In 1917, Russian masses were enthusiastic about Communists. Same goes for East Europeans in 1945. Today’s people. much more opulent than their grandfathers, tend to follow the opinion of the landlords of that time and start believing that Communism was forced on their grandfathers.
在1917年，俄罗斯民众对共产主义者充满热情。同样的事情发生在1945年的东欧。今天人们的生活比他们的祖父奢侈了太多，却倾向于认同当初地主们的观点，开始相信共产主义是被强加给他们的祖父的。

You are right about the Chinese. I know in depth the situation that country was drawning in. The social, political and financial situation was really bad by the time the communism came. Thus the communist party was seen as those who save them. Thinking from this perspective, Mao is - indeed - a saviour, in spite of the mistakes he did. And, thinking about the losses he had in his personal life, I think he was really motivated and determined to get his country and his people out of the mud.
对于中国来说，你说的是对的。我深入了解过这个国家当时正被拖入的处境。当共产主义到来时，它的社会、政治和财政状况真的很糟。因此，共产党被视为他们的拯救者。从这个角度思考，毛确实是救世主，尽管他也犯了错误。考虑到他在个人生活中的损失，我认为他确实是积极地下决心要把他的国家和人民救出泥潭。
However, it is not the case of my country, Romania. My country truly loved its king.
然而，在我的国家——罗马尼亚——情况并非如此。我的国家真地爱着它的国王。
Communism came to us with tanks on the streets. That's what I know from my grandpas and great-grandparents who were never landlords, on the contrary. I was born during communism and I could never forget the cry of my great-grandmother who often used to caress an old coin (it had our last king's face on it) and pray in the only language she ever spoke, Csango: “Oh, Kiraly (k)om! Kiraly (k)om!” It means: Oh, my (little)king!
共产主义是随着街上的坦克来到我们这里的。这是从我的祖父和曾祖父母告诉我的，他们从来都不是地主，而是恰恰相反。出生于共产主义时期的我，永远忘不了我的曾祖母每每抚摸着一枚旧硬币（在它之上有我们末代国王的肖像）时发出的哭声，以及用她唯一会说的语言——昌戈语所作的祈祷：“Oh, Kiraly (k)om! Kiraly (k)om!”它的意思是：啊，我（幼小）的国王啊！
Mind you, all my great-grandparents were simple peasants. And despite their ethnicities (Hungarian, Csango, Polish and Romanian), they loved our Romanian king. And each of them despised communism.
要提醒你们的是，我的曾祖父母都是普通的农民。并且，不论你将他们划入哪个种族（匈牙利人、昌戈人、波兰人或罗马尼亚人），他们都爱我们的罗马尼亚国王。同时，他们都鄙视共产主义。
The thing is.. the situation was different from country to country.
所以说……国家与国家的处境是不同的。
