MULTILATERAL MEETINGS OF THE SOVIET BLOC (1947-1991) A CHRONOLOGY
Compiled and edited by Linda RICHTER and Csaba BÉKÉS Assistant Editors: András KISS and Levente GAJDÓCSI This effort of a chronology of multilateral meetings of the Soviet Bloc States is an ongoing project and is by no means complete. In the current stage it is predominantly based on items found in sources that are publicly available. We aim, however, at supplementing it with items found in archival sources. The next stage in this project will also include further additions to the comment section, giving more detail concerning the discussed topics. We gladly accept comments, suggestions and correction of errors. Documents on meetings of Warsaw Pact bodies are available at the website of the Parallel History Project on Cooperative Security.
