BUDAPEST, June 2s.-(Delayed.)
Great Britain and America yielded
to Premier Clemenceau and Presi-
dent Wilson was overruled in the
peace negotiations with the DOL
shevih, Leon Trotsky, war minister
of the Russian soviet government,
declared in a wireless interview to-
day.
The third question put to Trotsky
was with reference 70 the attitude
OF soviet Russia toward the entente.
Trotsky's reply was:
mo sane thinking Russian citizen
believes that soviet Russia is max
ing war against Kolchak, Donikine
or the Finnish and Polish bourgeoise.
These groups are quite Insignificant.
Without support from the outside
they are bound to perish in few
days, even without our cooperation.
RUSSIA is making a defensive war
against imperialistic England, France
and America, which copy literally
the Hohenzollern methods OF screen
ing fictitious governments with the
alleged determination of small ma
tionalities, which they themselves
are violating.
"The fourth question Is whether
the soviet government is prepared
to conclude peace with the entente.
"Reply: The exact information
may be obtained from William Bull
lit, representing Secretary of State
Lansing, and Lincoln Steffens, who
visited Russia.
"The Russian press published the
text of the Russian) peace treaty
draft, which was approved. by soviet
diplomacy and the representatives OF
President Wilson. Wilson, however,
was apparently overruled, as in all
other problems Clemenceau has tie
upper hand, aiming to SUPPORT
anarchy in Russia by terrifying
French opinion.
England and the United States
are yielding to Clemenceau. Italy is
already played out.
"The fifth question is with ,egar1
to an alliance with Germany.
Reply: An alliance with Germany
is possible and desirable, the saLle
as an alliance with any other coun-
try, provided the allies abandon COM
pletely their policies Of open and
masked imperialism and the seizure
Of territories in support Of t-eir
propagation of counter revolution1ry
anarchy.
"The sixth question is with respect
to soviet military activities.
Reply: This question is outlined
above. The army is growing persist
emily and is invigorated by every
trial. In the meantime our enemies
invariably are decomposing.
THE seventh question has to do
with our ultimate military ain.
1--WE will fight on until we arc left
alone"
