About this item
- Content
This file consists of miscellaneous reports regarding internal affairs in Persia [Iran] during the occupation of the country by British and Soviet troops. Most of the correspondence is between His Majesty's Ambassador in Tehran (Sir Reader William Bullard) and officials of the Foreign Office. Other prominent correspondents include the following: His Majesty's Chargé d'Affaires in Tehran (Herbert Reginald Dauphin Gybbon-Monypenny; Harold Lister Farquhar), His Majesty's Ambassador in Washington (Edward Frederick Lindley Wood, referred to in the correspondence as Earl of Halifax), His Majesty's Ambassador in Moscow (Archibald Clark Kerr), and His Majesty's Ambassador in Baghdad (Hugh Stonehewer Bird).
The correspondence includes discussion of the following:
- The reported suppression by the Persian Government of the newspapers of certain political parties and unions.
- Reports that the Soviet military authorities are providing assistance to the political movement for autonomy in the north Persian region of Azerbaijan.
- The policies of several Persian political parties, most notably the Tudeh Party and the Democratic Party of Azerbaijan (i.e. the north-west region of Persia – much of the correspondence concerns the latter party's control of Tabriz from late 1945).
- The formation of a Kurdish republic at Mahabad.
- Reports of labour unrest in Persia, including strikes by employees of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company.
- Political affairs in Persia, including appointments, resignations, Cabinet reshuffles and the Persian Government's postponement of parliamentary elections until the withdrawal of Allied troops.
