Balholm, North Sea: A copy of a dispatch from Lichnowsky

Posted on July 23rd, 1914 by admin

Balholm, North Sea: A copy of a dispatch from Lichnowsky gets similar treatment. Grey’s statement that the British government will exercise its influence in favour of a peaceful settlement of the Austro-Serbian conflict, provided that Vienna’s demands were compatible with Serbian sovereignty makes him very cross.
Whether the demands made on Serbia were moderate or not was not for Grey to judge: “that is a matter for H.M. the Emperor Franz Josef”.
