Part of the debate – in the House of Commons am 12:00 am ar 24 Tachwedd 1947.
The indictment of 19 members of the Roumanian National Peasant Party alleges that Dr. Maniu systematically supplied the United States and British Representatives in Roumania with tendentious and confidential information and mentions two interviews between His Majesty's Minister (then British Political Representative) and Dr. Maniu. It contains nothing in the nature of charges against His Majesty's Minister nor does it attribute to him conduct exceeding his duties as British Political Representative under an Armistice of which His Majesty's Government was one of the three controlling Powers. The hon. Member for Chichester is mentioned once, when the indictment merely states that he was introduced to Dr. Maniu by His Majesty's Political Representative. In the circumstances my right hon. Friend does not propose to take the matter up with the Roumanian Government.
