Section 1.
Sir Edward Grey to Mr. Marlina.
(No. 285.)
(Telegraphic. Foreign OJfice, September 22, 1915
YOUR telegram No. 352 of 20th September : Zil-es-Sultan.
My impression is that Zil-es-Sultan does not intend to return to Persia except
by desire of the two legations. F
You will have seen from Petrograd telegram No. 1369 of 18th September that
Russian Government have no objection to renewal of guarantees, so far as may be
possible. ^
I propose therefore to inform the Zil in the sense of Sir M. Durand’s letter of
5th June, 1898, enclosed in Mr. des Graz’s despatch No. 90 of 21st June, 1902.
Oaie will be taken to impress on the Zil that this assurance must be limited by the
extent to which it may be possible to protect him.
Do you desire that when so informing His Imperial Highness I should urge him to
return to Persia ?
1 surmise that his presence at Ispahan might disturb the feelings of the Bakhtiari
khans to our prejudice.
I should be glad of early reply.
