“Unfortunately my impression of Bolshevik behavior is that peace is out of the question. If someone puts a knife to my throat I have an unpleasant feeling. I am not a man to whom one can speak in such a manner.
I know the Bolsheviks are concentrating large forces on our front. They are making a mistake, thinking they can frighten us and present us with an ultimatum. Our army is ready.”
