Československo a Sovětský svaz očima předních jugoslávských exilových politiků v letech 1941-1943

The paper focuses on the views of the representatives of the Yugoslav government- in-exile in 1941–1943 on the Czechoslovak partners and the Soviet Union and on the possibilities of cooperation with these states too. The views of the leading figures of the Yugoslav government-in-exile were mainly influenced by the current war situation. There were mostly no negative references to Czechoslovakia in Yugoslav diplomatic and political reports at the time, while Yugoslav exile leaders took a very distant view of possible cooperation with the Soviet Union. The Czechoslovak-Soviet Treaty of Friendship, Mutual Assistance and Post-war Collaboration, signed in Moscow on 12 December 1943, also attracted some attention, which Yugoslav politicians viewed through the prism of their difficult position in exile. The topic will be examined primarily on the basis of published and archival sources, memoirs, as well as relevant literature.
