A group working for this leader supposedly used the radu, a weapon meant to induce cancer. His government's Scinteia newspaper printed a satirical congratulatory telegram from Salvador Dali. The Jiu Valley miners' strike called for this leader's deposition. Under this man's rule, homeless and disabled children were kept at packed orphanages such as Cighid, as a result of the birth control ban enforced by Decree (*) 770. This man held back his country from participating in the Warsaw Pact invasion of Prague. This leader met his predecessor while imprisoned at Targu Jiu during World War II. This man and his wife, Elena, were shot by firing squad on Christmas Day 1989 after trying to flee the country via helicopter. For 10 points, name this successor of Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej and longtime Cold War-era President of Romania.
