Excerpt from The Case for Bessarabia: A Collection of Documents on the Rumanian Occupation; With a Preface
The sixth one has a particular interest, as it shows that the refugees in Odessa do not at all remain isolated from their native country, which they have been obliged to leave. Those who remained in Bessarabia also raise their voice, somewhat naively, in order to tell the world how happy they are to find some com patriots who will have the hearing and will speak out their mind before the Great Tribunal of the Right and the Truth. It is to your members Of the Odessa Committee, they say, that we look for help, because we are bound hand and foot But they strongly believe that with such a committee as theirs in Odessa representing all political and national trends of thought in Bessarabia, from that of the private soldier to the former high Official, and having received their powers lawfully from the whole population of Bessarabia, it will be impossible for Rumania to delude the great Allied Powers. I draw particular attention to their conclusion as to the consequences of the wrong policy of Rumania to represent Bessarabia as already Rumanian ised (pages 56 Working against the feelings, the wishes and the interests of the great bulk of the population, this policy was bound to proceed by stifling all utterings Of a free political life in the country. This is practically a best summary to everything which is said and stated in our documents. (see quotation at the end of the Preface.)

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the turbulent period following the Russian Revolution, specifically exploring the annexation of Bessarabia by Romania in 1918. The author meticulously analyzes the circumstances surrounding the events leading up to the annexation, focusing on the actions and decisions of the Sfatul Tserey, Bessarabiaââ â¢s National Assembly. The book goes beyond simply recounting the historical events, offering an in-depth examination of the political and social dynamics at play. The author scrutinizes the legitimacy of the Sfatul Tsereyââ â¢s decisions, ultimately arguing that the annexation was not a true reflection of the Bessarabian people's wishes. He highlights the role of external forces, including the Romanian military and Allied Powers, in influencing the Sfatul Tserey's actions. The book serves as a powerful testament to the complexities of national self-determination and the potential for manipulation and coercion within a volatile historical context.
