818 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিলপত্রঃ তৃতীয় পত্র political solution was suggested "to the satisfaction of the entire people of Pakistan", (iv) On the recent visit of the Indian Prime Minister to Soviet Union although a little change in the Soviet attitude has emerged, but the position remains basically the same. Never-theless this little change can be considered to be a reasonable achievement from the Indian point of view, India has been able to make Russia say things which the latter did not say before. For example Mr. Kosygin said "it is impossible to achieve the action of the Pakistani authorities which compelled more than 8 million people to leave their motherland, their homes, and their properties and to look for shelter in neighboring India. (THE STATESMAN, page 1, dated 29.9.71) On the next day Mr. Kosygin proclaimed Soviet sympathy for the democratic forces in Pakistan and said "the atrocities and the like committed against the people there will never enjoy the support of the Soviet people". However, the Soviet Union reaffirmed its position with regard to East Bengal situation as laid down in the original appeal of Mr. Podgorny to General Yahya Khan on April 2, 1971. Furthermore the basic position remains the same. Russia desires a peaceful political solution of the crisis in Bangladesh and appears to be opposed to any kind of aggravation that would provoke a military confrontation between India and Pakistan. But from its stand taken in the joint communiqué after Indo-Soviet treaty for a political solution "to the satisfaction of the entire people of Pakistan", the Soviet Union has gone this time a little further (closer to Indian side) by saying that "urgent measures should be taken to reach a political solution of the problems which have arisen there, paying regard to the wishes, in alienable rights and lawful interests of the people of East Pakistan as well as the speediest and safe return of the refugees to their homeland in conditions safeguarding their honor and dignity". In return India had also to accept the idea of a political through negotiations which is contrary to her earlier stands, (v) Technicians and other experts working both in West and East as usual. It is believed that the Russians do not want any War or any kind of aggravation of the situation between India and Pakistan on Bangladesh issue Their continued policy, as it has been in last ten years all over the world, has been to extend its influence without much of actual confrontation and achieve her goal through shrewed diplomatic means. THEREFORE THE USSR WOULD LIKE TO SEE PAKISTAN REMAINS AS A ONE SINGLE STATE AT THIS STAGE. CHINA; Although China has supplied arms to Pakistan and gave allout support to Yahea Khan's regime at the beginning, it is now believed that the Chinese Government has become cautions and lately has not made any utterances at. On the contrary signs of little change in the policy of Chinese Government towards the crisis of Bangladesh are gradually emerging.
