Cum își construia Dinamo relațiile cu arbitrii străini în comunism

A file from the National Council for the Study of Securitate Archives reveals how Dinamo organized protocols for foreign referees during communist times. The club sought to ensure friendly relations with referees through lavish meals, gifts, and other incentives. The file details the 1981 UEFA Cup match between Dinamo and Levski Sofia, highlighting the monitoring of Turkish referees by secret services. The referee Talat Tokat and his assistants were closely observed, with reports documenting their interactions with Dinamo officials. This practice of hosting referees was part of a broader strategy to build cordial relationships with foreign officials, as evidenced by the match's outcome and the secret service documents.
