Manea Mănescu
Manea Mănescu (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈmane̯a məˈnesku]; 9 August 1916 – 27 February 2009) was a Romanian communist politician who served as Prime Minister for five years (27 February 1974 – 29 March 1979) during Nicolae Ceaușescu's Communist regime. His father was a Communist Party veteran from Ploiești, who in the early 1920s supported the transformation of the Socialist Party into the Romanian Communist Party (PCR). Mănescu joined the PCR in 1938, while he was a student at the Academy of Economic Studies in Bucharest. In 1944, after the 23 August coup d'état, he worked together with Nicolae Ceaușescu, his future brother-in-law, in the Union of Communist Youth. Read more on Wikipedia
