It was the King of Denmark who stated, and here I quote, "The Kingdom of Denmark...rejects [b]any further call[/b] for negotiations concerning this issue." The King of Denmark forced our hand. However, we reject the libelous assertions of the United Kingdom that the Kingdom of Prussia seeks to annex the territory. If that were so, why would the Austrian Empire come to our aid?" ~Otto von Bismarck, Foreign Minister, the Kingdom of Prussia
