TELEGRAM TO N. A. ANISIMOV

Anisimov
Astrakhan

The situation in Baku is still not clear to me.

Who is in power?

Where is Shahumyan?

Inquire of Stalin, and act in the light of all the circumstances; you know that I have complete confidence in
Shahumyan. The situation cannot be understood from here, and
there is no possibility of giving speedy help. [1]
