Rákosi's governance style was most influenced by which Soviet leader?

  • Lenin

  • Trotsky

  • Stalin

  • Khrushchev

Answer

Certainly! Rákosi's governance style in Hungary closely mirrored that of Joseph Stalin in the Soviet Union. Similar to Stalin's iron grip on power, Rákosi relied on extensive surveillance, suppression of dissent, a cult of personality, and a command economy to maintain his authority and control over Hungary.
