The World Jewish Restitution Organization recently filed papers in Romania to establish a foundation that will receive communal Jewish properties from the Romanian government, according to a WJRO official. Romania promised to return the properties, confiscated by the Nazis and the Communists, after the foundation was officially recognized, said Naphtali Lavie. A similar foundation is being established in Hungary for the return of communal property and looted artworks, Lavie added.
