Artist description
On October 23, 1956, after enduring nearly ten years of Communist terror by secret police and Soviet agents, Hungarian students and workers took to the streets of Budapest in demonstrations against Soviet domination and Communist rule. Within days, the uprising escalated into a full-scale national revolt, and the Hungarian government fell into chaos. When Hungarian Premier Imre Nagy joined the anti-Communist revolution, his minister Janos Kadar responded by forming a counter-regime, and asked the U.S.S.R. to intervene. On November 4, a massive Soviet force of 200,000 troops and 2,500 tanks entered Hungary. U.S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., called an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council to protest the Soviet invasion, but Britain and France, embroiled in the Suez Crisis, chose not to support the U.S. resolutions. Nearly 200,000 Hungarians fled the country and thousands of people were arrested, killed, or executed, including Premier Nagy, before the Hungarian uprising was finally suppressed. |
