Mr. A. T. DAVIESasked the Prime Minister whether any reply has been made 2407W by the Soviet Government to the Persian Government's telegram, dated 12th June, as a basis of settlement and guarantee of future peace; what is the nature of that reply; and whether it will be necessary for His Majesty's Government, acting through the League of Nations or directly, further to take cognisance of the Bolshevist invasion at Enzeli and other places on the Caspian Sea?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe Persian Government have not so far acquainted us with the reply, if any, which may have been sent to them by the Soviet Government. Doubtless they will do so as soon as it is received.
