HC Deb 07 March 1918 vol 103 c2129
2. Major CHAPPLE

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether, before any military action is taken in Siberia by any of the Allies, he will, in conjunction with our Allies, ascertain whether President Wilson will inquire of those leaders in Russia who in his view best represent public opinion there if they would welcome such aid from America and the Allies as may be found to be immediately available viâthe East, in order to help them to resist the invasion of the Germans and defeat their designs to partition Russia and ruin the Revolution?

Colonel GIBBS

The suggestion in this question will be noted. I am sure my hon. and gallant Friend will not expect any more precise answer.
