HC Deb 02 July 1907 vol 177 cc529-30
MR. GOOCH (Bath)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any information in reference to the pillaging of Suluk and other Armenian villages in the plain of Mush by the Turks; and whether he will direct His Majesty's Ambassador at Constantinople to make representations, -with a view of preventing similar occurrences.

SIR EDWARD GREY

I have received no information with regard to the village named, but His Majesty's Ambassador at Constantinople has recently made representations to the Turkish Government respecting the condition of the Armenian villages in the plain of Mush, and His Majesty's Vice Consul at Van has been instructed to make a tour in the district.
