Peace Negotiations Between Italy and Turkey

“In the unofficial negotiations for peace being held in Switzerland between Italian delegates and representatives of Turkey, little progress has been made. Italy insists upon holding fast to Tripoli and Cyrenaica, while Turkey refuses to yield this point. Italy promises to grant general amnesty to all Arabs who do not undertake reprisals against the Italian government, and also to respect the sovereignty of the calif in matters of religion. She also offers to reimburse the Porte to the amount of the value of government buildings and properties existing in Tripoli before the war; and to pay that part of Turkey’s debt guaranteed by Tripoli’s revenues, deducting from this sum the expenses of Italy in caring for Turkish prisoners. It is also proposed that Turkey readmit Italians to the Ottoman empire under the same conditions as those previous to the war.”
