Description
The Near East, South Asia, Africa, and the Far East meet in Volume V of the 1944 Diplomatic Papers. Saudi oil and a new American petroleum policy open the regional papers. Greece follows, with its post-liberation politics and relief needs.
India holds a long section, from the Phillips mission to aid and press questions. Ethiopia, Egypt, and Afghanistan appear in shorter country runs. Far East papers close the volume. Legation reports show American reach growing in lands long left to Britain. Oil, bases, and local politics shaped each contact. Local rulers bargained hard with both Allied camps.
