M. Janin's Mission and A. V. Kolchak's "Supreme Rule": Geopolitical Factors of the White Movement's Defeat. Part 2

The second part of the article examines the geopolitical consequences of the military coup in Omsk. These include the loss of "political time", the absence of a unified decision-making centre and a unified military command, as well as large-scale problems in troop supply and logistics. The combination of these factors not only hindered the implementation of strategic plans but also made it impossible to effectively use the resources of the White movement in Siberia and the Far East. Identifying historical analogies with the current confrontation between Russia and the West makes it possible to draw important political lessons from the events of the past.
