HC Deb 02 July 1924 vol 175 cc1325-6
60. Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Prime Minister whether the full text of the agreement signed between China and Soviet Russia has been communicated to the British Government; and, if so, whether there are infringements of existing interests of other Powers, more especially in regard to the control of the Chinese Eastern Railway?

The PRIME MINISTER

The full text of the agreement has been obtained and a summary telegraphed by His Majesty's Minister at Peking. Certain foreign interests appear to be affected by this agreement, but it is still too early to make any detailed statement on the subject.
