NOT RECOGNISED
$ JAPAN’S TRANSFER TO SIAM. OF MALAY & SHAN STATES. (British Official Wireless.) (Received This Day, 10 a.m.) RUGBY, July 14. The Foreign Secretary, Mr Anthony Eden, when asked if his attention had been drawn to the seizure by Japan of four Malay States and two Shan States and their transfer to Siam, in gratitude for that country’s aid to Japan, replied that the British Government did not recognise these transfers of territories which form part of the British Commonwealth and Empire. “Nor do we regard them as permanent,” he added, “since it is the fixed intention of ourself and our Allies to drive the Japanese from these regions.”
