Summary/Abstract: In the 1990s the official state institution and the Moldovan catholic-church committed a succession of trespasses with the csángó communities. Here we can mention the census manipulation or the prevention of the Hungarian language teaching in schools. Oppositely to these the Moldovan Csángó-Hungarian Association protested several times at both Romanian and International forums. There were published a several articles about the violent assimilation in the West European media. The European Council and the FUEV (FUEN, Federal Union of European Nationalities) in July 1999 jointly sent an investigation committee to Moldova to examine the csángó population’s situation. On this journey the author took part as an expert, the following study was born from the journeys experiences.
