HC Deb 23 May 1928 vol 217 c1892
Commander KENWORTHY

(by Private Notice) asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can make any statement as to the reasons for the visit of M. Valdemaras to this country, and what matters are under discussion?

Sir A. CHAMBERLAIN

After the December meeting of the Council of the League, M. Valdemaras paid visits to Berlin and Paris. At that time, he informed me that he hoped to visit London in the spring, and I assured him that I should be very glad to welcome him here. The only matter of business discussed between us has been the negotiations now taking place between Lithuania and Poland, in pursuance of the recommendation made by the Council. I pressed upon M. Valdemaras the importance attached by His Majesty's Government to the success of these negotiations and to the establishment, as desired by the Council, of good neighbourly relations between the two Powers.
