On September 29, 1939, the Soviet Union concluded a mutual assistance pact with Esthonia which was implemented by the leasing of strategic bases on Esthonian islands dominating the Gulf of Finland and the Gulf of Riga.
Thus in the midst of a dangerous war situation the Soviet Union moved to preserve peace in the Eastern Baltic and end long standing menaces to the security of its second largest city and one of its chief industrial areas. This pact was followed by similar pacts with Latvia and Lithuania. In the pact with the' latter state, which unlike the other Baltic states had never participated in anti-Soviet attacks, the Soviet Union ceded the city and district of Vilno, ancient Lithuanian capital, seized from Lithuania by Poland.
