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:
“Beauty, like all other qualities presented to human experience, is relative; and the definition of it becomes unmeaning and useless in proportion to its abstractness. To define beauty not in the most abstract, but in the most concrete terms possible, not to find a universal formula for it, but the formula which expresses most adequately this or that special manifestation of it, is the aim of the true student of aesthetics.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
