Summary of Intelligence in Adjacent Areas. a. (EXTRACT: USAFIK G-2 Periodic Report #513, 24 April 1947): "MOLOTOV Answers General MARSHALL's Letter - Foreign Minister MOLOTOV's answer to Secretary of State MARSHALL's letter requesting fulfillment of the Moscow Decision of 1945 was released to the press on 22 April 1947. This answer placed the problem almost exactly where it was in December 1945, except that Russia has now completed a part of her plan to eventuall control Korea. Mr. MOLOTOV, in his letter to General MARSHALL, states, 'I propose that the Joint Soviet-American Commission should renew its work on 21 May this year in SEOUL on the basis of precise fulfillment of the Moscow Agreement on Korea'. This letter also places the blame for all previous breakdowns in negotiations upon the Americans. "COMMENT: The reconvening of the Joint Commission is not expected to have too much effect upon the current political scene, other than a possible increase in the efforts of the Right Wing to establish a government through an election as soon as possible. This established government would then offer the Rightists a better opportunity to be heard by the commission if the Joint Commission progresses to the point of setting up a provisional government for all Korea. In case of a collapse of negotiations for implementing the Moscow Decision, the Right Wing would then have control and may attempt to set up a separate government. Regardless of the outcome, the Rightists will gain most by setting up a legal government, and the Left will probably continue to carry out its assigned task of preparing South Korea for Communism." b.
