The Minister in Estonia (Wiley) to the Secretary of State

Tallinn, July 11, 1940—1 p.m.
[Received July 11—10:30 a.m.]

88. I saw the new Foreign Minister61 this morning. He said that the elections would take place “with the collaboration of the Communist Party”. I inquired regarding the future status of Estonia. He replied that personally he did not foresee immediate Anschluss with the Soviet Union but could express no opinion with regard to the future.
