The Danube Commission
Abstract
The Danube Commission is an international intergovernmental organization, set up by the
Convention regarding the regime of navigation on the Danube signed in Belgrade on 18 August 1948.
As a result of the Danube River Conference of 1948, the river system was divided into three
administrations — the regular River Commission (which had existed in one form or another since 1856), a bilateral Romania-USSR administration between Braila and the mouth of the Sulina channel, and a bilateral Romania-Yugoslavia administration at the Iron Gate. Both of the latter were technically under the control of the main commission, members of which were — at the beginning — Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Ukraine, the USSR, and Yugoslavia.
