Isvelsky of Russia warned that any Austrian move toward annexation would require consent of signatory powers and could trigger a casus belli with Russia. He urged Bulgaria to avoid bold steps, noted a possible conference within hours, and described compensation terms tied to Austria’s withdrawal from Novibazar, aimed at pacific settlement and easing fears in the Balkans.
