The Polignac Memorandum was a document by George Canning (British Foreign Secretary) written in October 1823, stating that Great Britain had no intention of aiding Spain in the retention of her colonies in Latin and South America. The document was a result of talks with Prince Jules de Polignac, the French Ambassador to Great Britain. Both countries (France and Great Britain) agreed that there was no hope of Spain recovering her colonies in the Americas, that neither nation had any desire to gain territory in the region, or gain exclusive commercial treaties. Canning was then able to advise King George IV to extend diplomatic recognition to Buenos Aires, Colombia, and Mexico, and authorize British ministers in South America to negotiate with their respective states for commercial treaties.

  • El memorándum de Polignac fue un documento redactado por George Canning sobre el resultado de las conferencias sostenidas entre el 9 y 12 de octubre de 1823, entre él y el príncipe Jules de Polignac, embajador francés en Inglaterra, tras la restauración de Fernando VII de España como monarca absoluto. Ambos países (Francia e Inglaterra) coincidieron en que no había forma de que España recuperara sus colonias en América. El documento señalaba que Gran Bretaña y Francia no tenían intenciones de ayudar a España a conservar sus colonias en América Latina, y que ninguna nación europea tenía deseos de ganar territorio en la región, u obtener tratados de exclusividad comercial en la misma. Canning señalaba que actuaría en caso de intervención de otra potencia europea, y que si España no lo hacía, procedería a reconocer la independencia americana, sin importar la forma de gobierno monárquica, que aconsejaría al rey Jorge III sobre extender el reconocimiento diplomático a Buenos Aires, Colombia y México, y autorizar a los ministros británicos en Sudamérica a negociar con sus respectivos estados para alcanzar acuerdos comerciales. Durante ese período, los Estados europeos habían formado la Quíntuple Alianza después del Congreso de Viena de 1815 con el fin de restaurar el balance europeo después de las Guerras Napoleónicas. Jean-Baptiste de Villèle, primer ministro francés bajo Luis XVIII, vio el memorándum como una manera de negar a Fernando VII la ayuda en sus intenciones de reconquistar sus colonias. El 2 de diciembre de 1823 los Estados Unidos dieron a conocer también su doctrina Monroe en favor de la causa americana, aunque debido a su limitada posición internacional fue tomada con indiferencia por las potencias europeas.

During this time period, the European states had formed the Quintuple Alliance after the 1815 Congress of Vienna to restore balance to Europe after the Napoleonic Wars. Spain was having trouble with its colonies in Latin and South America, and was fighting a losing battle to remain an empire. Villele, the French Prime Minister under Louis XVIII viewed the Polignac Memorandum as a way to refuse to aid Ferdinand VII in his attempts to regain his colonies. (en)
