The main features of this Agreement are as follows: (1) The Soviet Union recognized that the C.E.R. is a purely commercial enterprise. (2) In the management of the Railway, the two countries are equally represented. (3) After the expiration of sixty years from August 27, 1896, instead of eighty years, as formerly provided, the railway shall pass by reversion without payment into Chinese possession. China may recover the railway at any time upon paying, with her own capital, the price agreed upon by the two governments.' (4) Both parties agree that the future of the C.E.R. shall be determined by the U.S.S.R. and China to the exclusion of any third party or parties. (5) The two governments recognize equal rights of navigation on border rivers, and maintenance of the present border line, and also agree not to engage in propaganda directed against the political and social system of the other contracting party.",
