Abstract:
On the 16th June of 1919 treaty was signed between Georgia and
Azerbaijan. Both sides agreed that during the military aggression they
should protect jointly their independence and territorial unity.
Treaty was distinctively defensive as third clause of this treaty
directly points it out. The text of this treaty expresses fully that it was
made for the protection of Southern Caucasian newly emerged republics
from possible threats.
For the different subjective and objective reasons, none of them,
Georgians or Azeriis managed to keep their independence. In spite of
this, Georgia-Azerbaijan treaty of 1919, 16 June, is important page in
history of these two neighboring countries.
