HC Deb 03 December 1919 vol 122 cc372-3
6. Mr. AUBREY HERBERT

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he has any information to the effect that the Greek landing at Smyrna and its consequences have aroused anti-British feeling in India?

Mr. MONTAGU

The Greek occupation of Smyrna has certainly led to grave apprehensions lest the Entente contemplated a division or partition of Turkish Turkey—a policy which Indians, both Mùssulman and Hindu, and the Government of India and we who represented them in Paris have always opposed.
