HC Deb 24 April 1967 vol 745 c207W
Mr. Brooks

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether it is the policy of Her Majesty's Government that the wishes of the inhabitants of the northern part of former German East Prussia will be a major factor in determining the status of that region at an eventual German peace conference.

Mr. Mulley

The Potsdam Conference agreed in principle to the proposal of the Soviet Government concerning the ultimate transfer to the Soviet Union of the City of Konigsberg and the area adjacent to it. The President of the United States and the British Prime Minister declared that they would support the proposal of the Conference at the peace settlement.
