He also demanded control of the Manchurian seaports of Dairen and Port Arthur � which a glance at the map shows would give him an unbreakable foothold in China � as well as joint control, with the Chinese, of Manchuria�s railroads. Roosevelt made these concessions without consulting the Chinese. Thus, without authority, he ceded to Stalin another nation�s sovereign territory. The president made these pledges without the knowledge or consent of Congress or the American people.
