Moreover, the political and military situation here has sharply become more complicated. Meanwhile, at this stage of the Civil War, control over Siberia was especially important for the Soviet government. Here there were both bread and fuel, which were so necessary in the European part of the country. In order to take them out, at least a respite in hostilities was needed. On March 28, 1920, the Constituent Congress of the Baikal region was convened, at which the deputies, after the explanatory work of the Bolsheviks, agreed to create a special state in the Far East. On April 1-2, the last Anglo-French-American troops and Czechoslovaks left Vladivostok. Negotiations were also held with the Japanese command on the terms of the evacuation, and on April 4, the corresponding Russian-Japanese agreement was signed. |
