- Abstract: The translation of a letter from the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Persia [Iran], Meerza Abul Hussun Khan [Mirza Abu'l-Hasan Khan Shirazi], in Sultaneah [Solţānīyeh], to Minister for Foreign Affairs of Russia, Count Karl Robert Nesselrode, dated 18 Zerhugel [Zū al-Ḥijjah] AH 1241 [24 July 1826]. In the letter, Meerza Abul Hussun Khan remonstrates against the alleged infringements of the Russian border authorities upon Persian territory, at variance with the terms of the Treaty of Goolistan [Gulistan], including the military occupation of lands on the shores of the lake of Gokcheh [Lake Sevan]. Meerza Abul Hassan Khan details the ineffectual attempts made by Persia to gain redress for these infringements, most recently during the mission of Prince Menchikoff [Prince Aleksandr Sergeevich Menshikov] to Persia, and appeals to Count Nesselrode for a solution.This document was originally enclosed in the letter of HM Chargé d'Affaires to Persia, Henry Willock, to the Secret Committee of the East India Company of 23 July 1826 (IOR/L/PS/9/70/99).Physical description: 1 item (4 folios)
