Europe at risk from Ruffians and rising Russian power
A letter warns Europe that European nations squander courage by seeking allies with Ruffians, risking strengthening a vast Russian empire that has grown from scattered kingdoms to dominate Asia and Europe. It condemns weakening western states, notes Moscow’s naval and land strength, and recalls Peter the Great era strategies to threaten the West. It also recounts Prussia and Berlin events, with siege bombardments and military moves as Russians approach.
