HC Deb 08 April 1884 vol 287 c35
MR. ASHMEAD-BARTLETT

asked the Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs. Whether it is a fact that the Russian Government alone among the Great Powers opposes the re-appointment of Aleko Pasha of Governor-General of Roumelia; and, whether Her Majesty's Government will continue to support his appointment?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

The question of the re-appointment of Aleko Pasha is now under consideration, and it is not in my power to make any statement at the present moment.
