Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
The Hungarian Revolution occurred in 1956 after a speech of February 1956 by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev where he denounced the repression of Stalin's regime and denounced Stalin's cult of the personality in a secret speech delivered to the Soviet Communist congress, which was leaked to the west by the Israeli intelligence agency.
The speech was an indication to retreat from the Stalinist policies and repression of the past with peaceful coexistence with the West
The repercussions of this speech leads to the Hungarian Revolution which started in 1956, which lead to the death of thousands of Hungarian and nearly a quarter-million citizen who fled the country as a result of the Soviet brutal effort to put an end to the Revolution.
