    Between 1947-1949, the diplomatic missions of Romania and the United States struggled to adapt to the new realities created by the Cold War, as each side was surprised by the rapid changes in Eastern Europe. While Romania sent new diplomats to gain international experience, American diplomats felt outrun by the complexity of events. The diplomatic relationships between the two countries remained in a state of "warm hostility" that was more or less polite, frozen in an unfriendly position until Stalin's death. For the United States, Romania provided a view of how Soviet methods worked in a satellite state, while Romania saw its relations with the U.S. as a second Cold War with original, dramatic elements.

    COLD WAR DIPLOMACY. UNITED STATES AND ROMANIA IN 1949


    (Summary)

    Between 1947-1949 the diplomatic missions of Romania and USA had a period of intriguing
    adaptation to the new realities. Until then they had seem unable to manage the new situations
    created by the Cold War. Sending new people in diplomacy, the Romanians were attending an
    international apprenticeship school. On the other hand, the diplomats of the USA were taken by
    surprise and were really outrun by the rapidity and complexity of the events in the Eastern
    Europe.
    Being in some kind of warm hostility atmosphere at the end of the 40s, the diplomatic
    relationships had been frozen in an inimical position which was more or less polite, until Stalins
    death. It seems that in this period, Romania had an original image for the United States either
    because it was the first state where they could observe the practical soviet methods working in a
    Moscow satellite, or because it was a subordinate that seemed to be against the West even more
    than its master. Although they were part of the global East-West dispute, the relations between
    the USA and PRR were seen especially by Bucharest, and sometimes by Washington, as being a
    second Cold War, a war that doubled the first one, but which sometimes presented original,
    dramatic elements. Anyway, there is a difference of perception and, consequently, what was, for
    the Americans, a different, strange and annoying way of approaching external affairs, had become
    for the Romanians a proud fight for assuring international survival.
