Yes. It was very big factor in the situation.
The Confederates had conducted a serious diplomatic initiative to gain official recognition for the new nation, and when Lee was winning all the way in Virginia in July-August 1862, Britain and France came close to sending military aid.
Lincoln could see how serious the situation was, and prepared to issue his Emancipation Proclamation - a shrewd tactic that would shame free nations abroad into staying out of it, for fear of looking pro-slavery.
But he could not issue this document on the heels of a whole lot of defeats, or it would look desperate and insincere. It was the unexpected Union win at Antietam in September 1862, which gave him the credibility to go ahead.
