In 1940, the USSR occupied and annexed Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, leading to calls by many that the Soviets had violated international law. This book examines British, US, and Soviet policies toward the Baltic states, placing the true significance of the Baltic question in its proper geopolitical context.In the summer of 1940, in the midst of a widening European war, the USSR occupied and annexed Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, effectively posing the Baltic question to other nations that had to decide whether or not to recognize the Soviet government as the new sovereign of the region. Baltic diplomats pressed a strong case that Soviet annexation had violated international law and was a transitory development, and they looked forward to the Western allies restoring their independence after the war. Hitler's launch of Operation Barbarossa in June 1941, however, turned the tables in great power relations, as the USSR found itself on the side of Britain and the United States. This unexpected alliance overrode any interest on the Allies' part in the self-determination of the people in east-central Europe. This book is the first comprehensive study of the Baltic problem and its treatment by the Big Three from 1941 until the early Cold War. It examines British, American, and Soviet policies toward the Baltic states in light of their respective national strategies, placing the true significance of the Baltic question in its proper geopolitical context.

Kaarel Piirimae has mined the archives to throw fresh light on relations between the Big Three allies and on the slide from World War to Cold War.' - David Reynolds, Chair of the Faculty of History and Professor of International History, University of Cambridge, UK 'Piirimae's study is a major contribution to our understanding of the fate of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania during the Second World War. His research illuminates the dealings among the great powers that shaped the post-war international order.' - Andres Kasekamp, Professor of Baltic Politics, University of Tartu, Estonia.
