TRANSCAUCASUS IN THE CONTEXT OF FOREIGN POLICY OF SOVIET RUSSIA (1917-1922)

Ma Juan   (Postgraduate student at the Center for Russian Language, Literature and Culture Studies, Heilongjiang University, China, Harbin)

Transcaucasia occupies an important position in Soviet Russia's foreign policy.Soviet Russia's foreign policy towards Transcaucasia in 1917-1922 was a strategic choice made by the nascent Soviet regime in the midst of the great geopolitical crisis that emerged as a result of the fall of Imperial Russia. The foreign policy of Soviet Russia took the maintenance of state power, the consolidation of power, and the struggle for international recognition and support as its main objectives, adopted the dual strategy of pragmatism and nationalism, balanced the geopolitical influence of Transcaucasia, which had become independent from Tsarist Russia, and seized the opportunity to make the ethnic groups of Transcaucasia voluntarily unite under the Soviet regime again, and then demonstrated the implementation of the independent and equal new socialist state. The new independent and equal socialist country pursued an equal and friendly foreign policy that was completely different from the colonial policy of the Imperial Russia period, and appropriately dealt with the problem of intensified centrifugal force in Transcaucasia as a result of the collapse of the Imperial Russia.

Keywords:Soviet Russia, Transcaucasia, Foreign Policy, Lenin's National Policy.
