Dear Sirs,
Your Draft Contract has reached us duly and we can now make comments on some of the clauses.
While most of the clauses are acceptable the total cost of the equipment seems unreasonably high. We think that we have to look again at the prices which are quoted by the world leading firms in this field.
Will you therefore meet our representative in Moscow to discuss your itemized and group prices. This would help us to reach mutual agreement.
We expect to hear from you soon!
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sirs,
With reference to your request to speed up issuing entry visas for your engineers we wish to inform you that proper action was taken a week ago and we hope the visas will come through very soon.
Meanwhile will you let us have your comments on our ideas about the new reimbursement
Уважаемые господа!
Мы получили Ваш проект контракта и можем сделать заключение по ряду статей.
Основные статьи контракта приемлемы (для нас), однако, общая стоимость оборудования очевидно завышена. Мы полагаем, что необходимо еще раз рассмотреть цены ведущих фирм мира, занятых в указанной сфере.
Просим встретить нашего представителя в Москве для обсуждения ваших позиционных и групповых цен. Это поможет, нам достичь взаимного согла-j шения.
Надеемся получить ответ в ближайшем будущем.
С уважением,
Уважаемые господа!
Ссылаясь на Вашу просьбу об ускорении выдачи въездных виз Вашим специалистам сообщаем, что неделю тому назад были предприняты соответствующие меры, и мы надеемся, что визы будут получены в ближайшее время.
Одновременно просим Вас выслать замечания по вопросу
rates. We may also take up the question of the new reimbursement rates during the forthcoming talks in Moscow.
We wish to keep up fruitful cooperation.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sirs,
There has been a great deal of progress in our negotiations concerning our contract for constructing the N. project. You will remember that we discussed the project in some detail in Moscow in December and are now summarizing the discussions as regards payments.
As was agreed cash payments will be made for design documents, technology and know-how, and for the services of your specialists.
With regard to deliveries the manner of payment will have to be discussed again.
Yours faithfully,
