Letter to Nikolay Krestinsky, August 12, 1920
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1975, Moscow, Volume 44, page 414c
Written in connection with a letter from A. N. Voznesensky, formerly head of the Eastern Department of the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Affairs, who considered that he had been wrongfully dismissed. The matter was discussed on August 19, 1920, at the Politbureau of the CC, RCP(b), which directed Chicherin to use Voznesensky in one of the subcommissions of the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Affairs as a specialist on the eastern question having a knowledge of Eastern languages and English.
Comrade Krestinsky,
Is it not possible somehow to make a check through a strict commission? Voznesensky was working effectively.
Is there not some irregularity about his removal? personal? squabbling?
Lenin
12/8. 1920
