On January 20, 1925, the Japanese finally signed a Peace Treaty with the Soviet Union and agreed to withdraw from North Sakhalin in exchange for mining concessions. Over the next months, the Soviets would suppress the remaining resistance in Siberia. After claiming about 15 million lives, the Russian Civil War was effectively at an end.
Representatives of the Soviet Union aboard the Krasny Oktyabr landed in Wrangel Island, forcibly removing the American and 13 Inuit colonists (one of which had been born on the island). The settlers were taken to Vladivostok, from where they returned to Alaska via China and Japan. In 1926, the government of the Soviet Union reaffirmed the Tsarist claim to sovereignty over Wrangel Island.
