Lincoln's principal and most urgent reason for issuing the Proclamation was to keep Britain and France from supporting the South. Now that it had become a war against slavery, they could not do this without looking pro-slavery themselves.
The failure of the South to attract support from abroad was one of the big factors that worked against the Confederates in 1863.
