King Ferdinand’s English Interview and Shifting Alliances
King Ferdinand shows a subservient tone in his letter to Premier Margaru Jeman and seeks to publish an English interview to reassure the American public of Romania’s loyalty to the Entente. The interview faces delays from an Odessa telegraph strike, while the king stresses alliance with the United States and condemns peace without Romania’s consent. Queen Marie campaigns against German peace efforts, but her anti peace message stalls among the Romanian army as March visits try to rally troops. A free nation, free world, free speech.
