Question
Answer the following question.
Mention one example to show that the thaw in the Cold War was partial.
Solution
The thaw in the Cold War was partial. This could easily be observed from the policy of Khrushchev. Sometimes, he followed conciliatory policy and sometimes a policy that seemed to threaten the Western Bloc. He did not show any interest in reducing Russian control over the satellite states. When the Hungarians revolted in Budapest against the Communist government, the movement was crushed by Russian tanks.
