A hundred years ago, on 26 January 1921, governments of the members of the Supreme Council of the Allied Powers – France, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Italy and Japan – recognised the Republic of Estonia.
On 27 January 1921, the Postimees daily announced, “Final recognition – which is, after all, what recognising ‘de jure’ or ‘by law’ means – by the major powers of the West completely opens up the path for the Estonian people into the esteemed family of nationally independent nations. Any doubts and disbelief about whether the Estonian nation, regardless of its thirst for freedom and brave struggle for independence, can preserve its independence have been removed once and for all with the final recognition among the great Western nations.”
