Dubious statement[edit]

"Maksimov was a consultant to the Soviet of Nationalities": There was no Soviet of Nationalities in 1926 (there was in 1920-22). But there was the Nationalities department (отдел национальностей) of VTsIK (1919—1937). Probably the foreign researcher cited didnt realize the distinction. - Altenmann >talk 20:55, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I've just created Council of Nationalities (disambiguation). - Altenmann >talk 21:22, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
