§ 27. Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been called to the report that one of the Allies had approached the Hungarian Government with a view to inducing them to join in an attack on Russia, promising in return territorial concessions in the neighbouring States; and whether he can give the House the assurance that no British Statesman or agent was a party to any such negotiations?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. The second part does not, therefore, arise.
