The San Remo Resolution: Palestine's Failed Mandate
Om avsnittet
In April 1920, the Allied powers gathered in the Italian town of San Remo and carved up the remnants of the Ottoman Empire. The San Remo Resolution laid the legal groundwork for the British Mandate for Palestine, incorporating the Balfour Declaration into international law. This episode unpacks the conference's decisions, the clash between Emir Faisal and Zionist leader Chaim Weizmann, the secret Sykes-Picot Agreement that preceded it, and the early seeds of Palestinian resistance. Lucas and Luna explore how a few weeks of diplomacy in a coastal resort shaped the next century of conflict. They discuss the King-Crane Commission, the role of Italian Prime Minister Francesco Saverio Nitti, and why the resolution's promises to both Arabs and Jews proved irreconcilable. A deep dive into the legal and political architecture that set the stage for the Mandate era.
