Throughout 1978 , the opposition movement against the Shah regime in Iran grew stronger. In January, the Iranian newspaper Ettelā'āt published an article about Ruhollah Khomeini , which had been hushed up in the country until then. The exiled clergyman is branded as a “communist conspirator”. On January 9th, there were expressions of sympathy among the students in the city of Qom . On September 5th - at the beginning of the fasting month of Ramadan - there are rallies across the country, with the security forces being extremely tough and shooting indiscriminately into the crowd on September 8th, Black Friday, killing 68 people. Meanwhile, from his exile in Paris, Khomeini is attracting the attention of the Western media.

In Afghanistan , Iran's northeastern neighbor, President Mohammed Daoud Khan is overthrown by the military in April as part of the Saur Revolution . The new rulers, including Nur Muhammad Taraki, proclaim the Democratic Republic of Afghanistan on April 30th and put the country on a radical socialist course. The new regime was soon officially recognized by the Soviet Union and other Eastern bloc states , including Bulgaria , but soon also by the USA .

In March, the former two-time Italian prime minister and chairman of the Christian Democrats ( Democrazia Cristiana ), Aldo Moro, was kidnapped by the Red Brigades . 54 days later, on May 9th, his body was found in the trunk of a car parked in downtown Rome .

Pope Paul VI dies on August 6th . after 15 years of pontificate in Castel Gandolfo . The decision about his successor seems completely open. There is speculation that for the first time in 400 years a non-Italian, perhaps even a non-European, could become Pope. The curia diplomat Sergio Pignedoli , Cardinal Chamberlain Sebastiano Baggio and Curia Cardinal Pericle Felici are named as " papabile " . On August 26th, the choice fell on the previous Patriarch of Venice , Albino Cardinal Luciani, who as John Paul I to succeed Paul VI. is chosen. Rumors spread that his pontificate ends abruptly after just 33 days. From the following conclave on October 16, the Pole Karol Wojtyła, Archbishop of Cracow, emerged as Pope John Paul II . Just three years after the Helsinki Final Act was passed, his election is seen as a political signal to the communist world.
