It's not the religion, but the ethnicity that actually counts.

The father of Petre 'Pedro' Roman, the politician (who apparently doesn't have a single drop of Rumanian blood in his veins smile.gif ).

Valter Roman was a Communist activist who fought in Spain in the Republican International Brigades. He then took refuge in the USSR after the Nationalists won. He was part of the exiled wing of the Romanian Communsit Party (with Ana Pauker, Vasile Luca etc) and during the war was very active in the propaganda offensive among the Romanian POWs. He was, IIRC, teh chief political officer of the second Soviet sponsored Romanian-volunteer division: the Horia, Closca si Crisan Division. He was the father of 1990-91 Romanian prime minister Petre Roman.

As for Romanian units in the Spanish Civil War, I repeat: there were none as far as I know. The most famous Romanian participation in that war was the Mota group (several members of the Iron Guard), but it wasn't big enough to man a company, much less a regiment.

Markó Béla is an [ethnic] Hungarian politician from Rumania biggrin.gif [otherwise why would he fight for the right of Hungarians from Rumania? I am not aware Petre Roman to fight for the rights of Jewish or Spanish minorities from Rumania :wink: ]
