A Letter from Ambassador [Pavel] Yudin to Premier Zhou [Enlai]

 

My Dear Comrade Zhou Enlai,

 

I read “Tibet’s Revolution and Nehru’s Philosophy” published in the People’s Daily with great interest.

 

I am very pleased to say that this article is very well written in all aspects with profound contents and in a novel form. The historical facts and political logic of the article are irrefutable.

 

It would also be a kind of pride if this article was written by hundreds of journalists.

 

Nehru will find it extremely difficult to answer to this article. However, this article could help him out of the mire he is in now.

 

With Communist Greetings!

 

Yudin (signature)
