Piip, Meierovics & Voldemaras

by Charlotte Alston

Conflict on the borders of the Russian Empire , whatever the complexion of the government controlling it, has been a constant feature of the past 90 years, most recently with Russia s brief war with Georgia in August 2008. In 1919, as the smaller nations on Russia s borders sought self-determination while the Civil War raged between the Whites and the Bolsheviks, the Paris Peace Conference struggled with a situation complicated by mutually exclusive aims.

CHARLOTTE ALSTON is Senior Lecturer in History at the University of Northumbria. Her publications include Russia s Greatest Enemy?
