Pol Pot (ប៉ុល ពត; in lingua khmer), pseudonimo di Saloth Sâr (សាឡុត ស; Prek Sbauv, 19 maggio 1925 – Anlong Veng, 15 aprile 1998), è stato un rivoluzionario, politico e generale cambogiano, capo dei guerriglieri comunisti della Cambogia, i khmer rossi e ufficialmente primo ministro del Paese, che portò il nome di Kampuchea Democratica dal 1976 al 1979, quando la sua dittatura fu rovesciata dalla Repubblica Socialista del Vietnam durante la guerra cambogiano-vietnamita. Fu diretto ispiratore e responsabile della tortura e del massacro stimato di circa un milione e mezzo di persone, fra i quali migliaia di morti a causa del lavoro forzato, della malnutrizione e della scarsa assistenza medica. In totale si stima che circa un quarto della popolazione cambogiana perse la vita nel periodo tra il 1975 e il 1979, in quello che è noto come genocidio cambogiano. Leggi di più su Wikipedia
