Political, Economic, and Military Cooperation between Romania and the Successor States of Former British Rhodesia (Zambia and Zimbabwe) between 1970 and 1989
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Despite a rich international bibliography dedicated to the fight for national independence of African states and their evolution in the postcolonial period, the contribution of the Romanian state to the achievement of this important objective is completely neglected. An interesting chapter for our national history, little known to the public, is the military and economic collaboration of Romania with the successor states of the former British provinces of North and South Rhodesia, the current states of Zambia and Zimbabwe. That financially risky approach had all the chances to become a viable project to position Romania among the states with influence on the African continent.
