Hoare–Laval Pact
The Hoare–Laval Pact was a December 1935 proposal by British Foreign Secretary Samuel Hoare and French Prime Minister Pierre Laval for ending the Second Italo-Abyssinian War. Italy had wanted to seize the independent nation of Abyssinia (Ethiopia) as part of its empire and also to avenge an 1896 humiliating defeat. The Pact offered to partition Abyssinia, and thus achieve Italian dictator Benito Mussolini's goal of making the independent nation of Abyssinia into an Italian colony. The proposal ignited a firestorm of hostile reaction in Britain and France, and never went into effect.
==Background==
At that moment, both Britain and France were eager to have Italy rejoin the Stresa Front against Adolf Hitler's ambitions. Moreover, Mussolini wanted to end the Abyssinian war, due to the poor performance of his general, Marshal Emilio De Bono, and unexpectedly hard Abyssinian resistance. The agreement was negotiated by Dino Grandi, Italian ambassador in London, and Robert Vansittart, permanent undersecretary at the Foreign Office. Vansittart was concerned about British defence weaknesses, and its position in the Mediterranean, Egypt, and the Middle East. He feared Nazi Germany and wanted to curry favour with Mussolini.
