Stay Of Russian Troops In Iran Causes Concern
Washington officials fear Russian forces may stay past the March 2 withdrawal deadline in Iran. With four days left, evidence of Soviet plans to leave is thin, while British forces in Iran raise questions about unilateral withdrawals. Byrnes signaled a broader talk on allied unity and Russia, noting territorial changes should come by treaty and denying any secret pact to remove Manchurian machinery. Estimates place Soviet troops in Iran at 70,000 to 75,000. British numbers are smaller.
