Trieste as Key to Parley’s Italian Treaty Outcome
The Big Four foreign ministers resume work on an Italian peace treaty as U S observers flag Trieste as the potential hinge of success or failure. A U S plenary aide says Trieste frames principle questions with Russia possibly conceding on the Adriatic. Russians show conciliatory signals but Moscow media counters with anti western rhetoric.
