Context: The Romanian Communist Party (Romanian: "", PCR) was a communist party in Romania. Successor to the pro-Bolshevik wing of the Socialist Party of Romania, it gave ideological endorsement to communist revolution and the disestablishment of Greater Romania. The PCR was a minor and illegal grouping for much of the interwar period, and submitted to direct Comintern control. During the 1930s, most of its activists were imprisoned or took refuge in the Soviet Union, which led to the creation of separate and competing factions until the 1950s. The Communist Party emerged as a powerful actor on the Romanian political scene in August 1944, when it became involved in the royal coup that toppled the pro-Nazi government of Ion Antonescu. With support from Soviet occupation forces, the PCR was able to force King Michael I into exile, and establish undisguised Communist rule in 1948. From then until 1989, it was for all intents and purposes the only legally permitted party in the country., Vasile Milea ( 1 January 1927 , Lereti , Arge -- 22 December 1989 ) was Nicolae Ceauescu 's minister of defense during the Romanian Revolution of 1989 and was involved in the reprisal phase of the revolution that caused the deaths of 162 people . On 22 December 1989 , Ceauescu sacked him for not ordering his men to fire on the demonstrators who 'd taken to the streets of Bucharest a day earlier . According to the official account , Ceauescu considered this an act of treason , and Milea committed suicide shortly afterward . However , several members of his family claim that he was killed on the orders of Ceauescu . Milea was already in severe disfavour for sending troops to quell the uprising in Timioara without ammunition . Whatever the case , Milea 's death caused the rank - and - file soldiers to go over almost en masse to the revolution , effectively ending Communist rule in Romania . A report from 2005 after a full investigation including a postmortem concludes that Milea killed himself using the weapon of one of his attendants . It seems that he only tried to get incapacitated in order to be relieved from office . But the bullet hit an artery and he died soon afterwards ., The Romanian Revolution was a period of violent civil unrest in Romania in December 1989 and part of the Revolutions of 1989 that occurred in several countries. The Romanian Revolution started in the city of Timioara and soon spread throughout the country, ultimately culminating in the show trial and execution of longtime Communist leader Nicolae Ceauescu, and the end of 42 years of Communist rule in Romania. It was also the last removal of a Communist government in a Warsaw Pact country during the events of 1989, and the only one that violently overthrew a country's government and executed its leader., Romania is a sovereign state located in Southeastern Europe. It borders the Black Sea, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Hungary, Serbia, and Moldova. It has an area of and a temperate-continental climate. With 19.94 million inhabitants, the country is the seventh-most-populous member state of the European Union. The capital and largest city, Bucharest, with its 1,883,425 inhabitants is the sixth-largest city in the EU., Nicolae Ceauescu (26 January 1918  25 December 1989) was a Romanian Communist politician. He was general secretary of the Romanian Communist Party from 1965 to 1989, and as such was the country's second and last Communist leader. He was also the country's head of state from 1967 to 1989., The Warsaw Pact, formally the Treaty of Friendship, Co-operation, and Mutual Assistance and sometimes, informally, WarPac. was a collective defense treaty among the Soviet Union and seven other Soviet satellite states in Central and Eastern Europe in existence during the Cold War. The Warsaw Pact was the military complement to the Council for Mutual Economic Assistance (CoMEcon), the regional economic organization for the communist states of Central and Eastern Europe. The Warsaw Pact was created in reaction to the integration of West Germany into NATO in 1955 per the London and Paris Conferences of 1954, but it is also considered to have been motivated by Soviet desires to maintain control over military forces in Central and Eastern Europe., Subject: vasile milea, Relation: member_of_political_party, Options: (A) romanian communist party (B) socialist party (C) union
