League For The Liberation of The Peoples of The USSR

The League for the Liberation of the Peoples of the USSR also known as the Paris Bloc was an émigré front of six anti-Soviet political groups – Belarusian, Ukrainian, Georgian, Armenian, Azerbaijani and North Caucasian – established in Paris in 1953. It published its own quarterly Problems of the Peoples of the USSR (Munich; 1958–1966). The League was chaired by Mikoła Abramčyk, President-in-exile of the Belarusian National Republic.
