Smith, Warren, "Tibetan Nation", p186:"The validity is often questioned, mainly on grounds of the authority of Dorjiev to negotiate on behalf of Tibet...the fact that Dorjief was a Russian citizen while ethnically Tibetan somewhat compromises his role; the treaty had some advantages to Russia in that it could be interpreted as extending Russia's protectorate over Mongolia to encompass Tibet."

It is customary for the Dalai Lama to give letters to persons, asking them to help the religion; but such letters would not be sufficient authority to warrant their concluding a treaty on behalf of Tibet. 柏爾,《西藏之過去與現在》,宮廷璋譯,商務印書館,「達賴未嘗授德爾智以與蒙古訂立任何條約之權,遺德爾智之書,系屬普通信札,謹請其努力為佛教謀利益而已。」
