- Dispatch No. 74 from the East India Company Envoy to Persia, Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir, in Tabreez, to the Chief Secretary to the Government of India, George Swinton
- Scope & Content:
- Dispatch No. 74 from the East India Company Envoy to Persia [Iran], Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir, in Tabreez [Tabriz], to the Chief Secretary to the Government of India, George Swinton, of 8 November 1827. The letter concerns the negotiations for peace in the war between Russia and Persia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828], being negotiated between the Prince Royal, Abbas Meerza [Crown Prince of Persia, ʿAbbās Mīrzā Qājār], and General Paskevitch [General Ivan Fyodorovich Paskevich-Erivansky, Governor-General of Georgia]. Macdonald Kinneir details the increased territorial and monetary demands being made by Russia, and his unsuccessful attempts to prevail upon Paskevitch to lessen these demands. He indicates that he believes the Persian Government has no alternative but to accede to the demands, and should seek the evacuation of Azerbijan [Azerbaijan] by Russian troops as soon as possible. The letter also gives some details about the strength of the Russian army, and originally contained enclosures concerning the peace negotiations and recent events at Tabreez (now catalogued as IOR/L/PS/9/71/99-106).
