Gazette De France 1st of December 1827
The French press mocks the propaganda of Austrian newspapers, which claim that Austrian vessels participated in the Battle of Navarino. A detailed report follows regarding the relationship between Austrian merchant shipping and the Ottoman world. Furthermore, reference is made to the destruction of the Ottoman fleet at Navarino—which had previously struck terror into the hearts of the Greeks—and the imposition of power through force against Ibrahim Pasha, which will lead to a treaty favorable to the Greeks.
