Though the immediate concern was the fate of Imre Nagy, the reform communist leader of the Hungarian Revolution, who had fled to the Yugoslav embassy in Budapest, the documents make clear that both Moscow and Belgrade were aware that more fundamental issues in the Soviet-Yugoslav relationship were at stake.
During the conversations at Brioni, it was stipulated that Imre Nagy and the others could improve the position of the new revolutionary worker-peasant government if in one way or another they announced their intention to assist this government or, at the least, not to speak out against it.
It is true that, during our conversations at Brioni, we agreed on the assessment that the weakness of Imre Nagy's government and the series of concessions made by that government to reactionary forces led to the risk of the destruction of the existing socialist achievements in Hungary.

        Social pressures had been building in Hungary since the spring of 1955, when the reformist prime minister Imre Nagy was dislodged by the old-line Stalinist leader Matyas Rakosi, who had been forced to cede that post to Nagy in mid-1953.
 Several months before the article went to press, Imre Pozsgay and other top officials in the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party had publicly declared that the events of 1956 were a "popular uprising against an oligarchical regime that was humiliating the nation."
 The HWP Politburo had tried to curb popular ferment by readmitting Imre Nagy into the party on 13 October, but that step, if anything, merely emboldened the regime's opponents.

 Public Sculpture and the Hungarian Revolution of 1956
I will examine the role that public monuments played in the attempt to establish an official version of the uprising after its defeat following the intervention of Soviet troops on 4 November, the arrest and subsequent execution of the revolutionary leader Imre Nagy, and his replacement with the Soviet-backed communist regime of János Kádár.
The ceremonial reburial of Imre Nagy on 16 June 1989 represented a reversal of the previously dominant official version according to which the events of 1956 constituted a ‘counter-revolution’, and was followed within weeks by the death of Imre Nagy’s usurper and executioner, János Kádár, who had ruled Hungary from November 1956 to May 1988.
However, the speed of events and the bloody conclusion to the Hungarian Revolution have left the origins and exact details of the destruction of the statue shrouded in mystery.

 Maracz: Hungarian Revival
In August 1989, a summit was called between the Hungarian party leader Karoly Grosz and the Rumanian dictator Ceausescu because of the tension being generated by the Hungarian refugees and the plans to flatten Hungarian villages in Transylvania.
At the same time, other Transylvanian Hungarians labelled as 'moderates' were pushed forward, the same representatives that were later to become the 'Neptun trio' and who would later negotiate in secret with Rumanian leaders without receiving a mandate from the RMDSZ.
The partner-nation concept was conceived by Imre Borbely, RMDSZ member of parliament, who introduced the idea at his party's first national congress in Marosvsarhely.
