Young Communist League of Estonia

Young Communist League of Estonia (in Estonian: Eestimaa Kommunistlik Noorsooühing, abbreviated EKNÜ) was the youth wing of the Communist Party of Estonia during the interbellum period.[1]

Activities & Organization

EKNÜ was working in a clandestine manner. It published Noor Proletaarlane (1921) and Noor Tööline (1922–1923).[2] There are other publications from the EKNÜ that were written by Kalju Tiro.[3] EKNÜ was a section of the Communist Youth International.[1] After the incorporation of Estonia into the Soviet Union on 6 August 1940,[4] EKNÜ merged into the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League (VLKSM).[5] The Estonian branch of VLKSM had the name 'Leninist Young Communist League of Estonia' (Eestimaa Leninlik Kommunistlik Noorsooühing, ELKNÜ).[5]

gollark: This seems like one of those... noncentral things, where it's possibly technically accurate but brings inaccurate connotations from the words.
