APPENDIX B
THE SYKES-PICOT AGREEMENT *
Letter from Sir Edward Grey to M. Cambon
(Secret.)
FOREIGN OFFICE, May 16, 1916
Your Excellency,
I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Excellency's note of the 9th instant,
stating that the French Government accept the limits of a future Arab State, or Confederation
of States, and of those parts of Syria where French interests predominate, together with certain
conditions attached thereto, such as they result from recent discussions in London and Petrograd
on the subject.
I have the honour to inform your Excellency in reply that the acceptance of the whole
project, as it now stands, will involve the abdication of considerable British interests, but,
since His Majesty's Government recognise the advantage to the general cause of the Allies
entailed in producing a more favourable internal political situation in Turkey, they are ready
to accept the arrangement now arrived at, provided that the co-operation of the Arabs is
secured, and that the Arabs fulfill the conditions and obtain the towns of Horns, Hama,
Damascus, and Aleppo.
It is accordingly understood between the French and British Governments—
1. That France and Great Britain are prepared to recognise and uphold an independent
Arab State or a Confederation of Arab States in the areas (A) and (B) marked on the annexed
map, under the suzerainty of an Arab chief. That in area (A) France, and in area (B) Great
Britain, shall have priority of right of enterprise and local loans. That in area (A) France,
and in area (B) Great Britain shall alone supply advisers or foreign functionaries at the request
of the Arab State or Confederation of Arab States.
2. That in the blue area France, and in the red area Great Britain, shall be allowed to
establish such direct or indirect administration or control as they desire and as they may
think fit to arrange with the Arab State or Confederation of Arab States.
3. That in the brown area there shall be established an international administration, the
form of which is to be decided upon after consultation with Russia, and subsequently in
consultation with the other Allies, and the representatives of the Shereef of Mecca.
4. That Great Britain be accorded (1) the ports of Haifa and Acre, (2) guarantee of a
given supply of water from the Tigris and Euphrates in area (A) for area (B). His Majesty's
Government, on their part, undertake that they will at no time enter into negotiations for
the cession of Cyprus to any third Power without the previous consent of the French Govern-
ment.
* Br. Doc, 4: 245-47.
344 APPENDIXES
5. That Alexandretta shall be a free port as regards the trade of the British Empire, and
that there shall be no discrimination in port charges or facilities as regards British shipping
and British goods; that there shall be freedom of transit for British goods through Alexandretta
and by railway through the blue area, whether those goods are intended for or originate
in the red area, or (B) area, or area (A); and there shall be no discrimination, direct or
indirect, against British goods on any railway or against British goods or ships at any port
serving the areas mentioned.
That Haifa shall be a free port as regards the trade of France, her dominions and protec-
torates, and there shall be no discrimination in port charges or facilities as regards French
shipping and French goods. There shall be freedom of transit for French goods through
Haifa and by the British railway through the brown area, whether those goods are intended
for or originate in the blue area, area (A), or area (B), and there shall be no discrimination,
direct or indirect, against French goods on any railway, or against French goods or ships
at any port serving the areas mentioned.
6. That in area (A) the Bagdad Railway shall not be extended southwards beyond Mosul,
and in area (B) northwards beyond Samarra, until a railway connecting Bagdad with Aleppo
via the Euphrates Valley has been completed, and then only with the concurrence of the
two Governments.
7. That Great Britain has the right to build, administer, and be sole owner of a railway
connecting Haifa with area (B), and shall have a perpetual right to transport troops along
such a line at all times.
It is to be understood by both Governments that this railway is to facilitate the connexion
of Bagdad with Haifa by rail, and it is further understood that, if the engineering difficulties
and expense entailed by keeping this connecting line in the brown area only make the project
unfeasible, that the French Government shall be prepared to consider that the line in question
may also traverse the polygon Banias-Keis Marib-Salkhad Tell Otsda-Mesmie before reaching
area (B).
8. For a period of twenty years the existing Turkish customs tariff shall remain in force
throughout the whole of the blue and red areas, as well as in areas (A) and (B), and no
increase in the rates of duty or conversion from ad valorem to specific rates shall be made
except by agreement between the two powers.
There shall be no interior customs barriers between any of the above-mentioned areas.
The customs duties leviable on goods destined for the interior shall be collected at the port
of entry and handed over to the administration of the area of designation.
9. It shall be agreed that the French Government will at no time enter into any negotiations
for the cession of their rights and will not cede such rights in the blue area to any third
Power, except the Arab State or Confederation of Arab States, without the previous agreement
of His Majesty's Government, who, on their part, will give a similar undertaking to the French
Government regarding the red area.
10. The British and French Governments, as the protectors of the Arab State, shall agree
that they will not themselves acquire and will not consent to a third Power acquiring territorial
possessions in the Arabian peninsula, nor consent to a third Power installing a naval base
either on the east coast, or on the islands, of the Red Sea. This, however, shall not prevent
such adjustment of the Aden frontier as may be necessary in consequence of recent Turkish
aggression.
11. The negotiations with the Arabs as to the boundaries of the Arab State or Confederation
of Arab States shall be continued through the same channel as heretofore on behalf of the
two Powers.
12. It is agreed that measures to control the importation of arms into the Arab territories
will be considered by the two Governments.
I have further the honour to state that, in order to make the agreement complete, His
Majesty's Government are proposing to the Russian Government to exchange notes analogous
to those exchanged by the latter and your Excellency's Government on the 26th April last.
Copies of these notes will be communicated to our Excellency as soon as exchanged.
APPENDIXES 345
I would also venture to remind your Excellency that the conclusion of the present agreement
raises, for practical consideration, the question of the claims of Italy to a share in any partition
or rearrangement of Turkey in Asia, as formulated in article 9 of the agreement of the 26th
April, 1915, between Italy and the Allies.
His Majesty's Government further consider that the Japanese Government should be in-
formed of the arrangements now concluded.
I have, &c.

(Continued from front flap)
European rivalries, imperialist ambitions, and
national prejudices, compounded by private
antagonisms and personal conflicts among
the negotiants, were permitted to shape finally
and permanently the substance of the treaty
that was signed. In the end, Dr. Helmreich
demonstrates conclusively, the Treaty of Sevres
suffered the tragic misfortune of being a
nineteenth-century solution to a nineteenth-
century problem that occurred—fatefully, it
turns out —in the novel and misunderstood
environment of the twentieth.
Paul C. Helmreich is associate professor of
history at Wheaton College in Norton,
Massachusetts.
