Answer:
A. Saw communist regimes as liberators that stood against fascism and Nazis.
Explanation:
The Soviet Union had advocated "anti-fascist" statements and ideals. This had got much support from the Eastern European countries who were liberated by the Soviet Union from the Nazi Regime through 1942-1945. After the war, communist ideas on paper were also very progressive but the masses of East Europe failed to acknowledge the authoritarian side of the Soviet Union.
