Fiume Solution Proposed as Buffer State by Italians and Jugoslavs
The Italian and Jugoslav delegations favor a buffer state for Fiume protected by the League of Nations but not governed by it. A five member council would run government with four local divisions including Fiume, Veglia, Arbe, and Libournia coast. Population around 160,000 with Jugoslavs in majority outside Fiume. Debate centers on Italian predominance and a future plebiscite, risking nationalist tensions and a potential clash with Italian troops.
