Comrade Chicherin:

I am not soliciting any high posts for Comrade Shklovsky. You know him by his work at the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Affairs.

But I ask you to speed up his departure abroad, because his wife fears that the children will not survive here. I have known the whole family since our stay abroad, and believe these fears to be weighty. This family cannot stand our conditions. They must be sent abroad.

With communist greetings,
Lenin
