Life for Hungary. Admiral Miklosh Khorty. Memoirs. 1920-1944. Khorta M.

Admiral Nicholas Khorty served the regent of the Kingdom of Hungary from March 1, 1920 to October 15, 1944. Performing the duties of the regent, Horthy tried to pursue a policy of restoring Hungary in its former borders, to the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This policy ultimately led him to an alliance with Hitler. As a result, Hungary regained part of its original lands in Serbia, Croatia, Slovakia and Romania. But it was necessary to pay for this, and Hungarian formations went to the Eastern Front, where they suffered significant losses. Soon, Khorty understood the inevitability of the defeat of the troops of the Axis countries and began secret negotiations with the allies. However, he was not able to withdraw the country out of the war. The war ended for Hungary only with the advent of Soviet troops, which Horty considered enemies and invaders.
