Jour telegram No.616 [of Au gust 28th:
hostilities by Persian forces].
cessation of
Your appreciation of present position has not yet been
received, but in the meantime you should in discussions with
the Shah and the Persian Government be guided generally by
my telegram No, 575 [of Aup ux± 27th: guarantees required from
Persian Government]. You must not however enter into
details as views of Soviet Government have not been received.
You will no doubt impress on Persian Government
importance in Persia’s interests of co-operating with us and
desire of His Majesty's Government to resume at the earliest
moment those friendly relations which have unfortunately
been interrupted. In view of dislocation caused by recent
events Commander-in-Chief has been again asked to make
arrangements for importation of food-stuffs. It has been
necessary to block payment of o800,000 which will be made
by the Anglo-Iraniah Oil Company on the due date of August
30th but you may inform Persian authorities that this
prohibition is only temporary and will be removed as soon as
we learn from you that bur requirements are to be met.
