- Abstract
The article presents the view of the British considering the role and meddling of Italy, regarding solving the so called Carinthian question 1918-1920. The analysis was based on unpublished British primary sources. The authors studied the tense post-war relations between Italy and the newly established Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes. Taking this into regard, they highlighted the problem of railway connections from Trieste via Central Europe. Two out of three international lines had to go through the Slovenian (Yugoslavian) territory. Italy strove hard to set up and use lines away from the Yugoslav territory which resulted in her support to Austria and her territorial aspirations. Furthermore, the authors concentrated on military clashes which happened in Carinthia - the Italian military encroached upon it on June 13th, 1919 and consequently occupied part of it. As the British came to find out, the Italian support for Austrian territorial aspirations was obvious.
