Did Western European countries recognize Napoleon 3 as emperor?

After Napoleon 3 ascended the imperial throne, the rest of the European states almost immediately recognized. Except for Russia, since Nicholas 1 refused him the usual greeting of the monarch to the monarch “my brother.” With his arrival, the monarchical form of government was returned to France. This was the main reason why other European emperors supported his rise to power. Nevertheless, all attempts by Napoleon 3 to woo the royal families of other countries were in vain, and therefore, he married Eugenia de Montijo.
