Russia proposes London conference to gain Soviet recognition
Washington July 26 The Soviet sug gestion for a conference with the allies in London was seen as a tactic to gain quasi recognition of the Soviet regime. The State Department said it had no knowledge of the proposal but noted the United States would likely refrain from quick acceptance unless an urgent reason arose. Analysts deemed the move a bid to advance the Soviet regime’s status while using Poland’s conflict as a lever, marking another entry in a long sequence of negotiation attempts. President Wilson was said to be informed and the United States would remain an interested observer with no moral support for Poland at this time. Great Britain’s backing of the London idea was expected to be mixed, with some reservations from Italy about broader world relations.
