§ EARL GRANVILLEMay I ask the noble Earl the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, Whether he has any information to give the House on the subject of the armistice and the terms of peace concluded between Russia and Turkey?
§ THE EARL OF DERBYMy Lords, I have received nothing more than what confirms officially the statement which your Lordships will have already seen through the ordinary sources of information—namely, that the terms of peace and the armistice have been signed, and that orders have been sent to the commanders of the forces on both sides, in both Europe and Asia, to suspend operations.
§ EARL GRANVILLECan the noble Earl give us anything as to the terms?
§ THE EARL OF DERBYThe exact text of the terms of peace as signed has not been communicated to us; but I do not understand that they differ in any material respect from those already in your Lordships' hands. With regard 912 to the military bases of the armistice, I am not at present in a position to give your Lordships any information on that subject.
