V. I. Lenin

To Stalin

We have just decided, in the Political Bureau, that the Army Groups shall be separated, so that you will deal
exclusively with Wrangel. Following the uprisings, especially in
the Kuban and then in Siberia, the Wrangel danger is becoming
enormous, and the opinion is mounting in the Central Committee
that peace with bourgeois Poland should he concluded immediately. Please study the Wrangel situation very carefully and
let us know your conclusions. I have arranged with the
Commander-in-Chief that you are to get more ammunition,
reinforcements and aircraft. Together with his friends,
Dzerzhinsky has set up a Polish revolutionary committee and has
issued a manifesto.

Lenin
