Abstract

Summary of the News
March 21, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

The article reports on political developments in the world. Japan's intervention in Siberia has not yet been decided upon, and the international situation remains delicate. The failure of U.S. President Woodrow Wilson to give his assent to the project and his reassertion of sympathy with the Soviet Union in his message to the Congress of Soviets on March 14 indicate United States' attitude in placing the interests of Soviet union's new democracy before others. Germany's advance in the Ukraine to Odessa and the restoration of the Caucasus to Turkey have made available all the stores of grain and oil in these regions.
