Capítulo 1368: Chapter 196: Diplomatic Intelligence of the Caucasus

Indeed, Great Britain did sign an agreent with Persia.

The agreent explicitly stipulates: When Persia is at war with any European country, Britain will provide financial support or directly send troops from India to aid Persia.

Funds have indeed been provided by the Foreign Office, but the exact amount is uncertain.

As for sending troops directly from India to support Persia, didn’t you notice the ‘or’ in front?

The British Governnt certainly cherishes its longstanding relationship with Persia, but due to traditional friendship and economic ties with Russia, as well as having a common enemy in France, Britain must cautiously deliberate when confronting Russia in alliance with Iran.

Those Persians who failed to understand this lost their territories, and a certain forr high-ranking officer from Scotland Yard was taught a lesson in Liverpool.

Of course, on the other hand, there’s no problem with Russians carving off so land from Persia and asking for so reparations.

However, if the Russian ambitions expand, say, completely annexing Persia or making Persia a Russian colony, then the British Governnt, which symbolizes freedom and progress and who once liberated the North Arican colonial populace, will not stand idly by.

The British Foreign Office firmly opposes the long-standing practice of certain countries interfering in the internal affairs of others and imposing hegemony, firmly opposes any country achieving its political goals through military threats, intimidation, or ard intervention, and firmly opposes certain countries using their international status and strong military and economic power to interfere in other countries’ affairs and impose their will.

To prevent such situations from recurring, the British Foreign Office has decided:

Firstly, to express strong condemnation against the aggressor and sincere condolences to the victim. The British Governnt shows deep sympathy to all the people of countries who are infringed upon due to hegemonic acts and supports their efforts to uphold national sovereignty and territorial integrity.

Secondly, to strengthen the strategic partnership of mutual trust and mutual benefit between Britain and Persia, with specific asures including but not limited to:

1. Opening exports of British-standard weapons and signing a new batch of weapons export orders. To enhance the Persian Kingdom’s defense capacity and ensure the long-term stability of the region, the British Governnt decided to expand military cooperation with Persia. The new batch of weapon orders will involve Britain’s advanced light and heavy weapons equipnt, aid at enhancing the Persian Kingdom’s self-defense capability. anwhile, the Foreign Office solemnly states that the export of these weapons will adhere to strict international laws and arms trade agreents to ensure they are used solely for the Persian Kingdom’s defense needs.

2. Increasing the size of the British Officer Corps stationed in Persia, aiding the Persian Kingdom in transitioning and innovating from a feudal army to a modern army. As an essential part of the strategic partnership between Britain and Persia, Britain will increase the number of military advisors and instructors stationed in Persia to assist with military reform. This cooperation will cover military training, tactical guidance, operation of modern equipnt, and optimization of military organizational structure, helping the Persian Kingdom establish a more efficient and modern military force to ensure it has sufficient capability to handle any external threats.

3. Promoting deeper interaction in economic and trade relations between the two countries; Britain and Persia will enhance cooperation in the fields of economy and trade, promoting more unilateral investnt and project collaborations, especially in raw materials, infrastructure construction, and technology exchanges.

4. Simultaneously, both parties will strengthen intelligence exchanges, striving to establish a normalized intelligence sharing chanism by the 1840s, engaging in comprehensive cooperation on counter-espionage, regional security, and other aspects, ensuring the effective safeguarding of the two countries’ common interests.

Thirdly, reforms regarding the Britain-Persian intelligence exchange chanism and other contents will be entrusted to the Earl of Dalmo, Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland to the Russian Empire Court, for supervision, and executed specifically by Sir Arthur Hastings, the Cultural Attaché of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland at the Russian Empire Court.
