ATTITUDE TO THE WEST
The rebellion in Hungary in 1956 hated the restrictions which Rakosi Communism imposed. In Czechoslovakia, 1968, the rebellion criticized the wholeCommunism as it partially failed itself, no matter who the leaders were. Both rebellions felt bitter about losing freedom of speech, living in fear of the secret police, mainly.
But, in Czechoslovakia,the rebels were still communist, just that they believed that it was not necessary to have so many restrictions, (like censorship, loss of freedom of speech, and activities of secret police).
Inhungary, the rebellions changed from Communism to Capitalism. Nagy’s new government would hold free elections, create impartial courts, restore farmland to private ownership, and try to leave the WarsawPact and declare Hungary neutral in the Cold War. They no longer wanted no more Soviet army in Hungary.
WHY THE SOVIET UNION INTERVENED
The Soviet Union intervened on Hungary because Hungary was goingto leave the Warsaw Pact. This meant a rupture in the pact between Communists against hypothetical attacks coming from the West, Capitalist side of Germany, so Communism would become weaker. The sameyear, to prevent this, Khrushchev sent thousands of Soviet troops and tanks into Budapest.
The Soviet Union intervenes on Czechoslovakia not because they wanted to resign from the Warsaw Pact, butbecause the USSR was worried that the new ideas in Czechoslovakia might spread to other countries in Eastern Europe. So the new leader of the USSR, Brezhnev, tried to slow Dubcek down (the rebel’sleader).
HOW EACH STATE REPONDED TO SOVIET INTERVENTION
Hungary, didn’t doubt going to war with the USSR. They didn’t give in, unlike Poland. After two weeks, there were 3000 Hungarians officially, and7000-8000 Russians killed. However, another 200 000 Hungarians escaped to Austria from the Communist forces.
Czechoslovakia, as it now permitted freedom of speech, and the Social Democratic Party...
