The last days of Nicolae and Elena Ceausescu
14.99 €
Contemporaries and descendants accuse Nicolae Ceausescu of many sins: he took 1 billion dollars out of the country and deposited them in Swiss banks; he gave the rank of colonel of the national army to his favorite dog; he used golden faucets, bathtubs and toilets in his palace... The contrasting background to these accusations is the poverty of the Romanian people, which in the 1980s was noted even by not too pretentious Soviet tourists. At the same time, the only period in the history of the Romanian state since its foundation in 1859 when Romania was able to pursue an independent domestic and foreign policy was the reign of Ceausescu. Why did his compatriots not appreciate this achievement of the "genius of the Carpathians" and shot him together with his wife on December 25, 1989 in the courtyard of the army barracks in the town of Targoviste? Did the Ceausescu couple deserve such a fate? Were there other options for the development of events during the "December Revolution"? Could Nicolae and Elena Ceauşescu have avoided reprisals and saved themselves? These and other questions of contemporary Romanian history are the subject of this book, which is based on the analysis of numerous documents that are inaccessible to most Russian-speaking readers because of the language barrier.
