Muravieff, Eussian Minister of Foreign Affairs, admitted negotiating to lease Port Arthur and Talienwan, also for the right to construct the Manchurian railway. He had further stated that Russia had not demanded sovereign rights or power to send troops to China, and repeated the assurance that Talienwan would remain open to trade.
