Britain stands behind league says Hoare at Geneva
Sir Samuel Hoare told the League Assembly that Great Britain remains unwaveringly loyal to the Covenant and the League of Nations. He argued collective security requires all members to bear the burden and pledged Britain will fulfill its obligations within its capacity. He indicated the current Italy Ethiopia dispute is economic at heart, urging a limited inquiry into colonial raw materials and fair distribution among industrial nations. The foreign secretary stressed the league’s role in maintaining peace and warned warlike sentiment is rising in multiple places.
