At the 4th World Festival of Youth and Students in 1953 , a number of young Romanians approached Western journalists , given a rare opportunity to make their opinions known to the outside world . They tended to be discouraged but still awaited American help , a hope boosted by the Korean War . One of them gave a written message to a US journalist : " Romanians put all their hopes in the American people . Everyone has understood that 1953 is the year of liberation . The Romanian people remains silent , with an open wound . But at the first chance we get , we will erupt . You have already seen the misery in which Romanian peasants live . They are ready to destroy communism at the first opportunity . Please transmit to the American people the greetings of Romanians subjugated by the red beasts "
