BRITAIN AND RUSSIA
“If it, was a question of resuming diplomatic relations with the (Soviet Government he would answer in the negative. But that was not the issue to-dav. The issue was whether they should terminate diplomatic relations and a trade agreement which had. been in force for some time. He believed that if they did so it woo’d do this country no good and would give us no weapon for fighting disorder, disloyalty or revolution within our own borders. It would create division where they sought union, and, echoed abroad, it would increase the uncertainty, the fear, and the instability of European conditions which it ought to be their chief object to remove.”— Sir Austen Chamberlain.
