MARSHAL STALIN THIS DATE:
"I HAVE RECEIVED ON MAY 21 YOUR MESSAGE ON THE
QUESTION OF ISTRIA-TRIESTE. SOMEWHAT EARLIER I HAVE
ALSO RECEIVED FROM YOU, THROUGH MR.KENNAN, THE TEXT
OF THE MESSAGE TRANSMITTED BY THE AMERICAN AMBASSA-
DOR IN BELGRADE TO THE YUGOSLAV GOVERNMENT ON THE
SAME QUESTION. THANK YOU FOR THIS I INFORMATION.
"IN REGARD TO THE ESSENCE OF THE QUESTION I
HAVE TO SAY THE FOLLOWING:
"YOUR OPINION, THAT THIS QUESTION IS OF PRIN-
CIPLE AND THAT IN RESPECT TO THE TERRITORY OF ISTRIA-
TRIESTE NO ACTION SHOULD BE ALLOWED WHICH WILL NOT
FULLY CONSIDER THE LAWFUL CLAIMS OF YUGOSLAVIA AND
THE CONTRIBUTION MADE BY THE YUGOSLAV ARMED FORCES
TO THE COMMON CAUSE OF THE ALLIES IN THE STRUGGLE
AGAINST HITLERITE GERMANY, SEEMS TO BE QUITE CORRECT.
