The Central Committee of Russian Communist Party (bolsheviks) (RCP(b)) issued an order "to find a way of solving the complicated question of Eastern Siberia, trying to avoid a military conflict with Japan".

During negotiations with the Revolution Military Council of the Red 5th Army in January 1920, the Political Center offered to organize a buffer republic in the Far East region with Irkutsk as its capital.

In the middle of January a strong group of cooperative merchants and Zemstvo members organized itself in Vladivostok to oppose the Rozanov's dictatorship.

On January, 26, after a fierce battle, the White Guards managed to surround the Jager Battalion, disarm it and send it to Russky Island, but this could not prevent the following events.

For the organization of the buffer state, the Central Committee of RCP(b) created on March, 3, the Dal'biuro (Russian: Дальбюро, an abbreviation of "Дальневосточное бюро" - "Bureau for Far East").

To stop the spontaneous sovietizing of the Maritime Territory, the Siberian Revolution Committee sent a message (transferred by Kushnarev, who returned from Moscow): "There is a process of organizing a government in Verkhneudinsk; Alexander Krasnoshchyokov is our representative there.

In this situation the Dal'biuro decided on March 29, to stop the sovietizing of the Maritime Territory and to offer the Regional Zemstvo Administration to expand its authority by a special law over the whole Russian Far East.

On March 31, the Zemstvo issued such a declaration and organized an election for a People's Assembly on the basis of universal, equal and direct suffrage by secret ballot.

Grigory Semyonov - head of Russia Eastern Outskirts - and N.P.Pumpianskij - representative of Maritime Territory government - met at Manzhouli railway station, but couldn't agree about the unification.

A new Provisional Priamurye Government would be created between May 27, 1921 and October 25, 1922 in the Maritime Territory after a coup by White forces supported by the Japanese Army.
