- Title:
- Coll 20/15 'Muscat: Infringement of Muscat territorial waters by Persian vessels'
- Scope & Content:
-
Correspondence concerning reports of a Persian warship operating in Muscat territorial waters. The vessel was seen off Khassab, Oman. Much of the correspondence discusses what grounds exist for a British protest to the Persian Government over the incident, with reference to international law and agreements between the British and the Persians (1897) and the British and the Sultan of Muscat (1898) (see folios 95-100), upon which the Persian right to be in Muscat waters was based. Details of other similar incidents to be used against the Persians are included in the papers (folios 3-4 and 18). Further correspondence deals with the need to retain British rights should the Sultan annul any historical proclamations connected to the matter.
The principal correspondents include officials at the Political Residency in the Persian Gulf, Government of India (Foreign and Political Department), India Office, Admiralty, Foreign Office, British Legation in Tehran, and the Persian Ministry for Foreign Affairs. Correspondence between the Council of Regency in Muscat and the Wali of Khassab is also contained within the file.
