Then he's just stupid. The country is already ruled by corrupt dukes, so even a man with half a brain would understand his own ideals amount to nothing. It's the ruler's right to decide who's a traitor and who is not. No matter how evil the ruler is, he's still the ruler. Besides, he is allied with the neighbouring country, no matter if he did something "technically" or not. If he thinks such technicalities really matter, then he truly is a traitor. He did betray his country but certainly not his county. He already knows he did the only thing he could, but there was a price to pay.
