León Trotski

Trotsky received asylum in Mexico in 1937, arranged by Diego Rivera with President Lázaro Cárdenas, and lived for a time in Frida’s Casa Azul in Coyoacán. He was assassinated in Mexico City in 1940 by Ramón Mercader, an agent of Stalin.

His house in Coyoacán is now a museum, close to the Frida Kahlo Museum.
