I regret that my advanced age prevents me from studying Czech 
as well. In the history of your people there are very many social as 
well as democratic phenomena favourable to the development of 
our movement. Those in your country who seek self- 
determination are right, that is natural, and we must welcome it. 
It’s a pity that they show but little knowledge of natural social 
movements. We firmly believe in our victory, which will also end 
all oppression of peoples. Give my regards to our brothers.
