A file of correspondence and press material concerning relations between Britain and Yugoslavia. The documents discuss a possible exchange of parliamentary delegations between Britain and Yugoslavia; and a meeting between Sir Frank Roberts, the British ambassador to Yugoslavia, and Josip Broz Tito, the Yugoslav leader. Other documents include a transcript of an interview given by Edvard Kardelj, a leading Yugoslav economist and political theorist, to a journalist from the B.B.C. during his recent visit to Britain, during which he discussed the state of relations between Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, the Yugoslav policy of "friendly cooperation on the basis of equal rights" with East and West, and developments in the political ideology of Yugoslavia. The documents also cover the possibility of Selwyn Lloyd, the British Foreign Secretary, visiting Yugoslavia in response to Kardelj's recent visit to Britain; and the eagerness of the Yugoslav government for this visit to take place.
