Allied intervention in Russia deemed stupid policy by Lloyd George
In Parliament Lloyd George warned against any Allied plan to recognize a Russian government. He said there is effectively no unified Russia and that British policy must avoid entangling itself in Russia’s internal affairs. He urged security for those on Russia’s remote slopes and opposed a de facto recognition of the Soviet regime. Paris and London dispatches note allied talks and Wilson’s outreach at American headquarters.
