German vessels and their cargoes
in Russia, as well as Russian
vessels and their cargoes in Germany,
shall be placed on the same
footing as local ships and cargoes,
regardless of where the vessel
sailed from or whither bound,
regardless also of the origin or
destination of their cargoes.
Every prerogative and every
immunity which may be granted
by one of the contracting parties
to a third country, shall be extended
automatically and unconditionally
to- the other party.
However, exception is made
from the foregoing stipulations
a) In regard to those special
privileges which, in either country,
now exist, or may be granted
in the future, to the home
fisheries and their produce;
&) In regard to the privileges
granted now or in the future to
the national merchant fleet.
The stipulations of the present
agreement do not apply to coastwise
shipping whicn, as heretofore,
shall be regulated in both
countries by existing or future
laws. However, in any case
German and Russian vessels shall
be permitted to sail from a port
of one of the contracting parties
to one or more ports of the same
country, whether for complete or
Eartial discharge of the cargo
rought from abroad, or for taking
on or completing a cargo destined
for abroad.
