Cold War: 1963-1969 - The Invasion Of Czechoslovakia

1 .
Who was the Soviet choice of Czechoslovak Party Secretary after the invasion?

The new reforms, particularly relaxation of censorship, permission to travel abroad and the right to create political parties other than the Communists, alarmed the USSR and its other allies
