To Comrade Molotov for the Politbureau

I propose that we resolve:

1) Not a word about the amount or categories of our counter-claims.

Write about the counter-claims in general;

2) in general write about the conference and about our pacifist programme as well.

(Write == print.)[1]

14/II. Lenin

  1. ↑ This proposal was written at the bottom of G. V. Chicherin’s letter of February 11, 1922, to the Politbureau of the RCP(b) CC Chicherin objected to L. D. Trotsky’s instructions that, in connection with preparations for the international economic and financial conference (Genoa Conference), experts of the military department should discuss in the press concrete material and the amount of counter-claims on the capitalist countries for compensation of the losses inflicted on Soviet Russia by the foreign armed intervention and blockade.
    On February 15, 1922, the Politbureau adopted Lenin’s proposal.
