Polish-Soviet Treaty of 1921
The Polish-Soviet Treaty of 1921 was an agreement between Poland and Soviet Russia to temporarily stop fighting and establish peaceful ties after years of conflict following World War I and the Russian Revolution. It recognized Poland's eastern borders, allowing Poland to secure its independence and borders, while the Soviets aimed to regain territories lost during the chaos. The treaty also included provisions for mutual non-aggression and diplomatic cooperation. Although it didn't resolve all disputes, it helped stabilize the region temporarily. The treaty was crucial in shaping the borders and relations between the two nations during the interwar period.
