Acordul de procentaj Churchill-Stalin in documentele sovietice
The Churchill-Stalin Percentages Agreement in Soviet Documents

Summary/Abstract: A major event marking the relations within the Great Alliance and especially the Soviet-British ones, the Percentages Agreement – under which Central and Eastern Europe were assigned to the Soviet sphere of influence – was strongly negated by Soviet historiography, being only acknowledged in 1989. The “art of disposing of others,” as Andre Fontaine called it in a chapter of his History of the Cold War, appears in the Soviet shorthand account of the conversation during the Churchill-Stalin meeting on October 9, 1944. The article makes available to Romanian specialists, for the first time as far as we know, the full text of the Soviet shorthand minutes of the two meetings on October 9 and 10, 1944, when the Soviet and British delegations debated the Percentages Agreement and its implementation in Central and Southeastern Europe.
