Hungary played a pivotal role in ending the Cold War through a series of reformative actions in the late 1980s. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Miklós Németh, Hungary implemented significant political and economic reforms, moving towards a more open, multiparty system. The country famously opened its borders with Austria in May 1989, allowing thousands of East Germans to flee to the West, which symbolized the weakening of the Iron Curtain. These actions, along with the peaceful transition to democracy, contributed to the broader collapse of communist regimes in Eastern Europe.
