WASHINGTON, Dec. 31 (UPI) -- Hundreds of leaflets demanding Transylvania's independence were found on 28 December in Cluj, Mediafax reported. The leaflets were written in both Romanian and Hungarian. They called for "an independent and sovereign Transylvania" in which Romanians and Hungarians "can live in peace and mutual understanding." The leaflets claimed poverty in the region "is due to Bucharest" and stated that "we need neither Bucharest nor Moldavia nor Wallachia," on whose development Transylvanian resources are spent and whose bankrupt enterprises Transylvania is forced to support financially. "We want the old border along the Carpathian Mountains back," the leaflets stated, calling on Cluj residents to demonstrate on 31 December for the region's independence. Police have opened an investigation and the Greater Romania Party has accused the Hungarian Democratic Federation of Romania of being "behind this revisionist diversion." MS
