M. Hanoteaux. Minister of Foreign Affairs,
replied to the statements made in the House
OF Commons on March 28 by Sir Edward
Grey, Parliamentary Secretary of the
British Foreign Office, in regard 20 the
Anglo-FFench situation in Africa
In regard 10 the upper Nile valley, France
maintains that the Khedive of Egypt is
the legitimate master OF these regions, and
she therefore demands from Great Britain
an explanation of what territory she
claims. France wants TO know where
Egyptian influence ends and British in
fnence commences. Great Britain's claim
on this point is most vague. France has been
unable 10 obtain an explanation, and when
the inquiries were pressed, Great Britain
had broken off the negotiations.
