Din activitatea Comisiei „Roggeri-Altenburg” în Bihor

  • Subiect: From the activity of the Commission „Roggeri-Altenburg” in Bihor Romania's obligation, through the Vienna Dictate, to cede to Hungary a large part of Transylvania's territory – established by the arbitrary will of the Axis powers and, in particular, of Hitler himself, interested in keeping the two states in a permanent tension in order to he could dominate them better – opened a black page in their history, marked by a series of atrocities. Many of these were triggered by the revengeful beginnings of some former landowners who returned to the localities abandoned after the Great Union Act of 1918. However, a real campaign was carried out by the authorities installed after September 6, 1940 against the Romanian population from Northern Transylvania. After Ion Antonescu came to power, the Romanian government undertook a series of steps to form and urgently send a joint German-Italian commission to Transylvania to investigate the mass crimes committed by Hungarians and the phenomenon of Romanian exodus under pressure from the Horthy administration. Finally, the Italian government agreed with the German government that a joint commission would soon be set up under the leadership of plenipotentiary ministers Roggeri and Altenburg, which would travel to Transylvania. From those arbitrary crimes committed at that time and brought to the attention of the commission, we stopped at the situation in North Bihor – the part ceded by Dictate –, but also parts of the neighboring counties: Sălaj, Sătmar, Cluj. Unfortunately, the balance sheet of the Romanian efforts indicated a failure on the line of improving the fate of the Transylvanian Romanians, because the dialogue partners, Italians and Germans, were deaf and blind to the presented evidence.
