Summary/Abstract: At the Seventh (April) All-Russia Conference of the R.S.D.L.P.(B.), Lenin had given the peoples the right to self-determination and as a result Bessarabia could reunite with Romania in 1918. The USSR never acknowledged this unification. In January 1918, the US president launched the 14 points. In article 9 was stipulated the right of peoples to self-determination and, under these circumstances, Bucovina and Transylvania could unite with Romania. The Romanian-Russian relations have not progressed much and have been characterized by lack of confidence. The relations with the USA have progressed positively: Romania is a NATO member state, and the statements made at the signing of the Strategic Partnership for the 21st century between Romania and the United States of America (2011) confirm the fact that the long-term relation between the two states is good and developing.
