- Scope & Content:
- Copy of a letter from the former HM Chargé d’Affaires to Persia [Iran], Henry Willock, in London, to the President of the Board of Control, Charles Watkin Williams-Wynn, of 9 December 1826. The letter originally enclosed Willock’s ‘summary of the case of Persia’, with respect to the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828] (not included in this item), in which he has endeavoured to represent the sentiments of the Persian Court. The letter also originally enclosed an extract from Willock’s dispatch No. 19 to HM Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, George Canning, of 4 September 1825 (now catalogued as IOR/L/PS/9/70/166), in which is discussed proposals for the mutual occupation of lands on the shores of the lake of Gokcha [Lake Sevan] by Russia and Persia, and which Willock believes to suggest that Russia’s conduct towards Persia has been neither ‘conciliatory nor accommodating’.
