921 Should truely Communist/Marxist/Socialist countries maintain good business relations with bourgeoisie countries like United States?

In this 21Century World, we see four types of different scenarios. 1) Countries like Cuba (now, changing), Venezuela, staying away from bourgeoisie countries like U.S.A. 2) Countries like N. Korea, treating U.S., and its allies, more as its enemies, focus all its missiles on them, and in the process become an enemy to them. 3) Countries like China, Vietnam who though claim themselves to be Communist countries, welcoming bourgeoisie countries, and their MNCs for setting up businesses. 4) Countries like Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and many Gulf countries initially surrendering themselves to the exploitation by Euro American Multi National Corporates, gradually realising that they were losing through exploitative pricing, and groping in darkness for methods and strategies to free from themselves from the financial serfdom, to which they sometimes succumb, and sometimes show some resistance.

The following quote, from the text of Lenin's letter from Moscow, dated March 17, 1921, to Mr. Washington B. Vanderlip (from vol. 45 of Lenin's Collected Works) indicates that Lenin wanted to maintain very cordial business relations with U.S.A., and their Companies:--

I thank you for your kind letter of the 14th, and am very glad to hear of President Harding’s favourable views as to our trade with America. You know what value we attach to our future American business relations. We fully recognise the part played in this respect by your syndicate and also the great importance of your personal efforts. Your new proposals are highly interesting and I have asked the Supreme Council of National Economy to report to me at short intervals about the progress of the negotiations. You can be sure that we will treat every reasonable suggestion with the greatest attention and care.

It is on production and trade that our efforts are principally concentrated and your help is to us of the greatest value. If you have to complain of some officials please send your complaint to the respective People’s Commissary who will investigate the matter and report if necessary. I have already ordered special investigation concerning the person you mention in your letter.

The Congress of the Communist Party has taken so much of my time and forces that I am very tired and ill. Will you kindly excuse me if I am unable to have an interview with you just now. I will beg Comrade Chicherin to speak with you shortly. Wishing you much success I remain.

Who is this washignton Vanderlip?

A Note No. 83, in the same Vol. 45 of the Collected Works, explained, what had happened:--

83 In the autumn of 1920, Washington Vanderlip, representing the Vanderlip Syndicate, a large American concern, came to Moscow for talks on a concession for fisheries, and exploration for and extraction of oil and coal in Kamchatka and the rest of Eastern Siberia to the east of longitude 160 ° . A draft agreement was worked out at the end of October under which the syndicate was to receive a 60-year concession. After 35 years the Soviet Government was to have an option to buy out all the concession enterprises, and upon the expiry of the whole period, the enterprises and equipment in full running order were to be transferred free of charge into the ownership of the R.S.F.S.R. However, the syndicate failed to obtain support either from its own government or from influential financial groups in the U.S.A., and the draft agreement was not signed.

Did President Harding act favorably towards Russia of 1921?

Ans: Note No. 87 of the same vol. 45, of Lenin's Collected Works demonstrates that President Harding didn't come forward with 'gaga':

87 Written on G. V. Chicherin’s letter to the R.C.P.(B.) Central Committee of March 18, 1921, saying that, according to information received through Washington Vanderlip, the new U.S. President William Harding (who succeeded Woodrow Wilson in March 1921, as a Republican President) was allegedly in favour of establishing trade relations with Soviet Russia. In this connection, Chicherin proposed that the session of the All- Russia C.E.C., which was to open, should adopt a Message on the desirability of establishing trade relations between Soviet Russia and the U.S.A. On March 20, the All-Russia C.E.C. sent a Message to the Congress of the U.S.A. and President Harding. However, this and other friendly acts by the Soviet Government did not meet with any response from the U.S. Government which persisted in refusing to recognise the Soviet state. This hostile U.S. stand delayed the normalisation of diplomatic and trade relations between the two countries for many years.

Something about 21st Century Russia?

Suppose some American Company of 2017 makes a similar proposal to the Russian Government, and if Putin Administration okays it, what will Mr. Donald Trump's White House will do?
If a similar proposal is put forward by some American Company to an Indian Company, probably the Narendra Modi Administration, and the State Government where the American Industry is to set its feet will welcome the idea with a red carpet, mELa tALAlu and bAja bhajantris (Telugu words for trumpets and orchestra). The American Multinationals and the concerned American Departments, may silently implement all the proposals, without taking them to the notice of Trump's Administration, unless there were going to be some impediments from White House.

Mr. Nara Chandra Babu Naidu, the Chief Minister 2014-17 of Residual Andhra Pradesh State, might have jumped with joy, if he were to receive this type of proposals from American or European Aqua Companies. It is difficult to say whether he will demand kickbacks or not, which depends on evidence.
