The Ambassador in the Soviet Union (Harriman) to the President
priority
Personal and top secret for the President from Harriman.
I am wondering whether there is anything you wish me to take up with Marshal Stalin in regard to the arrangements for your forthcoming meeting. I had assumed that General Eisenhower would be instructed to work out the arrangements in Berlin with Marshal Zhukov, on the other hand there will undoubtedly be some matters which will have to be discussed in Moscow in order that appropriate instructions may be sent Zhukov.
From my experience with the last two meetings,1 the Russians will probably be asking me shortly for information as to your plans. They will also wish to know who[m] you intend to bring so that they may select the members of their party[.]
- i. e., the conferences at Tehran and Yalta.↩
