“Mr Aronson said: “George V realised that, to most of his subjects, the tsar was a bloodstained tyrant… that this was no time for a constitutional monarch, apprehensive of his own position, to be extending the hand of friendship to an autocrat – however closely related.” So the Russian imperial family was left to its fate.”
But, the Russians were Britain’s ally in the Great War after all, and should have, IMO, been given sanctuary. And what happens to the Romanovs through the 1920s and beyond?
