HC Deb 01 August 1944 vol 402 c1188W
Mr. Granville

asked the Prime Minister if he will consider inviting a representative unit of the Russian Army to visit this country so that the British people may afford a welcome to them and show their appreciation of their achievements on the Eastern front and the part they have played in the concerted Allied offensive as planned at the Teheran conference.

The Prime Minister

I do not think that this time of full battle is suitable for suggesting such a visit.
