Scrisoare inedită din 1947: Reacția exilului românesc după arestarea lui Iuliu Maniu și Ion Mihalache

A document from the Romanian National Archives highlights the reactions of Romanian diplomats in exile following the Tămădău incident in July 1947. Former Foreign Minister Grigore Gafencu's letter reveals efforts to denounce the suppression of democratic opposition in Romania. Key figures like Gafencu and Viorel Tilea initiated diplomatic actions to alert Western powers about the political situation. They sent similar memoranda to British and American governments, urging intervention against violations of political agreements. Concurrently, exiles organized a meeting with Western journalists to present information on Romania's political climate. The document also notes the Communist regime's propaganda against opposition leaders, portraying them negatively in the press.
