Stroessner, Paraguayan dictator, dies at 93 in Brazil
Former Paraguayan strongman Alfredo Stroessner, who ruled for 35 years after a 1954 coup and allied with U.S. backers, died in Brasilia at age 93 from pneumonia complications. He presided over autocratic rule, built roads and Itaipu dam, sheltered Nazi figures, and prompted fear through a secret police network before his 1989 overthrow. Paraguayans split on his legacy as stability and development competed with repression.
