The Foreign Ministers in addition to working on
the topics on the agenda of the Heads of Governments,
discussed very briefly the Allied Control Commissions
in Bulgaria and Hungary, the Austro-Yugoslav frontier,
and the question of inviting Saudi Arabia to the
San Francisco Conference. High American and Soviet
naval officers at Yalta touched on the possible establish-
ment of American air bases in the Kuriles and on the
Siberian mainland as a wartime measure; and there were
understandings reached by the representatives of the
armed forces of all three powers regarding current
military operations.

Publication of the Agreements
Information regarding the Yalta agreements was dis-
closed in a piecemeal fashion. All the agreements con-
cerning the United Nations, Germany, liberated Europe,
and the Polish and Yugoslav Governments (except those on
the veto, on the Ukraine and Byelorussia, and on the
repatriation of prisoners) wore set forth, with varying
degrees of detail, in a "report" of the Conference signed
by the three Heads of Governments on February 11 and
released on February 12, 1945. 2/ The White House
announced separately, on February 12, 1945, that agreement
had been reached at the Conference on the repatriation of
American, British, and Soviet prisoners liberated by the
Allied forces in Germany. 3
