Summary/Abstract: The agreements between the Allies at Tehran, Moscow and Yalta gave Russia the initiative in concluding the treaties with the East European countries. Thereby, the Soviet political and military authority became the decisive factor of the implementation of communism in the Eastern countries. Significant for the subordination policy led by Russia is the way in which it managed to handle the national issues and the territorial disputes. From this point of view, the study presents the role played by General Susaikov, the head of the Allied Control Commission in Romania, in the Romanian-Hungarian disputes in the period 1945-1947.
