HC Deb 24 November 1919 vol 121 c1428
62. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any in formation with regard to the negotiations for peace or for an Armistice between the Baltic provinces of the former Russian Empire and the Soviet Government of Russia; and whether any member of any British mission in the Baltic provinces will attend at these negotiations in any capacity?

Sir H. GREENWOOD

The Baltic Conference attended by representatives of the Provisional Governments of Esthonia, Latvia and Lithuania, is at present taking place at Dorpat to discuss the question of negotiations for a cessation of hostilities between the Baltic States and the Soviet Government. As regards the second part of the question, the British Commissioner in the Baltic States is likely to be at Dorpat in the course of the week, but it is not contemplated that he should take any part in the negotiations.

Dr. MURRAY

He will be on the doormat!
