He accused the leaders of Britain and the United States of a policy of "ag- gression and preparation for a new war" and added: "But this can only end in the downfall of the warmongers." Gieperalissimo Stalin, who is jant Britain disavowed their re- fill, was making his first im-presentatives in Moscow and de- portant public pronouncement clare that this
