Should France Send Envoy To Burgos?
(Received 10 a.m.) LONDON, January 25. A new conflict in the French Cabinet over the question of sending a French diplomatic representative to Burgos, the headquarters of Nationalist Spain, is reported by the Paris correspondent of “The Times.” The Foreign Minister, M. Bonnet, is known to favour this on the ground that General Franco’s victory seems inevitable, and steps must be taken’ to protect French interests under the new Spanish regime.. The Prime Minister, M, Daladier, is undecided, but a number of other Ministers are firmly opposed to the proposal, contending that such a move would in no way benefit French interests now that the Italian hold in Spain is so strong, but would merely bring France into further dispute.
