Omanian Diplomats in the Scandinavian Countries R (1916-1947)
Revista Română de Studii Baltice și Nordice / The Romanian Journal for Baltic and Nordic Studies, ISSN 2067-1725, Vol. 6, Issue 2 (2014): pp. 147-167 OMANIAN DIPLOMATS IN THE SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIES R (1916-1947) Adrian Vițalaru ‘Alexandru Ioan Cuza’ University of Iassy, Faculty of History, E-mail: [email protected] Acknowledgements This paper is based on the presentation made at the Fifth international conference on Baltic and Nordic Studies in Romania A piece of culture, a culture of peace, re-imaging European communities in the North Sea, Baltic Sea and Black Sea regions, hosted by Valahia University of Târgovişte and the Romanian Association for Baltic and Nordic Studies, August 17-19, 2014. Supported by EEA Grants, contract no 4/22.07.2014. This work was cofinaced from the European Social Fund through Sectoral Operational Programme Human Resources Development 2007-2013, project number POSDRU/159/1.5/S/140863, Competitive Researchers in Europe in the Field of Humanities and Socio-Economic Sciences. A Multi-regional Research Network. Abstract: The main object of the present paper is to introduce the diplomats sent to represent the Romanian state in Stockholm, Copenhagen, Helsinki and Oslo, as heads of diplomatic missions. Did they have professional or human connections with the Nordic states? Were they moved from one legation in the Scandinavian world to another? In other words, were they specialists in Scandinavian matters? Were the Nordic states a professional attraction /a trampoline in the career of Romanian diplomats or were they `quiet` diplomatic missions, marginal in importance, less attractive to diplomats? In my attempt to provide an answer to these questions I found that most of those who took turns as head of legation in the Scandinavian countries had not previously been trained at the same missions. -

Romania and Finland in the Aftermath of the Operation Barbarossa (1941)

It is conceived as an in-depth analysis of the Romanian-Finnish relations based on the criticism of archival sources discovered in the Romanian, Finnish and British archives. Becoming “allies without alliance” almost overnight, the relations between the two countries acknowledged a quick shift from low profile bonds to an agreement based on a combination of balance of power and joint action. The aim was to remove the threat Russia was posing to the two countries and to increase their influence at a peace conference to be open following the expected defeat of their big neighbour. Romania was the advocate of closer ties between the two countries keeping in line with its search for influence rather than autonomy in its foreign relations, while Finland was more prudent consistent with its choice for autonomy rather than influence. Rezumat: Acest studiu descrie relaţiile dintre două state mici şi mijlocii care s-au alăturat atacului german împotriva Uniunii Sovietice într-o încercare de a-şi recâştiga teritoriile pierdute în favoarea acestei mari puteri răsăritene vecine în anul 1940. -

Eram poate prea tânăr ca să mă pot apropia de el, era prea departe de Bucureşti, exilat într-o chilie a Bibliotecii Universitare din Cluj, unde supravieţuia necunoscut de tinerele generaţii; îndeplinea o obligaţie mult sub pregătirea sa şi dimensiunea de enciclopedist, dar continua să gândească şi să scrie. Asemenea celor născuţi în anii ’40, aveam să aflăm despre cel mai mare filosof român al secolului 20 abia în a doua jumătate a anilor ’60. Pas cu pas, ca atâţia alţii, i-am parcurs unele din cărţi, nu cu uşurinţă, căci pregătirea mea unidimensională era departe de a-i pătrunde gândirea şi opera. Eram însă bucuros că într-o etapă de oarecare deschidere i se lăsa lui Lucian Blaga posibilitatea să ajungă din nou la cititorii săi şi noi ne puteam împărtăşi din creaţia lui, fără frica de a fi pedepsiţi pentru accesul nepermis la „literatură subversivă―.

'A New Greater Romania'? Romanian Claims to the Serbian Banat in 19411
Central Europe, Vol. 3, No. 2, November 2005 ‘A NEW GREATER ROMANIA’? ROMANIAN CLAIMS TO THE SERBIAN BANAT IN 19411 Rebecca Ann Haynes University College London, School of Slavonic and East European Studies Introduction On the morning of April 6 1941 the Germans launched a Blitzkrieg attack on the kingdom of Yugoslavia. Within a week Belgrade had surrendered and the dismemberment of Yugoslavia began. Amongst the spoils of war was the Serbian (or Yugoslav) Banat. This was the western portion of the Banat (historically known as the Banat of Temesvár), relinquished by Hungary under the terms of the Treaty of Trianon in 1920. The Serbian Banat quickly became the object of rival territorial claims by the Reich’s Romanian and Hungarian allies. This article will argue that the Romanian government lay claim to the region, encouraged by growing nationalist sentiment both within Romania and in the Serbian Banat itself. It will further be argued that, whereas in the past the Romanian government had justified the possession of Romanian territory with reference to the Paris peace treaties and international law, the claim to the Serbian Banat represented the beginning of a policy which sought to justify the expan- sion of Romania on the basis of the ethnic principle. After all, the Serbian Banat had never been part of the Romanian state or of the Romanian principalities. Romanian foreign-policy makers were no longer concerned merely with protecting the country’s territorial integrity or with attempts to regain the territories lost in 1940 to the Soviet Union, Hungary and Bulgaria. The concept of a Romania based on the legality of the Paris peace treaties, as conceived of by Romanian foreign-policy makers in the 1920s and 1930s, was thus jettisoned in favour of ethnic expansionism. -

The workshop was titled “Multinational Operations, Alliances, and International Military Cooperation: Past and Fu- ture,” and its papers represent the official military history scholarship from eleven countries. Military cooperation and alliances have always been an important aspect of the study of military history, and the MHWG seminars reflect the strong scholarly cooperation among the group’s members. Annually for the past five years, representatives of the most prominent military history offices have gathered in these seminars to examine and discuss some particularly significant aspects of military history. In 2005 the participants focused on alliances and military cooperation, a topic of vital importance in an increasingly complex international environment.
