The Brezhnev Doctrine, articulated by Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev in 1968, was a policy that asserted the Soviet Union's right to intervene in other socialist countries to maintain communist rule and prevent any deviation from socialism. It was a response to the Prague Spring in Czechoslovakia, emphasizing that the sovereignty of socialist states was limited by the need to protect the socialist system. This doctrine justified military interventions in Eastern Europe and reinforced the Soviet Union's control over its satellite states.
