independence which belongs of right to every
State, and because it is foolishly opposed to
Russia’s own well-known interests. By such a policy
she can only betray her Sclav mission, create
more than one new Poland for herself, and
artificially shift her political power from north to
south, thereby weakening her national strength.
Kamarowski further describes the selfish
schemes of England and Austria in the Balkan
peninsula.
These plans are even more distasteful to
the Christian population than Russia’s, because
it stands in the closest relation to that country
both as to race and a common religion.
England and Austria seek to entice this people
by the prospect of freer institutions and greater
economic well-being; but they can only drag
them into their net at the cost of their national
and moral independence. And the jealousy
between these powers, Russia on the one hand
and Austria and England on the other, each
wanting to get the advantage, or to possess
itself of the remains of the dying realm, is a
standing menace to the peace of Europe. This
danger would disappear if people could be
satisfied to let these nations belong to themselves.
