To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed fair use rationale.

The copyright status of the footage of Ceauşescu's improvised trial is probably undertermined. This was filmed by amateurs, using purloined government equipment, in the middle of a revolution. If it is not clearly public domain (which it may be) the fair use argument is that these are historic events that should be depicted, and there are no images available for which the rights would be any clearer.
