- Abstract
The primary aim of the present study is to provide a point of reference for the counterintelligence and intelligence activities in Hungary concerning Romania, and to show that Hungarian state security has been collecting information on Hungarians in Romania since the early 1970s, and using it in various ways in cooperation with the foreign affairs apparatus. The “protagonist” of the case study is a III/II secret agent, a diplomat at the Hungarian Embassy in Bucharest, who, as a result of his activities over about twelve years, reported on political events in Romania and the situation of Hungarian intellectuals, but through the informant, the activities of the Romanian secret service were observed, from which the Hungarian foreign service obtained more nuanced information beyond the traditional intelligence gathering methods. In addition, with regard to the period indicated in the title, I have examined the parts of Géza Domokos’s surveillance dossiers compiled on the basis of Securitate observations that relate to this period, and in particular those that relate to contacts in Hungary.
