The Minister in Uruguay (Wilson) to the Secretary of State
[Received December 22—5:32 p.m.]
156. Your circular, December 21, 6 p.m. Guani states that the Uruguayan Government in releasing the statement to the press tomorrow at 7 p.m. Montevideo time will add that the Uruguayan Government accepted the statement in principle with reservations.
He states that this is absolutely necessary because the President and the Council of Ministers are flatly opposed to the action suggested in the last paragraph of Argentina draft, and which remains unaffected by the second amendment contained in your circular under reference.
