The relations with Italy—of Yugoslavia with Italy have considerably improved since last fall. As it is well known, the troops that were at the border on both sides (illegible text) have been withdrawn, the difficulties in trade which occurred on that occasion have been removed, and trade is going on, and I can say that it is a rather important trade in its size and by the commodities exchanged and of considerable interest to both partners, so that the relations are now normal relations. There are no particular tensions at the border that would drastify whatever concern, but of course the question of Trieste is one that is pending and, I said, is one which can be solved, and I believe that efforts which are being made may bring about.
