§ 9. Mr. A. Hendersonasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he can make a statement as to the present relations between Poland and Lithuania?
§ Mr. EdenThe hon. Member will be aware of the long-standing difference between the two countries in respect of the Vilna district, as a result of which the Polish-Lithuanian frontier remains closed and the two countries are not in diplomatic relations. There were indications last year that steps might be taken which might tend to the resumption of normal relations. But I understand that this has not yet been found possible.
§ Mr. HendersonDoes the Foreign Secretary attach any special significance to the speech of the Lithuanian Foreign Minister last week, in which he referred to the threats of the Polish Foreign Minister and threatened to bring the matter before the League of Nations?
