the latter that while Your Excellency does not agree to
the interpretation of earlier correspondence (i,e. the
words T&labat and Da’awi), Your Excellency does not wish
to contest the matter with him, and further, is prepared to
drop all claims, with the exception of the personal loan
referred to in paragraph (2) above.
6. Moreover, His Majesty’s Government feel it essentia
in Your Excellency’s own interests, that you should abandon
this question of claims altogether, which in the eyes of
Bin Baud is a decisive obstacle to the disposal of the
Blockade question: Indeed His Majesty’s Government regard
Your Excellency’s private correspondence with Bin Baud on
the subject of these ’’claims’’, as having made it quite
hopeless for Your Excellency to raise this question, through
them, with the exception of course of your "Personal" claims.
Accordingly His Majesty’s Government propose to deal with
the matter on the lines mentioned above.
