In 1921, Lloyd George successfully concluded the [[Anglo-Soviet Trade Agreement]]. Despite much effort he was unable to negotiate full diplomatic relations, as the Russians rejected all repayment of Tsarist era debts, and Conservatives in Britain grew exceedingly wary of the communist threat to European stability. Indeed, [[Sir Henry Wilson, 1st Baronet|Henry Wilson]], the Chief of the Imperial General Staff, worried that Lloyd George had become "a traitor & a Bolshevist".<ref name="CrosbyReconstruction">{{harvnb|Crosby|2014|loc=ch. 13: Reconstruction and Resistance}}</ref>{{rp|276–279}}

Lloyd George in 1922 decided to support Greece in a war against Turkey. This led to the [[Chanak Crisis]] when most of the Dominions rejected his policy and refused to support the proposed war.<ref>{{cite book|last=Morgan|first=Kenneth O.|author-link=Kenneth O.
