The internal political situation of Austria-Hungary demanded an immediate end to the war. This is clearly demonstrated by the secret report of Austro-Hungarian Foreign Minister Count Czerny to Emperor Charles dated April 12, 1917. "It is quite clear," Chernin wrote, "that our military strength is exhausted." I am convinced that a new winter campaign is absolutely impossible; In other words, because at the end of summer or autumn must end at any cost. Your majesty knows that the bow is so strong that it can break every day. I firmly believe that Germany's powers, like ours, have reached their end, which has not been denied by responsible politicians in Berlin. If the kings of the Central Powers do not conclude the peace in the coming months, the nations will bear it over their heads, and then the waves of revolution will lay down everything that our brothers and sons are fighting and dying today. Chernin wrote that America's declaration of war exacerbated the situation. Germany had high hopes for submarine warfare, which he considered a manifesto. His Majesty has ordered me to tell the Allied Powers that our forces are exhausted and that Germany cannot rely on us beyond this summer. I carried out this command, and the German politicians left me in no doubt that a new winter campaign was not in store for Germany. The belief of Czernin and Emperor Charles that the situation in Austria-Hungary was very difficult and that it was necessary to end the war without bringing matters to an imminent disaster, however, did not affect the definition of military objectives. The territorial expansion of Germany and Bulgaria was an indisputable truth. (Laovich F.I.
