Bill Still in part comments:
"US-Russian friendship – known in diplomatic language as
“normalized bi-lateral relations” – jumped significantly during the American
Civil War.
A little known fact is the Russians helped President
Abraham Lincoln preserve the Union when in 1863 – at the height of the Civil
War, Czar Alexander II sent part of his Baltic fleet to port in New York and
part of his Pacific fleet to port in San Francisco as a show of force and
friendship between the two nations.
Tsar Alexander gave orders that if either England or
France actively intervened to support the South, Russia would consider such
action as a declaration of war.
This was at a time when the Rothschild banking
families were angered that the United States had been out of their control
since its founding.
This split away from the privately-owned central
bank system of the Rothschilds was exacerbated when Lincoln decided to issue
debt-free US Notes instead of borrowing for their war needs from
Rothschild-affiliated banks in London and Paris.
Czar Alexander II had also fought to prevent the
Rothschilds from establishing their central bank in Russia.
The Czar knew his chances of keeping his nation free
of central bank control over the national money system would be seriously
diminished if they were to finally capture the United States banking system –
something which did not finally occur until the passage of the Federal Reserve
Act of 1913.
Historian Thomas Bailey, in America Faces Russia,
wrote that with the Union split, Russia had to face her enemies alone.
Therefore, Russia had a vested interest in the outcome of the Civil War.
The Russians provided a stabilizing force to ensure
that the wealthy new nation was not divided in twain; and then the two pieces
returned to colonial status – England re-colonizing the North – and France
re-colonizing the South.
Despite the fact that the North had seen recent
victories at Gettysburg and Antietam, ironclads that were being built in
British shipyards that would soon be sent to the Confederate Navy to help it break
the Northern naval blockade of southern goods being exported to Europe – the
main source of income for the South.
In the heart of the Confederacy, French diplomats
were busy securing the support of the South to take over Mexico.
Lincoln had no other friends among European
nations."
