Szabadság szerelem/Children of Glory Conflict scene English sub PART3

On 1 November,
Imre Nagy received reports that Soviet forces had entered Hungary from the east and were moving towards Budapest.
Nagy sought and received assurances from Soviet ambassador Yuri Andropov that the Soviet Union would not invade, although Andropov knew otherwise.
The Cabinet, with János Kádár in agreement, declared Hungary's neutrality, withdrew from the Warsaw Pact, and requested assistance from the diplomatic corps in Budapest and
the UN Secretary-General to defend Hungary's neutrality.
Ambassador Andropov was asked to inform his government that
Hungary would begin negotiations on the removal of Soviet forces immediately.

On 3 November,
a Hungarian delegation led by the Minister of Defense Pál Maléter were invited to attend negotiations on Soviet withdrawal at the Soviet Military Command at Tököl, near Budapest.
At around midnight that evening, General Ivan Serov,
Chief of the Soviet Security Police (NKVD) ordered the arrest of the Hungarian delegation,
and the next day, the Soviet army again attacked Budapest.

At 6:00 am on 4 November,
in the town of Szolnok, János Kádár proclaimed the
"Hungarian Revolutionary Worker-Peasant Government".
His statement declared
"We must put an end to the excesses of the counter-revolutionary elements.
The hour for action has sounded. We are going to defend the interest of the workers and peasants and the achievements of the people's democracy."
Later that evening, Kádár called upon "the faithful fighters of the true cause of socialism"
to come out of hiding and take up arms.
However, Hungarian support did not materialize;
the fighting did not take on the character of an internally divisive civil war, but rather,
in the words of a United Nations report,
that of
"a well-equipped foreign army crushing by overwhelming force a national movement and eliminating the Government."

By 8:00 am organised defence of the city evaporated after the radio station was seized,
and many defenders fell back to fortified positions.
The strongest of these fortified positions was Corvin alley (Corvin köz),
under the command of Gergely Pongrátz.
[Full citation needed] Hungarian civilians bore the brunt of the fighting,
as Soviet troops spared little effort to differentiate military from civilian targets.
For this reason, Soviet tanks often crept along main roads firing indiscriminately into buildings.
Hungarian resistance was strongest in the industrial areas of Budapest,
which were heavily targeted by Soviet artillery and air strikes.
The last pocket of resistance called for ceasefire on 10 November.
Over 2,500 Hungarians and 722 Soviet troops had been killed and thousands more were wounded.

Nagy was executed.

On June 16, 1989, the 30th anniversary of his execution,
Imre Nagy's body was reburied with full honors.
The Republic of Hungary was declared in 1989 on the 33rd anniversary of the Revolution,
and 23 October is now a Hungarian national holiday.
