THE ROMANIA-BULGARIA TERITORIAL INCONGRUITY AND ROMANIA’S RELATIONS WITH THE CENTRAL POWERS DURIND THE LONDON PEACE CONFERENCE (DECEMBER 1912-JANUARY

Summary/Abstract: The Romania-Bulgaria teritorial incongruity and Romania's relations with the Central Powers during the London Peace Conference (December 1912 - January 1913). The paper includes a thorough analysis of the Romanian-Bulgarian relations during the Peace Conference in London, where representatives of belligerent states, but also of the Great Powers, wanted to establish a new political-territorial configuration in South East Europe at the end of the First Balkan War. The author believes that during that period, depending on how the Great Powers approached, in terms of their interests, the territorial dispute between Romania and Bulgaria, Romania’s relations with the two political and military opposing groups, the Triple Alliance and the Entente, were established. Channeling his/her scientific approach to the analysis of Romania's relations with the Central Powers, the author concludes that, despite a tactical diplomatic opening towards the Entente Powers, Bucharest based its entire strategy to resolve the territorial dispute with Bulgaria, during the Peace Conference in London, on the support it was counting to get from Germany and Austria-Hungary.
