Béla Miklós de Dálnok, Vitéz of Dálnok (Hungarian: [ˈmikloːʃ ˈbeːlɒ], 11 June 1890 – 21 November 1948) was a Hungarian military officer and politician who served as acting Prime Minister of Hungary, at first in opposition, and then officially, from 1944 to 1945.
Miklós used the title of dálnoki after Dálnok, Transylvania (today Dalnic, part of Romania), where his father worked as a teacher.
After rising from regimental to corps command, he became military director of the office of Admiral Miklós Horthy, regent of Hungary, in October 1942.
The Soviets re-armed prisoners of war and planned to form a Hungarian liberation army from the defectors.
But, with the exception of one regimental commander, no other Hungarian officer defected in response to Miklós's plea.
The High National Council, which functioned as a collective head of state, formed on 26 January 1945 under the presidency of Béla Zsedényi.
During his premiership, the arrest of war criminals and confiscations had begun, pro-German organizations and political parties were dissolved, and the new regime removed the "reactionary elements" from public institutions and the Hungarian army.
Miklós disbanded the Military Order of Maria Theresa with a decree in the summer of 1945.
Béla Miklós could not prevent the deportation of hundreds of thousands to the Soviet Union.
