This details the chronology of anti-Gypsy persecution in Romania (of note are the firebombings, the lynchings, the beatings and the formation of a group called "gypsy skinners", a neo-nazi anti-gypsy violence group). But an interesting clause was found here:
Sep 1992 Germany plans to deport the large number of Romanians, about 60% of whom are Gypsies (reports of the actual number of Romanians in Germany range from 43,000 to 135,000). It later signs an accord with Romania to facilitate this deportation and actually begins deporting Romanians in November.
Seriously, Germany? You'd think that after their little episode with the genocide of gypsies (under 1 million gypsies were killed in the Holocaust) they would try to prevent anti-Gypsy violence. It's a pity that even the nation that has supposedly come down the hardest against genocide and racial hatred is participating in the same mass murder they engaged in a half-century ago.
