HC Deb 23 July 1913 vol 55 cc2022-3
7. Mr. WALTER GUINNESS

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether Bulgaria consulted the Powers before attacking Serwia and Greece; and whether the Treaty of London definitely precluded Turkey from any further negotiations with neighbouring States regarding her frontiers, and, if so, for how long?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Mr. Acland)

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. As regards the second part, the Treaty of London embodies the settlement reached between Turkey and the then Allied Balkan States and contains no provision limiting its own duration or precluding future negotiations by mutual consent.
