Outrageous bare-faced lies or delusion, either way still pretty breathtaking."I don't want the next generations to misunderstand the history," Nuon Chea told the court.
"I don't want them to misunderstand that the Khmer Rouge are bad people, are criminals. Nothing is true about that."
The 85-year-old said he had devoted himself to serving his country, and said killings under the regime were carried out by rogue elements and the Vietnamese.
"These war crimes and crimes against humanity were not committed by the Cambodian people," he said. "It was the Vietnamese who killed Cambodians."
