As regards the new Government in Peru, His Majesty’s Representative has been instructed to act in concert with his French, Italian and United States colleagues or with a majority of them to accord recognition which pending the completion of constitutional formalities should be de facto only. If other Powers accord full recognition, His Majesty’s Government are prepared to consider similar action.
