I haven't written anything in a while, but what is there to write? The peace treaty is not signed yet, some secrecy surrounds peace talks, and the "inner" war continues. There's nothing positive to look forward to. The Constituent Assembly has still not begun its session. See more

Yesterday, everyone in Petrograd and Moscow was waiting for a "Bolshevik uprising." Scared philistines imagined armed robberies hitting every apartment, carnage, unrest - in a word, something like a Massacre of St. Bartholomew.

Austro-German offensive has begun on the Italian front.

Brazil has also entered the war and declared it against Germany. My dear reader! I'll leave it to you to count how many countries are now at war. I've lost count.

There are battles for the possession of the island Ezel. So far, we have lost the destroyer Thunder. On the enemy side, two (I believe) destroyers have sunk, and two more are heavily damaged. No one writes about the human losses, but, of course, they also took place. See more

The Presidium of the Petrograd Soviet in its entirety, that is, Chkheidze, Ansimov, Gots, Dan, Skobelev, Tsereteli, and Chernov, has resigned its duties. The cause is the adoption of regulations dictated by the Bolsheviks by a majority vote of the Soviet. Yes, the Bolsheviks are gradually becoming stronger and stronger. All of Russia will soon have to reckon with them; otherwise, they will themselves reckon with everyone else, with all the “non-Bolsheviks.”

All news from the front lines speaks of our continuing offensive, but at the rear, one hears only of these frenzied outbreaks among the Bolsheviks. In Petrograd, an artillery unit insisted that they would not join the active army. If, say, we are compelled to do the same under threat of repression or liquidation, then we will not back down even in the face of arrest by the Soviet of Workers and the Provisional Government.
