Racconigi Bargain
Template:Short description Script error: No such module "Unsubst". Template:Events leading to World War I The Racconigi Bargain (Italian: Script error: No such module "Lang"., Russian: Script error: No such module "Lang"., also known in Russia as the Russo-Italian Agreement, Script error: No such module "Lang".) was a secret agreement between King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy and Tsar Nicholas II of the Russian Empire, concluded on 24 October 1909 at the Castle of Racconigi, in Italy.
Its terms included:
- If Russia or Italy concluded agreements concerning Eastern Europe with another power, the other party of the agreement would also participate in such new agreement.
- Italy recognised that Russian interests in the Turkish Straits should be controlled by Russia. In return, Russia recognised Italian interests in Tripoli and Cyrenaica.[1]
From Italy's point of view, the Racconigi Bargain facilitated Italy's preparations for the Italo-Turkish War two years later during which Italy conquered Tripoli and Cyrenaica.
