"Livadia," the Crimea
My dear Mr Roosevelt,
Please accept my thanks for the sentiments expressed on behalf of the American people and the U.S. Government on the occasion of the tragic death of the Soviet Ambassador in Mexico, K. A. Oumansky, his wife and the three members of the Embassy staff.
The Soviet Government gratefully accepts your offer to have their remains sent to Moscow by a U.S. Army plane. Yours very sincerely,
J. Stalin
