Telegram from Marshal Stalin to WSC marked "Secret and Personal" asserting that neither Vyacheslav Molotov [Soviet Union Foreign Minister] or he had any intention of defaming anyone in their communications over the negotiations [between representatives of the British and American Armies and the German Army] in Switzerland; emphasising the importance of being able to communicate "frankly" without being considered "offensive"; enclosing a copy of a "Personal and Secret" message from him to President Roosevelt arguing that Soviet representatives have been excluded from the above negotiations, that the Germans are showing more resistance in the East than in the West, and detailing an example of the "reliability" of Soviet informants compared to mistaken information from General George Marshall [Chief of Staff United States Army].
