Birgitta Dahl hyllade Röda Khmererna men hävdar i märkliga ursäkter att hon aldrig hyllat Pol Pot personligen och skyller på att hon inte trodde på alla grymheter till en början.

"When
Gunnar Bergstrom was a guest in Khmer Rouge Cambodia of Pol Pot in August 1978, the Swede enjoyed a rare meeting and dinner of oysters hosted by Pol Pot.
The meal followed a rare interview he and three politcal comrades from Sweden were given by the innaccesible and secretive Pol Pot who was then presiding over the death of more than a million and a half people that was actually escalating and under full rage at the time of that August 1978 feast
. he returned to Europe and labeled talk about genocide under Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge rule as a Western lie."

"
While in Cambodia I had come across a peculiar little travel report. It was published in 1979 and written by four Swedes who had been invited by Pol Pot to travel through the country in order to counter persistent rumours of terror and genocide. After two weeks and 1,000 kilometres the Swedes emerged from the then hermetically closed country, home to the most radical revolution in history. Their account was not uncritical, but they found no proof of mass murder or repression. On the contrary, they witnessed a poor country struggling to rebuild itself after a devastating war."
