Description The concentrating cabinet of the prime minister Károly Huszár which emerged under the mediation of British diplomat Sir George Russel Clark was based on broader political platform and represented also a trustful political partner of the Entente. Nevertheless, the Huszár's cabinet continued the policy of the Friedrich's administration which was not recognized by Entente. Even if the Huszár's cabinet was "concentrating" what was a precondition of its recognition by Entente and of the Hungary's invitation to the Paris Peace Conference it did not contribute to the rapprochement of sharply divided Hungarian society and to elimination of non-democratic elements from the coming counter-revolutionary regime in the country. Huszár's cabinet contributed to conservation of counter-revolutionary political mood in the country preferring only one part of political system at the expense of political trends which profaned themselves in the recent revolutionary turns not only in the "red revolution" in the spring of 1919 but also during so called "chryzantemum revolution" in the fall of 1918 supported the gradual establishment of the semi-authoritarian regime in the interwar period known as "horthyist" Hungary. Unfortunately the progress of nondemocratic forces in Hungary was also enabled by tacitus consensus of the Entente toward their deformed manifestations.
