Socialism was not discredited, most people wanted to preserve it. It was decided in Moscow to sacrifice Central Europe to imperialism for some disarmament treaties and access to markets.
I don’t want to smear Klaus, I think he did more good than bad for our country. He cannot be always taken literally.
Also I don’t believe socialism could continue in the geopolitical situation back then, it would mean drastic international insulation and probably foreign intervention sooner or later. What they did was quite reasonable. Also dividing the country was reasonable, prevented possible future tensions that happened in Yugoslavia.
What a wonderful achievement is to have such political wisdom, in such strange times, for everyone to see! Congratulations!
