Sonnino arranged for the secretary general of the ministry to send a letter to the effect that, although he could not express himself on the merits of a program which concerned all the allies, "generally speaking" he was not opposed to the legitimate claims of the Jews.
Sonnino ordenou que o secretario xeral do ministerio enviara unha carta no sentido de que, aínda que non podía expresarse sobre os méritos dun programa que afectaba a todos os aliados, «en termos xerais» non se opoñía ás lexítimas demandas dos israelitas.
