October 23, 1947	Draft of Telegram to Vyshinsky on the Korean Question Vyshinsky is instructed that, because the Korean issue is already on the UNSC agenda, it should remain there.

Elected representatives from both Koreas should be invited to discussions. A time span for the troop withdrawals must be set. The draft includes some scrawled recommendations from Stalin.

October 29, 1947	Telegram No. 293, V. Molotov to Cde. Stalin Molotov writes that Vyshinsky must insist on the Koreans being invited to any discussion on removing foreign troops from Korea.

September 20, 1947	Ciphered Telegram, Molotov to Cde. Stalin Molotov relates how the Americans have rejected the Soviet position toward establishing a temporary all Korean assembly. While there is some overlap between both positions, this issue has now been exacerbated by Marshall's move to decide it in the UNGA.

September 18, 1947	Ciphered Telegram, Molotov to Cde. Stalin Molotov reports his answers to several questions from Vyshinsky: he advises not to be so contentious with Marshall on private questions.
