§ 17. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHYasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether an Ambassador to represent His Majesty the King of Italy has been appointed to Moscow; whether a British Ambassador has yet been appointed; and, if so, who is he and when will he take up his duties in Russia?
§ 65. Mr. MILLSasked the Prime Minister whether he is aware that the Italian Ambassador to Russia, M. Manzoni, has already arrived in Moscow 15 and that a Russo-Italian Chamber of Commerce is being set up in Moscow; and whether, under the circumstances, His Majesty's Government will proceed immediately to appoint a British Ambassador to Moscow?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI am aware that Count Manzoni has arrived at Moscow as Italian Ambassador. I have no official information as to the establishment of a Russo-Italian Chamber of Commerce. The question of the appointment of the British Ambassador to Moscow, which was dealt with in the note addressed to the Soviet Government by Mr. Hodgson, will be taken up in due time.
