UNCLASSIFIED K-39 DOCUMENT K (Continued) On its part, the Soviet Government fulfilled the obligation contracted by it with respect to the with- drawal of Soviet troops from China in due time. The evacuation of Soviet troops fromManchuria was complete on May 3, 1946. Nearly one year has elapsed since that time, but the evacuation of American troops from China not only has not been completed, but it is generally uncer- tain when the United States of America will carry out its obligation with respect to the withdrawal of American troops from China. In view of such a situation, the Soviet Government deemed it and continues to deem it desirable for the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the governments which participated in the Moscow Conference, now present in Moscow; to exchange information with respect to the fulfillment of the Moscow agreement on China. Such an exchange of information would be useful as it could assist in the clarification of the present situation of the fulfillment of the Moscow agreement on China, inasmuch as the actual situation in this respect is unsatisfactory, arousing doubt among public opinion as to the readiness to fulfil the obligations contracted under the said agreement. I am sending a copy of this letter to Mr. E. Bevin, and another copy to the Chinese; Ambassador in Moscow for the information of the Chinese Govern- ment. I beg you, Mr. Secretary of State, to accept the assurances of my highest consideration. UNCLASSIFIED
