Excerpt from The Intervention of Bulgaria: And the Central Macedonian Question The important situation which has developed in South-Eastern Europe renders it desirable that the British public should be more fully informed with regard to the difficulties surrounding the intervention of the neutral Balkan States in the war. There is, perhaps, too pronounced a tendency to consider that certain concessions to possible combatants should be made simply that our own particular interests may thereby be served, and to lend too little consideration to the injustice which would be inflicted upon the small nations with whose territory we would lightly bargain. My close connection with Balkan politics is sufficient guarantee that I fully appreciate the assistance which Bulgaria is in a position to render, and if I oppose the compensation proposals which have been put forward in some quarters, it is because I question whether they would have the desired effect while our speedy triumph remains doubtful in the minds of King Ferdinand and his Ministers. I am, further, of opinion that to again despoil Serbia would not only evidence a poor appreciation of her past exploits, but would be a short-sighted policy in view of the services she is yet destined to render.
