Austria: Army Budapest can retreat to Trieste
Message from Russia to Austria
Darn! I just lost a long press to you I was composing. Well, probably better
to keep it short.
For what it's worth, I'm sorry I moved to Bud. I honestly didn't expect it to
succeed (Turkey did offer support, but when you said he offerred you Ser, I
wasn't sure what he was up to), but I was at a loss for what to do. You'll
note that I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how cooperating with you
against IT would futher our positions. But it definitely sounded like you
were not interested in moving against T and in fact planned to support T
against me. I am not against you protecting yourself and was (and still am)
happy to see you grow, but not in a way that makes my position stagnant.
I hope it's clear that I don't have anything against you. It really bothers
me to have undercut the goodwill and working relationship we've had. I really
don't want to be fighting you, though that is clearly the situation I've set
up with my move. But there *are* lots of ways for us to continue to cooperate
if you are so inclined, including several that don't require me to stay in
Bud. So if I haven't completely honked you off, we can still work together
and get you growth.
Let me know what you are thinking. I'll keep in touch, even if we are fated
to be fighting for a while.

Come on, I was pretty clear about my intent and you knew
I wasn't a threat for you. That's what made it easy for you to
proceed without covering Gal.

Well, I'm listening. If I'm not mistaken, you are asking for
support into Ser and I'm happy to oblige.
