§ 2. Mr. KINGasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether Sir George Buchanan and the British Embassy in Petrograd were subject to any threats, insults, dangers, or other indignities during the last two months of his stay in Petrograd; and whether he can make a reassuring statement on the subject?
§ The MINISTER of BLOCKADE (Lord R. Cecil)Though neither the Ambassador nor Embassy have been subject to any direct threats or insults, it would certainly not be true to say that their position has been free from danger. I do not think that it would serve any useful purpose to go into further detail on the subject at present.
