UKRAINIAN PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: AN ATTEMPT AT A DIPLOMATIC DIALOGUE

Abstract

The article examines the first diplomatic efforts of the UNR, in particular the United States Extraordinary Diplomatic Mission, the program to maximize the diplomatic recognition of the Ukrainian People’s Republic by the Government of the United States of America, and the program minimum – the establishment of trade relations between the two states. Different methods and tools are used by the Mission to solve this problem: negotiations with American high-ranking officials with a clear outline of Ukrainian political aspirations and concrete proposals for economic cooperation, the creation of the Ukrainian Trade Mission, the formation of a pro-Ukrainian lobby in America, first of all, from Ukrainian emigrants; the use of newspapers, the publication of brochures, campaigning events to inform the American/Ukrainian community about Ukraine, refutation of groundless accusations by certain Jewish organizations of the UNR government and, in person, Symon Petliura in involvement in Jewish pogroms in Ukraine. It also describes the staffing of the Mission, the difficult relationship between its staff, and evaluates their behavior and activities.
