    Again? Hungary was never part of Russia.

    Did you mean the Soviet Union? Well, they were not part of that either.

      How was Hungary not part of the soviet union? Why did they get invaded by tanks days after they starded a revolt against the soviet union?

        Hungary was part of the Warsaw Pact, but never part of the USSR.

          Ok, you are correct on that, my mistake.

          I would still argue that no member of that pact had any authority, only the Soviet Union, so its a formality to say Hungary wasnt part of the Soviet Union, even since most policies came from the Soviets.

      I suspect if I had said Soviet Union, you would have responded with “but that doesn’t exist anymore.” Point still stands.
