Fresh materials from the former Soviet Foreign Ministry Archives concerning attitudes & policies in Prague, Budapest, & Moscow in the second half of the 1940s reveal that Moscow regarded the settlement of the question of the Hungarian minorities through the prism of promoting the political interests of the Communists in Hungary & Czechoslovakia. Initially, in 1945, the Soviet leaders favored the idea of the deportation of the Germans & Hungarians from Czechoslovakia with the aim of establishing Czechoslovakia as a state of two ethnically related Slavic peoples. At the beginning of the 1950s they changed their position: their aim became the consolidation of the Soviet bloc. The anti-Hungarian policy of the Czech Communist Party did not correspond to the new priorities & was condemned by Moscow as "bourgeois nationalism.". Adapted from the source document.
