Marriages
Voronin married Quisling in August 1922 in Kharkiv, and then travelled to Moscow for the issuing of documents at the Norwegian legation. They made a short trip to Norway, then returned to Kharkiv, where Quisling met and married Maria Pasetchnikova in 1923. In the summer of 1924, the three traveled together to Norway. Alexandra Voronin subsequently left Norway to live with an aunt in Nice and never returned. Voronin later claimed to have divorced Quisling in 1924. In 1929, contact broke off between Quisling and Voronin.
