asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether the U.S.S.R. has carried out its undertaking, under the Treaty of Peace with Bulgaria, to withdraw all troops from Bulgaria by 15th December; and under the Treaties of Peace with Roumania and Hungary, to reduce its forces in those countries by 15th December to the strength necessary to guard the Soviet lines of communications with Austria.

We are awaiting reports from our Legations in the three countries concerned on this subject.
