Written on G. V. Chicherinâs letter about the Note from Britainâs Foreign Secretary, Curzon, of September 7, 1921, alleging that the Soviet Government had violated the Russo-British Agreement of March 16, 1921. The Note had no heading, address or signature. In a reply Note of September 27, 1921, the Soviet Government rejected the unwarranted accusations.
Comrade Chicherin:
I think we should break this habit of theirs. Perhaps we could do it this way: reply formally and in writing with reference to the ânoteâ. They will then realise that we shall (soon) mock at them in public and gifler[1] for their unsigned notes.
Yours,
Lenin
