War Threat Looms as Balkan Belligerents Refuse Peace

Constantinople, November 26, 1918 – The fragile peace negotiations between the Allies and the Ottoman Empire have hit a roadblock, casting a dark shadow over the already tumultuous Balkan region.

In response, the Bulgarians have warned that if the Turks do not change their stance by tomorrow, fighting will resume.
