metadata.value: The article examines the economic and political role of the USSR’s timber exports at the turn of the
  1920s and 1930s. Solving the problem of obtaining currency for the implementation of ambitious programs for the
  restoration and modernization of industry throughout the 1920-1930s remained a priority for the political leadership
  of the USSR. Forest exports became one of the ways to replenish foreign exchange reserves, although not
  immediately. The USSR in the specified period tried to agree with its direct competitors, i.e., Finland and Sweden,
  on establishing beneficial prices for all the parties. The situation in the European forest market in 1931–1932 seriously
  aggravated receipt of significant quantities of goods from Poland and North America. As a result, the problem
  reached a completely different level with the League of Nations secretariat attempting to find ways out of the
  crisis. Representatives of England, France, Germany, Sweden, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Czechoslovakia,
  Finland and the USSR were invited to discuss the problem in Geneva. It was decided to include discussion of this
  problem in the discussion program at the London Economic Conference in 1933. At international negotiations in
  Copenhagen in 1935, market shares were determined for the USSR, Finland, Sweden, Poland, Austria, Romania,
  Yugoslavia, and Czechoslovakia. The signed contract entered into force on December 1, 1935.
