Put this goal has not yet been reached. There Is still no court of arbitration established by all the nations London. The RoMictlkl government, represented by Nikolai l.eiiine and Leon Trotzky, has nccedml to the demands of Gcrmuny and announced Its readiness to accept the hard peace terms which Germany has laid down.
