Germany resents being let down in naval parade
Berlin voiced displeasure over Britain and France declining to join a naval demonstration against Valencia. A foreign office spokesman said Britain’s conciliatory remarks failed to ease chagrin over the Leipzig incident and warned that future European crisis developments depend on powers refusing a healthy settlement. Germany seeks to avoid aggravating the Spanish situation while defending mercantile shipping in dangerous waters. Berlin described Leipzig as two Spanish submarine torpedo attempts, a claim used to justify its moderation.
