Summary/Abstract: Some of the personal files of the Romanian diplomats which are found at the Archive of the Foreign Ministry of Romania contain also pieces of their private correspondence. The file of the Romanian diplomat George Cretzianu came into possession of the institution as a donation made by the diplomat’s son, Radu, in June 1973.
