Ambassadors from Sweden arrive as troop movements loom
Hambourg reports Baron Schaffer Falcken berg and Rieben reached port with credentials from the King of Sweden. While the destination remains uncertain, there is talk of a French allied plan and August mobilizations of troops near Magdebourg. Vienna notes a pending French loan attempt and looming money scarcity if it fails. Reports cover Austro-Slovene maneuvers and defences at Nancy, Metz, and the Barricades, with Italian front moves and a potential escalation toward Demont.
