Today -100: August 9, 1915: Of separate peaces
Russia rejects an offer of peace from Kaiser Wilhelm, it is reported (update: tomorrow the Danish royal family, who were said to be the intermediaries, deny this, for whatever that’s worth).
Serbia is willing (under pressure from the Allies) to return to Bulgaria the lands it acquired during the Second Balkan War, which is Bulgaria’s stated price for remaining neutral. Greece isn’t willing to give up its new lands.
