Krassin declared that despite difficulties of transport, owing to the shortage of fuel, those who asserted that Russia had nothing to export would be surprised before the summer had finished.

Litvinoff, interviewed, hoped that the signature of the trade agreement would lead to Russian and foreign trade, centering on London, but the efficacy of the agreement depended on the goodwill of the British Government. Russia had large stocks of flax, hemp, furs, timber and asbestos awaiting export.
