I hope you will agree that in the present
situation we are bound to do all we can to help and encourage
the elements prepared to resist German penetration. If new Government
shows readiness to share in Greek heroic resistance, we propose
to recognise it at once as the Government of Yugoslavia, and
extend to it in the fullest possible measure the aid which we
are already giving to Greece. We should encourage the Yugoslavians
to roll up the Italians in Albania which would produce result
of prime importance and give them a good packet of arms. I trust
that you will take similar line and will sustain the new Government
with promise of America's powerful support and backing.
