Abstract

The article highlights one of the most complicated periods of the UPR delegation’s work in the Paris Peace Conference 1919–1920. It describes the main activities of this work – efforts to gain UPR’s independence recognition by leading states of the world; to get them to take into consideration interests of the Ukrainian people, because of the postwar geopolitical changes in Central Europe; to cooperate in political, military, commercial and economic fields with other countries. A range of problems has been illustrated using minutes of delegation meeting in June 6, 1919. The members of delegation discussed numerous problems: from complicated political and external economic questions to organizational moments, that were important for successful pursuance of the delegation’s objectivities.
