| Partly as a consequence of Kun's 133 days in power, the counter-revolutionary government of Regent Miklos Horthy was both anti-communist and anti-Semitic, communists and Jews being, in the traumatized minds of many Hungarians, interchangeable identities. Relying on archives located in Budapest, George Urban concluded that the RFE'S Hungarian service had not incited revolution or promised arms, although its maudlin and pugnacious rhetoric, drawn from the pre-war Horthy regime, had encouraged false hopes. On June 25, 1944, Pius XII sent an open telegram to Nicholas Horthy, the Regent of Hungary, urging him to stop the deportations of Jews. |
