Springtime of Nations II: A European Republic Quest

I am once more going to advise warhawks that "voting for the most peaceful option because it'll definitely have backlash that makes war more likely" is probably not a good idea.
 
[X] Hold Schnäbele pending further discussions.
 
[X] Release Schnäbele with a full apology.

I don't really think this is worth hanging him over, if he's even truly guilty.

Holding him isn't hanging him. We could hold and then release him, making Boulanger look like even more of a fool, if it turns out he's actually innocent or something. Or just imprison him.
Why should we not just release him now rather than risk a war with the French over the price of stirring their internal politics? Holding him in practice is just us ceding our agency over this crisis to Napoleon.

I find this pretty convincing.
Would defanging France even be good for us? We still have Austria and Russia to contend with and France is nominally a continental ally against them.
