If I was Cuban probably Castro. I don't think Batista was going be a Park Chung Hee.

Castro.  At the time of the Cuban Revolution, very enthusiastically.

Castro, with widely varying levels of enthusiasm depending on the time period.

I can understand the enthusiasm in 1959 without hindsight.

Cuban history, like that of most nations, is marked by poor leadership.

Castro, I guess, though needless to say that's not an endorsement.

With hindsight from the early '60s, obviously Batista, but it may have been the reverse opinion in the '50s, before Castro had clearly associated with the wrong side.

Very reluctantly Castro in the 50s, but ultimately Batista, as he didn't try to start a nuclear exchange.
