Conference of the Baltic States in Kaunas

Lithuanians, Latvians and Estonians have gathered in Kaunas. „Słowo“ sees in this an economic rapprochement directed against Poland, while Galvanauskas wants to create a common front in the League of Nations.

Conference of the Baltic States in Kaunas

On the 19th of this month the Lithuanian-Latvian-Estonian conference, so long postponed, began in Kaunas.

The conference aims above all at an economic understanding among these states. But „Słowo“ says quite rightly that, on the basis of economic ties, a political rapprochement will also be achieved, one that "will be directed above all against Poland."

Mr. Galvanauskas plainly aims to turn the 3 Baltic states into a "common front" in the League of Nations (on the model of the Little Entente), where he intends to raise the question of Vilnia once again.
