The Milano Telegram (1916: Year of Peace)

The Milano Telegram is the name given to a telegram sent by Stanley Baldwin on September 30th 1914 to the French ambassador in Rome.

'''There might be a chance of survival for the French nation. Report in Milan!'''

The Milano Telegram later in the 1940s became in the eyes of the French Nationalistic Groups one of the symbols of the British betrayal in 1914.
