Letter from Bignon to Nesselrode
File
Letter from Bignon to Nesselrode describing Napoleon’s desire to retire to the United States. Proposition of an immediate armistice. Bignon suggests that if the Allies wish to create a stable political system, they must adopt a conciliatory stance. Assurance to Alexander that France, in its state of redressed borders, poses no threat to Russia and should therefore have its independence restored hastily.
