21. Major NEWMANasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether an official statement published by Renter, and dated the 9th inst., according to which the Entente had conceded to Bulgaria Southern Dobrudja as far as a line 6 to 10 kilometres south of the Constantsa-Fulisti Railway was based on an arrangement made between His Majesty's Government and the present Bulgarian Government?
§ Lord R. CECILI am obliged to the hon. and gallant Gentleman for giving me the opportunity of answering this question. No, Sir; there is no truth whatever in the statement.
The armistice recently concluded with the Bulgarian Government is of a purely military nature. His Majesty's Government have no intention of making any territorial arrangements with the Bulgarian Government until the general peace settlement.
