Ah, yes, the Russians have returned.

Trust me Tzar, what I do, I do for the Russian people. I have thought long and hard about what you said concerning the "rougue" fleet commander in SEV that first year. And while I believe you it was someone acting against your orders, I began to think, what kind of leader is it that a officer would disobey a direct order? Surely not a single military commander under my control wouldn't DARE go against my orders. Clearly the Russian people deserve a more forceful leader. One who doesn't shirk his command, and go on vacation while at war! Sedar Turkmenbashi is currently on vacation in Florida... er ... that's in south Turkey, but I am still fully in control of my military machine. As you can well see.

To my fellow leaders of Europe. The Russian leader seeks to destroy Europe and attack his neighbors. If we do not strike back, those of you on the other side of the continent will soon be in danger if he is not stopped. To Arms, To Arms!

Yes, the Tzar has returned.

Only to find that his trust has been betrayed by some of his former
allies who have taken the opportunity of his absence to plot against
Russia. Worse, these deceitful Powers did not keep their promises,
made as men of honour, but instead launched attacks against the
Russian Liberator.
Let this be a warning for everyone who dares to entrust Powers like
these with their plans and think they might honour their agreements.

Shame on you, Serdar Turkmenbashi of Turkey, who I regarded as my
brother, to break our agreement not just once but twice.
Shame on you, Kevin of Italy, who I helped to get a share of former
Austria-Hungary, only to be backstabbed in return.

The Tzar.
