yes
thanks for the answer and the link
it is terrible but it is better to know than to remain with blind periods

(and sorry to ask only about this period)

by the way i followed a link about appelfeld
for me he is the only image of the life my ancestors had there

is he born in czernovitz or in vijnitz as it seems in a paper ?

(that is less dark than my other questions)

yours

>> Due to a harsh romanization, implemented by the Romanian authorities, hand in hand with Nazi Germany in the 1930s, many - predominantly young - Jews from Bukovina left for Western European countries looking for new educational and professional perspectives; my father Julius Hauster f. i. went to Grenoble in France, his brother Maximilian, who perished in Auschwitz, went to Brussels in Belgium. Many of these expatriates, who subsequently lost their Romanian citizenship and usually didn’t get any protection against Nazi persecutions by their host countries (see Belgium), were deported to and perished in Auschwitz and/or other concentration/extermination camps.

>> The Jewish Virtual Library gets to the point: „According to the statistical table on the potential victims of the ‚Final Solution‘ introduced at the Wannsee Conference, 342,000 Romanian Jews were destined for this end. The German embassy in Bucharest conducted an intensive propaganda campaign through its journal, Bukarester Tageblatt [August 8, 1942], which announced ‚an overall European solution to the Jewish problem‘ and the deportation of Jews from Romania. On July 22, 1942, [Gustav] Richter [German official in charge for Jewish affairs in Romania] obtained Vice-Premier Mihai Antonescu’s agreement to begin the deportation of Jews to Poland [Belzec Extermination Camp] in September. However, as a result of the efforts of the clandestine Jewish leadership, foreign diplomatic pressure, and pressure by the papal nuncio, A. Cassulo, Ion Antonescu canceled the agreement.“

>> Although the chapter above (p. 75-81) is headlined "Romanian and German Plans to Eliminate the Jews from Regat and Southern Transylvania", the "Final Solution" as conceived by Adolf Eichmann and his aide Gustav Richter, included the entire Romanian Jewry, i. e. the Jews from Bukovina too! As I mentioned before, by a fraction of an inch...?!
