So, its a Russia-USA pact versus who? My guess would be a Britain and Germany, but I could be wrong.

I would say that the US would leave the CSA alone and try to occupy Canada in WWI, but Britain would try to save Canada by bringing in the CSA, so reveals a "fake" intercepted telegram between Russia and the USA giving unconditional support by the czar to the US in occupying key parts of the CSA, which, if not exposed as a lie, would bring the CSA into the war.

Of course, it doesn't have to be a fake interception either, but that would go along way to try to get the Confederacy into the War.
