The Acting Secretary of State to the Chargé in the Soviet Union (Kennan)
2523. (1) Reurtel 4088 October 25.24 You are authorized to join the British and Soviet representatives in presenting to the Bulgarian delegates the Bulgarian armistice terms as agreed upon by the three Allied Governments.
(2) Reurtel 4093 October 26.24 You are also authorized to sign the protocol to the Bulgarian armistice terms on behalf of this Government.
(3) Although the British Government had previously indicated that it desired to secure the concurrence of the Greek and Yugoslav Governments themselves to these terms prior to their presentation to the Bulgarian delegates, we are willing to consider the transmission of the terms by the Soviet Government to the Yugoslav and Greek missions in Moscow as sufficient notification to those Governments provided, as indicated in the first paragraph of your 4088, it is satisfactory to the British.
Sent to Moscow, repeated to London.
