- Abstract: The remarks of the Prince Royal, Abbas Meerza [Crown Prince of Persia, ʿAbbās Mīrzā Qājār] on the proposals made by Russia for the agreement of peace in the war between Persia [Iran] and Russia [Russo-Persian War, 1826-1828] (see IOR/L/PS/9/71/99). The Prince Royal proposes that the River Araxes [River Aras] be made the border between Russia and Persia, and opposes the Russian demand for the territorial cession of Talish from Persia to Russia. He also proposes a counter offer to Russian financial demands, suggesting Persia pay five crores of tomans [Persian currency], rather than the Russian demand for the payment of fifteen, with the occupation of Tabreez [Tabriz] or Khoee [Khoy] by Russian troops to serve as security on the payment.This document was originally enclosed, numbered 4, in dispatch No. 74 of the East India Company Envoy to Persia, Lieutenant-Colonel John Macdonald Kinneir, to the Chief Secretary to the Government of India, George Swinton, of 8 November 1827 (IOR/L/PS/9/71/98).Physical description: 1 item (2 folios)
