Interese economice şi politice la Gurile Dunării între 1936 şi 1940
Economic and Political Interests at Low Danube Mouths between 1936 and 1940

Summary/Abstract: The naval traffic between 1936 and 1940, at the confluence river-sea, faithfully showed the economical and political-strategical realities at Low Danube. Commercially speaking, along the maritime sector, there was a fierce competition between Italy, Great Britain and Germany. As Germany was favored by the international juncture and the geographical position, the dispute was solved in its favor. After enclosing Austria (March, 1939) the commercial flux of the goods to Germany was changed in favor of the river route. That is why almost 62,57 % of the total amounts transported on Danube were shipped by the German ships in 1940. Surprisingly, the position of France as great power and as member of the European Commission of Danube was insignificant from all points of view (importer and exporter at Low Danube or as naval traffic).
