FOSTER TELLS MONROE US BRITISH TRADE ROW VIEW
In a detailed missive Foster argues the US Berlin and Milan decrees exclude British ships while allowing neutral trade, and that repeal would be unfriendly. He explains retaliation against France and Britain is a matter between England and France, not a US demand to force British manufactures into France. He cites licences and French decrees, urging proof of repeal and noting unclear trade permissions and diplomatic correspondence.
