Empire, in the same way Russia would trade just with Norway without asking the government of Sweden first, then suddenly it's government officials are caught trying to smuggle weapons and establish a resistance inside Finland, finally the brother of the Prime Minister ends physically beaten and locked up in a prison.

And all the Swedish government can say is, "We are confused"

Let's see, does Sweden thinks Japan has the right to invade and make Korea a colony of it's Empire, if yes, why?
 
OOC: When u post OOC u have to put OOC: blabla if not everyone will think is IC, maybe he was in a hurry and couldn't colour it, or in a smartphone without the option to. Anyway ooc is what IRC is for, so enough of it.

The economic records are free to be seen by everyone ((Stats)), you can see that the amount accorded with Bulgaria was deducted from the Russian treasury. And to use empiric evidence, you can see that with Serbia we increased their industry 80% in a single turn, that show that Russia did handed the money agreed. Regarding peace with Greece, there are diplomatic talks that Bulgaria isn't aware of, with the use of diplomacy and kindness we helped in the peace talks, just because Bulgaria wasn't present ((IRC)) doesn't means we didn't want to include them.

And regarding this, were is the logic?

The reason you didn't annex Bulgaria was because you have absolutely no claim to the area and you viewed our land as your own anyway


So we viewed Bulgaria's land as our own but we didn't annex it because we had no claim, even though we tough it was our own? I see....

Finally, Russia's people aren't starving at all, in fact they are very well fed, better than Bulgaria surely, with the implementation of an Agricultural Bank that provided cheap loans to the agriculture sector we increased the income from the crops +300 in a single year. Do you need further evidence or this enough?
