Summary
Great Britain, the USA and France applied different methods of installation in the Republic of Armenia. They were British military occupation, when they managed territorial conflicts by force, created Governorships and ousted Armenian troops. Defining borders on geographic basis, the British incorporated Kars Region and Nakhijevan in Armenia, but separated from it Zangezur with Karabakh. Americans organized humanitarian intervention. They provided charity and credited the sale of government cargo; opened shelters, hospitals and workshops with their production exported overseas. The USA welcomed an Armenian mandate, though from November 1919 its administration proceeded to the direct support of Armenian independence. Two sides concluded an official trade contract and the State-run Near East Relief worked on the spot. The French developed rational economic ties. Fierce anti-Bolsheviks, they bartered weapons for raw materials, supported Armenian independence with belonging of Artsakh (Karabakh), Zangezur and Nakhijevan to this nation. On 12 February and 20 September 1920 the Prime Minister A.Millerand compiled Instructions on the French policy in the RA. On 4 November the new Prime Minister G.Leygues wrote similar Instructions. //-313
