Abstract

The article aims to draw attention to one of the little-researched pages of the domestic diplomatic experience – the attempts of the Ukrainian People’s Republic to achieve peace in relations with the Russian Socialist Federal Soviet Republic, to extinguish the flames of the Civil War at the beginning of 1919. It must be stated that in the existing historiography, for various reasons, the history of the special diplomatic mission of the Ukrainian People’s Republic to Moscow in January-February 1919 was not analyzed sufficiently objectively and comprehensively, although the actual material provides quite significant opportunities for concrete conclusions regarding the possibilities of using the lessons of past practice for successful implementation of the tasks of the current extremely responsible stage of historical progress. The problem seems significant because it inevitably gives rise to hypothetical parallels between today and the events of more than a century ago.
