Solution

The correct option is C Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Fidel Castro became the leader of Cuba in 1959. He conducted several reforms, like providing free education and healthcare. He nationalised all businesses and created full employment as Cuba became a communist state. However, his regime was also accused of silencing political dissent and soon came to be known as dictatorial.
