- File 4/16 Explanation and Defence of H.M.G.'s policy in Foreign Affairs
- Scope & Content:
-
The file contains a copy telegram (reference number Intel 243) sent from the Foreign Office to the Political Resident in the Persian Gulf, Bahrain on 2 June 1949. The telegram provided a justification for the British Government's recent recognition of the Emir of Cyrenaica (eastern Libya), in the event that the Resident would have to publicly defend British foreign policy in respect of the former Italian colony and quash any speculation that similar action would also be taken in the former Italian colony of Tripolitania (western Libya).
According to notes at the end of the file, the telegram was circulated to the Resident and Agent, Bahrain for information.
