- Title:
- ‘Translation of a note addressed by Prince Minchikoff to H.E. Kaim Makam’
- Scope & Content:
-
The translation of a note from the Russian envoy to Persia [Iran], Prince Minchikoff [Prince Aleksandr Sergeevich Menshikov], at Tabreez [Tabriz], to the Vizier of the Prince Royal of Persia [Crown Prince of Persia, 'Abbās Mīrzā Qājār], the Kaim Makam [Mirza Abū al-Qāsim Farāhānī, Qāʾim-Maqām], of 14 June 1826. The letter concerns the ongoing frontier dispute between Russia and Persia in the Caucasus. In the letter Prince Minchikoff indicates that a definition of the frontier between Russia and Persia received from the Kaim Makam is ‘far from being calculated to remove the misunderstandings between the two States’. He also indicates that he is anxious to proceed to Sooltaneeah [Solţānīyeh] to negotiate the frontier with the Shah of Persia [Fath-‘Ali Shāh Qājār].
This document was originally enclosed in the letter of HM Chargé d’Affaires to Persia, Henry Willock, to the Secret Committee of the East India Company of 23 July 1826 (IOR/L/PS/9/70/99).
