HC Deb 25 October 1920 vol 133 c1321
33. Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Prime Minister whether His Majesty's Government intended, under Article X. of the Covenant of the League of Nations, to recognise and guarantee the eastern frontiers of Poland as drawn in the Russo-Polish Treaty of Riga?

The PRIME MINISTER

The question cannot arise until a Treaty has been signed and ratified by the two countries concerned, and has been registered with the Secretariat of the League in accordance with Article 18 of the Covenant.

Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHY

Would the right hon. Gentleman say whether we have led the Polish Government to believe that we will guarantee in any way such a Treaty as they have drawn at Riga?
