Why did usa send troops to Hungary in 1957-58

1 answer

The United States did not send troops to Hungary in 1957-58. The Hungarian Revolution of 1956 had occurred the previous year, when a popular uprising against the Soviet-backed government was brutally suppressed by the Soviet Union. While the United States provided moral support to the Hungarian people during the revolution, they did not intervene militarily. The Soviet Union maintained control over Hungary in the aftermath of the revolution.
