Resumo
The article examines the preparation of anti-Soviet uprisings by the leaders of the white emigration in Poland on the eve of the Genoa Conference of 1922 on the basis of documents from Russian and foreign archives, including the archives of the special services. The purpose of the uprisings was to disrupt the conference and undermine the authority of the Soviet government. The Belarusian lands, which were ceded to Poland under the Riga Peace Treaty of 1921, became a springboard for the deployment of anti-Bolshevik forces. There, under the guise of teams of loggers, white detachments were concentrated. A prominent role in the preparation of the operation was played by General V. M. Novikov, an alleged Soviet agent. These plans were thwarted as a result of the expulsion of several leaders of the white military emigration from the country by the Polish authorities.
