In light of recent events The Russian empire commends the empire of Brazil attempts at peace keeping in the Americas but agree with the Prussian empire and will support any action carried out by said state. We also must warn president Lincoln not let the rebellion get off easy as I fear it is the beginning of a new age of you let the Southern states rebel what is stopping from other states doing the same whenever the federal government passes a law which they do not agree with soon enough the continent of North America will be nothing more than a handful of fractured states constantly warring and succeeding from each other only leading to further bloodshed and conflict. I also commend President Lincoln's attempts to abolish the hated and damnable establishment of slavery but realizes such acts still continue in our country only under the name of serfdom and servitude and as such has decided to take a stand against such acts and hereby enact the emancipation of all serfs in all area of the Russias including Finland and Poland. I hope this act will inspire president Lincoln to also push for the same emancipation in both the rebelling southern states and in the conflicted border states of Kentucky Maryland Missouri and Delaware.
As for the Recent events in the country of neighbors the Chinese we wish only good wishes to both the passing emperor hoping that he be happy and joyful upon his death bed and may his soul pass peacefully from this world into the next where he may find a place among the previous great Emperors of the middle Kingdom and wish luck to his son who shall take his throne and hope to grow good relations between us and their people and work out any disputes brought upon by any previous actions from both countries.
Signed Alexander 2nd Autocrat and Emperor of the Russias King of Poland and Grand Prince of Finland
