Proposals and Counterproposals in Empire French Peace Talks
Delegations from Nassau and Westphalia urge rapid peace with France, surrender on Rhine tolls and Ehrenbreitstein while demanding precise French replies on debts and property. French plenipotentiaries insist on Kehl and Caffel with other demands, warning that delays risk destabilizing the empire’s liberty and urging a clear, prompt verdict from the Imperial Legation. Meanwhile Ruffian forces, 60,000 strong, converge near the Bog and Turkish embargo actions threaten European trade and security.
