STALINIZATION OF HUNGARY

Hungary in April War is over in Hungary. Unlike Germany, Budapest and Hungary is liberated by USSR alone. Hungarians living in Transylvania, Slovakia and Serbia are victims of awful atrocities at the end of the war. The Soviet Authorities take three actions first: 1. Find all Nazis and war criminals and punish then. 2. Reconstruct the Infrastructure in Russia with forced labour. 3. Execute land reforms. Rapes and plunder: All Hungarian families have some relative that suffered from the Red Armys march through Hungary during the winter / spring of (Zsuzsa's story). The Soviets are NOT greeted as liberators by the Hungarian population.
