A Report of the Italian Legation in Bucharest (4 October 1948) Concerning the Situation of the Greek Catholics in Romania

  • TITLU în română: Un raport al legaţiei italiene la Bucureşti (4 octombrie 1948) cu privire la situaţia greco-catolicilor din România
  • Subiect: This study presents a document of the Italian Minister in Bucharest, which recounts the evolution of the religious situation in Romania, particularly of the Greek-Catholic Church, which was constrained by the communist authorities to convert to Orthodoxy. The document shows the steps that were taken, the statement of reconversion to Orthodoxy that was made in Cluj, on 1 October 1948, after many threats and pressures. At the same time, the Italian diplomat estimated that the pressures would continue to seek the dismantling of the Greek-Catholic Church in Romania, but deplored the fact that he would not be able to oppose this process because the Greek-Catholic clergy in Romania did not have the strength to resist it.
