Telegram from H. M.’s Minister, Tehran, to High Commissioner, Iraq, No. 7,
dated 20th January 1930. (Repeated to Foreign Office,. No. 12 axd
Bushire, No. 7.)
Minister of Court has written to me personal letter to the effect that he learns
that on the occasion of prospective meeting between King Feisal and Ibn Sand
at Safa a deputation of Bahreini will present congratulations to the two sovere
igns.
His Highness begs this may not be allowed in view of fact that question of
Bahrein is now under discussion between His Majesty’s Government and Persian
Government.
If there is any truth in this report I consider such a deputation from
Bahreini at present moment is inadvisable and can serve no useful purpose.
