Iraqi Charge d*Affaires has been asked by Minister
for Foreign Affairs to inform his Government that according
to information received from Iranian consuls at Kirkuk and
elsewhere in Iraq there is a movement in Iraqi Kurdistan
in favour of independence which might affect Iran.
Charge d*Affaires replied that according to his information
eight or nine Russians had been in Iranian Kurdistan trying
to stir up trouble.
• Charge d Affaires says that while Iranian Government
doubtless realise that there is more danger to be expected
from the north than from the south Minister for Foreign
Affairs alluded as he had done once before to Kurdistan
shooting trip of H.M. Ambassador at Baghdad as a suspicious
circumstance. This absurd suspicion which Charge
d'Affaires has tried to dissipate may have been sown by
silly reports from Iranian consuls.
From H.M. MINISTER, TEHRAN
