About the "Romanian invasion"

[edit]

Some secondary sources relate a "Romanian invasion" but the primary ones described by Robert Magocsi attested the romanian troops under the command of the general Iacob Zadik, entering 1918 and 1919 in Bucovina and south Poland, not in the Hutsul Republic. This point must be verified please. On the other hand, the romanian troops fight against the Hutsul ones only in Sighetu Marmației and the Hutsul Republic fall down under a soviet hungarian offensive (see Robert Magocsi, The Ruthenian Decision to Unite with Czechoslovakia: Slavic Review 34 (2): 1975, p.372). --Julieta39 (talk) 14:03, 30 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

How could Hungarians even get to Yasinia in June 1919? Tiszántúl was already under Romanian control. To reach Yasinia, the Hungarian red army would have to advance 200km from their main offensive (during the Northern Campaign), re-taking all of Carpathean Ruthenia, including Uzhgorod and Mukachevo. Is there any evidence for such an offensive? Or how in the world did Hungarians get there?
As I see it, the claim that Hungarians ended the republic is simply impossible, unless there is a huge Hungarian campaign completely forgotten. Vauia Rex (talk) 08:34, 2 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the Magocsi text states at p.372
"This "miniature state," administered by a forty-two member elected council and a four-man government, existed until June 11, 1919, when Rumanian troops occupied the area"
