MONTEON GONZALEZ, Humberto. Solidarity: a bridge that united Mexico and Soviet Russia. Espiral (Guadalaj.) [online]. 2011, vol.18, n.51, pp.73-102. ISSN 1665-0565.

On May 25^th 1923, General Alvaro Obregón, president of the United States of Mexico, received a letter from D.H. Dubrowsky, representative of the Russian Red Cross in America, New York-based. The Central Committee of that humanitarian organization thanked the government of Obregón for the aid offered by the Mexican people and government to the victims of the starvation the Volga region endured during the 19211923 period. The objective of the present article is to dust this extraordinary episode for being, in our opinion, the most outstanding prolegomenon in a process that ends with the establishment of the relations between Mexico and the Soviet Union, on August 2nd, 1924.

Keywords : Russia; Solidarity; diplomacy; starvation.
