In a letter to Ambassador Reid, President Roosevelt describes his role in securing a peaceful solution to the Moroccan crisis by his personal diplomacy with the French and German ambassadors to the United States, J.J. Jusserand and Hermann Speck von Sternburg. Roosevelt contends that he urged the French to agree to a conference, and that they should allow the German emperor to save his self-esteem. Roosevelt asserts that he was on good terms with both ambassadors.
