Summary/Abstract: Member of the group accused in 1952 of „right deviation” (together with Vasile Luca and Teohari Georgescu), Ana Pauker was treated differently from his fellows after Stalin’s death. She bennefited from the interest of her behalf by the soviet leadership, especially by Vyaceslav Molotov. This article presents the minutes of the Romanian Worker’s Party Political Bureau’s meeting on 11 May 1954. The talks show the willingness of the RWP leadership to grant Ana Pauker a special treatment: even though she was expelled from the party, it was decided not to prosecute her.
