Washington notes linked to Italian inquiry on Russian settlement

It affirmed the territorial integrity of Russia and rejected dismemberment while signaling reluctance to join a broader European conference that could recognize Bolshevik state boundaries. The note also discussed succession of the old Russian republics, including Georgia and Armenia, and described U.S. approval of steps toward independence for these regions.
