Stockholm, Apr. 1.
It was revealed today in the Swedish Parliament that on December only two days after the Soviet invasion of Finland, the Finnish Government asked the Swedish Government to inquire if Russia was willing to resume negotiations which had been broken off.
The Soviet Government replied that it did not recognize any Finnish Government other than that of Kuusinen's government at Terijoki.
It was further disclosed that the Swedish Government twice made it clear to the Finns that no military action could be expected from Sweden if the Aaland Islands were attacked.
The Swedish attitude regarding transfer of troops to Finland was brought to the notice of the Finns at the outbreak of the war and throughout it, The Swedish Government wished that any help from the outside should be given in such a manner that Sweden would not be regarded as a participant in any great international. invasion, and that all war material sent should be given the character of Finnish purchases.—Reuter.
