The Pskov Peace Conference were the armistice negotiations held in Pskov on September 16–18, 1919, between representatives of the Republic of Estonia and Soviet Russia to end the Estonian War of Independence.
The grounds for the peace conference was the initiative proposal for peace negotiations by Soviet Russia on August 31, 1919. The goal of the peace negotiations was to conclude a separate peace between Soviet Russia and Estonia, with the wider aim of weakening the military bloc consisting of Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine and Poland, which were fighting against Soviet Russia and defending their independence.[1]
At a conference of the prime ministers and foreign ministers of Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania held in Tallinn from 14 to 16 September 1919 at the invitation of Estonia, it was decided that peace negotiations with Soviet Russia would be held jointly.[1]
The armistice negotiations were however interrupted since the Estonian delegation had demanded that the armistice agreement be concluded jointly with the governments of Latvia, Lithuania and Finland. Soviet Russia had proposed to Finland, Latvia and Lithuania to enter into negotiations for peace, but since no response was received, the armistice negotiations between Estonia and Soviet Russia were interrupted on 18 September 1919.[1]
From September 29 to October 1, 1919, a joint Baltic Conference of the governments of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania was held in Tartu, Estonia. At the conference, a statement was drawn up for the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs of Soviet Russia, Georgy Chicherin, and sent in a joint telegram on 4 October 4, signed by the foreign ministers of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania, in which the respective governments announced that they were ready to enter into negotiations with the government of Soviet Russia on the conclusion of a peace treaty in Tartu.[2]
