After the Russian Revolution of 1917 the Bolshevik
Government withdrew from World War 1, but not everyone wanted this to happen.
The Left Socialist-Revolutionary Party ordered the assassination of the German
Ambassador to Moscow, Count Wilhelm Graf von Mirbach-Harff, by two of its
operatives, hoping to incite a re-entry into the War. The Count was killed but
the main objective failed.
Alexander Kerensky had been Prime Minister of Russia fro
just over 3 months following the February 1917 Revolution. He was deposed by
the October Revolution and gone into exile in Paris and New York where he died
in 1970.
