How were the rebellions in Poland and Hungary similar?

Answer
A

The Soviets responded with military force.
C
The leaders were severely punished.
D
The Soviets agreed to make limited concessions.

Explanation

In both Poland and Hungary, popular rebellions challenged Soviet control during the 1950s, and the Soviet Union responded by sending in military forces. Poland’s uprising led to some concessions, while Soviet troops crushed the Hungarian revolt. Therefore, the shared feature was the Soviet military response, not identical political outcomes.
