Content Description | Reports that the Emperor has recommenced to the King of Prussia moderation in the annexation of territory; has told Baron Brunnow that the British Government had given reasons why they could not accept the Russian declaration; the assumption that one power had the right to alter a European Treaty could render all international engagements invalid; if Russia had requested international discussion on the revision of this Treaty such complications would have been avoided; Baron Brunnow states that he can only maintain reserve at present.
Copy telegram from 2nd Earl Granville to Sir A. Buchanan, stating that a communication has been made to Brunnow, and an answer will be sent by messenger tonight, is attached. |
