About this item

Content

Copy of a letter, written in French, from Jean Paskevich [Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich-Erivansky, Governor-General of Georgia] to the East India Company Envoy to Persia [Iran], Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir, sent from Nacktchivan [Nakhichivan] and dated 10 October 1827 (Old Style) [22 October 1827].

In response to a letter by Macdonald Kinneir, which was forwarded by the Secretary of the British Legation in Persia, Captain John Nicholl Robert Campbell, dated 10 October, the letter concerns peace terms for ending the war with Persia. Paskevich states that the Russian terms for peace are known to the Shah [Fatḥ-‘Alī Shāh Qājār], and will not be moderated but only made harsher by further delays.

This document was originally enclosed, numbered 9, in Macdonald Kinneir’s dispatch No. 73 to the Chief Secretary to the Government of India, George Swinton, of 1 November 1827 (IOR/L/PS/9/71/84).
