This work was conceived during my research stay at Friedrich Schiller University Jena in 2019 on an Erasmus+ Staff Mobility Grant. I am grateful to Professor Mikulas Fabry for his extensive and valuable comments on an earlier version of this Article. I have also benefited from comments by participants of the 4th Annual Conterence of the Central and Eastern European Network of Legal Scholars held at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow. Deep thanks as well to the editors of the Chicago Journal of International Law for their outstanding work. Views, omissions, and errors are, of course, my own.

This Article seeks to determine which scholarly approach regarding de jure and de facto recognition is most consistent with the U.S.’s actual attitude toward the Baltic annexation.
