The Hungarian Uprising showed the USSR would not tolerate rebellions against Communism Next country who tries to get independence is Czechoslovakia USSR control had kept Czech poorer than it should have been Protests against Communist Party 1968 – new leader of Communist Party Alexander Dubcek

Dubcek is liberal Has new ideas for Czech; Allowing political parties Freedom of religion Trade unions allowed End of press censorship Basically more freedom ‘The Prague Spring’ He assures Brezhnev (USSR leader) that Czech will not leave the Warsaw Pact (military alliance of Eastern European countries)

Czechs supported Dubcek, as did Yugoslavia and Romania USSR didn’t Scared of Czech leaving Warsaw Pact Scared other countries would want the same Soviets planned to invade Czechoslovakia Sent tanks By July 1968, 75,000 Soviet troops on Czech border

July – USSR ask Dubcek to change his policy He did not – he didn’t believe USSR would invade USSR apparently received a letter from Czech Communists asking for help Night of 20th August 1968, Soviet troops enter Czechoslovakia There were also troops from Poland, Bulgaria etc making it look like a Warsaw Pact invasion

Czechs did not resist – no point Got on with daily business Placed flowers on tanks and on soldiers Some small resistance Students destroying street names to confuse troops Anti-Soviet radio Dubcek arrested and force to sign a contract ending his reforms New leader – Gustav Hasak – pro-Soviet

Hungary and Czechoslovakia Similarities? Sick of USSR control Leaders – Nagy/Dubcek USSR military invasion No help from West Differences? Hungary started with riots Dubcek said he would stay in Warsaw Pact, Nagy did not Dubcek still communist, Nagy not Hungary fought back, Czechs did not Nagy killed, Dubcek was not Hungary lasted only a few days – Czech four months
