This could use much more specific citation. In particular, who were the "Some commentators" who "have suggested that the group was indeed acting on behalf of a foreign intelligence service"? - Jmabel | Talk 17:09, 30 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Done, altough on second thought this fragment isn't so convincing ( Troncotă, page 440, approximate translation).
"The Berne file has many obscure aspects. Some of them were noticed by the analysts of the South-East Research Group in Munich, as early as March and June 1955, in their reports for the West German Federal Foreign Ministry.[...] they considered that Beldeanu's request for the release of several individuals that were certainly dead was really just a <<tactical maneuver>> to justify the prolonged occupation of the embassy. Such an extension would have been needed to find what they were looking for, that is documents with the names of the communist <<moles>> infiltrated in the West who provided the information for the speedy capture of the teams parachuted in Romania in the previous years. <<It is certain - noted the German analysts - that Bucharest was informed from the West and that the Romanian embassy in Berne was involved in this action ( of capturing the parachuted agents ).>>, and in its documents one could have found the names of the sources."

That sounds to me like enough to justify the remark. - Jmabel | Talk 00:09, 8 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
