§ Sir R. Glynasked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he has any information as to the occupation by Bulgarian troops of Greek territory and their harsh treatment of the inhabitants; whether, since Greece is our Ally and Bulgaria has now declared war on Great Britain, he will consider declaring war on Bulgaria and thus expressing sympathy with Greece, and acting in a manner consistent with our declaration of war on Hungary and Rumania?
§ Mr. LawThe information in possession of His Majesty's Government indicates that the Bulgarians are expelling the Greek population from the Greek territory under their occupation. The area in question extends from near the Graeco-Turkish frontier to the Struma valley. The greatest hardships are evidently being inflicted upon the inhabitants. With regard to the second part of my hon. Friend's Question, I would refer him to the notification of a state of war between this country and Bulgaria which was published in the London, Edinburgh and Belfast Gazettes on 26th December.
