Lord Derby, replying to a question, confirmed the announcement that a European conference would be held, at which Austria would open negotiations on the basis proposed by England. He added that the British Government would ask that the whole treaty of peace between Russia and Turkey be submitted to the Congress.
In the course of a long debate in the House of Lords, Lord Derby said, although the treaties of 1856 and 1871 had now virtually ceased to exist, yet they must be held binding until Europe sanctioned a substitute. He hoped the conference would effect a European, and not a Russian settlement of the Eastern question ; the latter would involve difficulties, the issue of which wouid be uncertain.
