Note 406 — Chapter XII · THE ANGLO-JAPANESE AGREEMENT AND THE RUSSO-FRENCH DECLARATION

China, No. 2 (1904), No. 50. The so-called triple alliance of Europe was renewed in May, with a declaration that it, together with the Russo-French alliance, maintained peace. The latter, as is shown here, had extended itself from Europe to the Far East, owing largely to the conclusion of the Anglo-Japanese Agreement. The growing solidarity of the world’s international politics may in some degree be discerned here.
