He has been compared to Pol Pot due to his violent crimes. He was aligned with Russia (led by Leonid Brezhnev), Cuba (led by Fidel Castro), and North Korea (led by Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong’s old friend Kim Il Sung. Francisco Nguema also compared himself to the German Nazi Dictator of Germany, Adolf Hitler and said that “Hitler was going to liberate Africa from Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal but got confused and killed millions of Jews in the Holocaust” but Nguema was a insane Dictator of Equatorial Guinea and called himself a Marxist-Hitlerist which makes himself a Nazbol.
