PERSIA AND TURKEY.
7. Lieut. - Colonel Sir ARNOLD
WILSON asked the Secretary of State for
Foreign Affairs whether he will make a
statement as to the forthcoming arrange
ments for the impending meeting of the
rulers of Persia and Turkey?
Sir J. SIMON: Reports have reached
His Majesty’s Government that His
Imperial Majesty the Shah of Persia may
pay an official visit to the President of the
Turkish Republic in the course of the
summer. The matter is one which falls
entirely within the sphere of the two
foreign countries concerned and does not
concern His Majesty’s Government in any
way.
Sir A. WILSON: Can my right hon.
Friend say anything which will tend to
discourage the publication in this country
of statements of a misleading and
derogatory character regarding the rulers
of these two countries ?
Sir J. SIMON: I deplore no less than
my hon. and gallant Friend the appear
ance of such references to the heads of
foreign States with whom His Majesty’s
Government are on terms of cordial
friendship and under whose able leader
ship those countries have made remark
able progress ; but, as he is aware, His j
Majesty’s Government are not in a posi
tion to take any action in such cases, and
public opinion will no doubt know what
value to attach to such references as those
to which my hon. and gallant Friend
refers.
