Yes, as usual, you are getting to heart of our discussion. For me too, the "simple" fact of an intervention is not sufficiant, the motivation behind it counts. I think, starting from the historical facts, additional researches may bring light into the relative darkness.
However, good to know, that Traian Popovici's role is undisputable, not contested by the historiography and not contested by Dr. Hartwig Cremers's article as well and that the honorary title "Righteous among the Nations"

was awarded to Dr. Traian Popovici with a very good reason.
