London

The course of the Near Eastern War left the British dumbfounded. Russia had actually given up the Two principalities of the Danube Basin in exchange for Austria's logistical support.

This meant that the Russians had a very big appetite this time, and only larger interests could make them give up the Wallachia Principality and the Moldavian Principality.

Prime Minister John Russell said with a gloomy face, "Our previous plan has failed. Austria and Russia have reached an agreement. If we don't take action now, the Ottoman Empire will definitely not be a match for them.

Mr. Palmerston, does your Foreign Office have any way to dismantle the alliance between Russia and Austria in the shortest possible time?

Once those two countries join forces, they are virtually invincible in the Near East. Even if we take joint action with the French, it will be very difficult to win."
