Summary/Abstract: Western historians agree, as Romanian ones do, that in Moscow, insofar as Romania was concerned, Britain and the US yielded to the Soviet Union. Consequently, what was decided in Moscow by the foreign ministers of the three major powers did not have a favourable impact on events in Romania. Actually, there was no way those decisions could favour Romania since they were implemented under Vyshinsky’s direct patronage. What they did, however, was temper in part, and for a brief period, the antidemocratic zeal of the Romanian communists, who soon after reverted to their actions against the Opposition parties.
