Summary/Abstract: At the end of the Second World War, over 60 000 Germans from Romania were deportated to Soviet Union, for hard labour. In a synthetic manner the study emphasizes the political context of that period, the mechanisms of the decision, and the attitude of the Romanian authorities, how the measure was implemented. The authors present the testimonies of two German women, Ecaterina Coman şi Matilda Jica, born in Banat, deportated to USSR, between 1945 and 1949.
