The Result Of Teddy Roosevelt&apos;s Muscular Diplomacy

I&apos;m not sure why the negotiations that ended the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-5 took place in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, but President Theodore Roosevelt had been flexing the United States&apos; power in the world. He had offered to mediate an end to the the war. Russia agreed because of the shocking losses they had suffered at Mukden and Tsushima, and the naval revolt in Odessa. Japan had agreed because they feared a drawn-out war would cripple them financially. Besides, the treaty&apos;s terms gave them control of Korea.

With the best days of whaling drawing to an end, the citizens of Portsmouth must have enjoyed the international notoriety of such exotic diplomats parading in their streets,
