The results of the contact were not good, but it seems that the Vatican's attitude is not as tough as before.
They changed from asking Italy to return all the confiscated church property to asking for only half of it. This is a huge progress. But it is a pity that the Italian government intends not to refund a single lira, because this is related to the correctness of the unification of Italy, even if it is refunded one lira
, also shows that Italy has invaded the Vatican, which is a very troublesome matter.
As for why the Vatican would send such a telegram, the reason is very simple. It is impossible for the Vatican to have the final say by the Pope alone. Some people feel that procrastinating like this is not an option, so they want to try to see if there can be one that everyone can send.
steps.
As for why it was chosen at this time, it is also due to timing issues. If there is no response from the Italian government, the Vatican can say that this is for the two murdered priests.
It is a pity that the current Italian government is very poor and has no money to give to the Vatican, so this contact can be regarded as ending in vain. However, this cannot be regarded as a failure, because at least both parties know that everyone wants to end this situation.
After the Vatican episode was revealed, Italy continued to increase its momentum domestically, trying to raise public sentiment even higher.
The Italian actions made the Ottoman ambassador in Rome, Mansu, very worried. He sent no fewer than five telegrams to Halim Pasha, who was in charge of domestic diplomacy. In the letter, he described the domestic situation in Italy in detail and begged for help.
Halim Pasha should come up with a solution as soon as possible, otherwise if this continues, war with Italy will be around the corner.
Ambassador Mansu sent several urgent telegrams, and finally got a response a week later. The efforts from Halim Pasha allowed the Ottoman government to come up with a solution.
Speaking of which, this time it was really thanks to Halim Pasha's efforts that we were able to get such a quick response.
Because in Istanbul, the Ottoman upper class had no impression of this at all. Isn't this just the death of two foreign missionaries? How big a deal could this be?
It was just a telegram from Rome that let Ottoman officials know that this matter was unusual, but even if it was unusual, there were unusual ways to deal with it, so Ambassador Mansu received a compensation telegram.
With this compensation telegram in hand, Mansu immediately hurried to the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to submit Ottoman's handling opinions.
Bacona took the document, which still smelled of ink, and looked at the terms listed above. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If he hadn't been determined to go to war with the Ottomans this time, this compensation would actually be quite generous.
Sincerely.
Of course, this is also possible. Italy's constant propaganda and hostility frightened the Ottoman high-level officials? So they came up with a clause that made people speechless? They wanted to suppress Italy's anger.
How many items were listed in this reparation document sent from Istanbul? The first of them is that the Ottoman government will impose the death penalty on the murderers of the two missionaries? 2 including the Agali imam will be punished with death.
Nine principals and accomplices were hanged. In addition, Ottoman allocated 800,000 lire to build a larger church at the original site of the burned church. As for the name of the new church? It can be named after the two murdered missionaries.
In addition, for the families of the two missionaries, the Ottoman government will also provide compensation of 500,000 lire, and will also send special personnel to apologize.
These three terms are only on the surface. In addition, privately the Ottoman government is willing to negotiate with Italy and sell a batch of goods worth 30 million lire at a low price. This can be regarded as Ottoman compensation to Italy. Of course, all this is done in private? On the surface
Osman only compensated the victims.
Let me talk about this, is the Ottoman lira more valuable than the Italian lira? Basically, 2.4 Italian liras are exchanged for 1 Ottoman lira.

Of course, this is also possible. Italy's constant propaganda and hostility frightened the Ottoman senior officials, so they came up with a speechless clause in an attempt to suppress Italy's anger.
This reparation document sent from Istanbul lists several items. The first item is that the Ottoman government will impose capital punishment on the murderers of the two missionaries and 29 principal and accomplices including the Agali imam.
Hanging was carried out. In addition, Ottoman allocated 800,000 lire to build a larger church at the original site of the burned church. As for the name of the new church, it can be named after the two murdered missionaries.
