Well I was trying to phrase it gently! (He didn't continue in office after his illegal execution ...) Anyway, definitely a heroic giant and one of the great leaders of 20th century Europe.
I found a video on YouTube I had not seen in many years - of CeauÅescu addressing the people of the Rumanian farmers and workers paradise urging them into internationalist solidarity with the Czechs and Slovaks on the occasion of the unfortunate intervention of the Friendship Pact into Prague in 1968. Such courage and solidarity would never be found in the modern toilet called the "European Union."
