ABSTRACT

The military co-operation provided for in document 6 was outlined in this 1892 draft agreement, which was ratified by the two governments in December 1893 and January 1894.

France and Russia, being animated by an equal desire to preserve peace, and having no other object than to meet the necessities of a defensive war, provoked by an attack of the forces of the Triple Alliance against the one or the other of them, have agreed upon the following provisions:

1. If France is attacked by Germany, or by Italy supported by Germany, Russia shall employ all her available forces to attack Germany.
