In announcing Its action tlie State Department took particular pains to state that political recognition, present or future of any Russian authority ex ercising or claiming to exercise gov ernmental functions, was neither granted nor intended. It also em phasized that individuals or corpora tions trading with Russia would do so on their own responsibility and, at their own risk as this government could offer no protection to Americans going to Russia or trading with Russia.
