Lenin's Letters From Afar

The more rank and file party members saw no reason why bolsheviks and menshevik could not take this opportunity to reunite. But in lenin's letters from afar, he was telling the bolsheviks in petrograd they must not form any alliances with any other parties. A meeting of all the emigre russian socialists was convened as each group tried to figure out the best way home. They didn't come to any kind of consensus.
