Best Answer

From 1961 till 1989 (construction to fall), according to official figures at least 133 people were confirmed killed trying to cross the wall into West Berlin. However a prominent victims group claims more than 200 people were killed during that period. The Soviet government was known to have given explicit orders to shoot and kill attempted defectors, however as a response to this mortality rate the East Germany government has always denied having such a policy.

Which communist leader built the Berlin Wall?

Well...Nikita Khrushchev was General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, who ordered the East Germans to figure out some way to stop all the defections into West Berlin, or else. The "or else" were the five Soviet Ground Armies and the Soviet Air Army that were already stationed in the DDR with nothing really to do. The leader of East Germany at the time was Walter Ulbricht.
