Petrograd Formula

The Petrograd formula was a Peace Formula constructed by the Bolshevik party after their Revolution in November 1917. The Bolsheviks did not want Russia to participate in the first World War. After the interception of the Miliukov note, the Petrograd Soviet issued the Petrograd Formula in May declaring "peace without annexations or indemnities, on the basis of the self-determination of peoples".


Famous quotes containing the word formula:

    My formula for greatness in human beings is amor fati: that one wants to change nothing, neither forwards, nor backwards, nor in all eternity. Not merely to endure necessity, still less to hide it—all idealism is mendacity in the face of necessity—but rather to love it.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
