A mandate for Armenia

By James B. Gidney

Subjects: Territorial questions, World War, 1914-1918, Foreign relations

Description: From San Remo in the spring of 1920 British, French and Italian plenipotentiaries issued an appeal to the United States to assume responsibility for Armenia under the mandate of the League of Nations. Professor Gidney traces the project from the awakening American concern for Armenians in the Ottoman Empire to the negative vote of the United States Senate.
