Pierre R, pourriez-vous lire ceci ?

Various estimates have been made to ascertain the number of political executions carried out on behalf of the Cuban Government in Cuba since the revolution. Latin American historian Thomas E Skidmore, assessed that there had been 550 executions in the first six months of 1959.[12] Among those executed were former Batista regime officials and members of the Bureau for the Repression of Communist Activities (Buró de Represión de Actividades Comunistas ; a unit of the secret police know by its Spanish acronym BRAC).[13][14] British historian Hugh Thomas, in his extensive study Cuba or the pursuit of freedom[15] alleged that "perhaps" 5,000 executions had taken place by 1970,[12] whilst The World Handbook of Political and Social Indicators assertained that there had been 2,113 political executions between the years of 1958-67.[12]

Cuban American emigrant sources place the number of executions in a far higher bracket. The Cuban American National Foundation alleges that since the revolution 12,000 political executions have taken place.[12] Dr. Armando Lago, of the Association for the Study of the Cuban Economy, a group of academics whose board of directors is almost entirely comprised of Cuban exiles,[16] claim that between 15,000 and 18,000 Cubans were executed for counterrevolutionary activities since the revolution. He also alleges that 250 Cubans disappeared during the period, 500 died in prison for lack of medical attention, 500 were killed in prison by guards and there were 150 extrajudicial assassinations of women. Lago calculated these numbers "using old news accounts, U.S. and Organization of American States records and family histories."[17] Lago’s study relies heavily on records of the US State Department and the Organization of American States.

The Black Book of Communism claims an estimate of 15,000-17,000 people who were executed.

Est-ce que votre sympathique dictateur vous a parlé de tout cela, ou vous avez simplement bu avec lui un punch avec un bon cigare ?
