Refutes all accusations from the USSR that the United States planned the mass uprising of the Hungarian people and that it was a counter-revolution rather than a spontaneous uprising. The truth is that the Hungarian government had to call for help from Soviet army troops, it is strange that it did not call for the Hungarian army, a sizeable military force. It is clear throughout the years of Soviet rule in Hungary, the regime was unable to arm Hungarians to handle an anti-Soviet mobilization in Budapest.
