British-Italian Accord

British and Italian representatives have hammered out an agreement about territory. The British Government has considerable assets in the Middle East such as Palestine and Egypt. Many of these are within a very short distance to Italy's African possession, Abyssinia, which was recently obtained.

The two nations have agreed to conflict with each other in that region, at least. In the agreement, Britain recognized Italy's conquest of Ethiopia. Also. Italy promised to withdraw her troops from Spain should that country's bloody and brutal Civil War conclude.
