Abstract

The signing of the Anglo-Russian agreement in 1907, and the First World War, contributed to a transformation of the image of Russia in British public opinion. Members of the British Parlia-ment praised the military successes of the Russian Army, and discussed the station of, and pro-spects for, future trade and financial cooperation with Russia. The events of the February Revo-lution came as a surprise to both the British government and parliament. Members of Parliament welcomed the overthrow of tsarism and the triumph of democracy. However the parliamentarians had failed to fully anticipate the degree of ensuing disorganization to the Russian Army and government, and instead expressed confidence in Russia’s ability to fulfill the allied debt. This nascent transformation in British public opinion towards Russia was ended by October 1917, and the events which followed it.
