  • Prague Spring

  • Berlin Blockade

  • Cuban Missile Crisis

Answer

The Prague Spring, a period of political liberalization in Czechoslovakia, is closely associated with Alexander Dubček. Dubček, as the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, initiated a series of reforms aimed at fostering greater freedom of speech, the press, and political participation. These reforms challenged the existing Soviet-dominated political system and ultimately led to the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia, which crushed the Prague Spring movement.
