Barakatullah, an Indian professor, who wrote about the struggle against British imperialism in India, and asked that his article on Bolshevism he published âin order to win the hearts of the Moslems to the support of Bolshevismâ.
Comrade Chicherin,
1) What have you done to help this Indian?
âin publishing his article?
âin other respects?
2) We must push on with summaries, leaflets, maps of the partition of the world {{ by Great Britain and France }}
â â â â Turkey
â â â â colonies
Persia, etc.
etc.
3) What about the radio message concerning the â ultimatumâ of the British workers? (Vecherniye Izvestia, 3. VI.)[1]
Greetings,
Lenin
