Strong typing is not a synonym for static typing, it refers to a different aspect of type safety.
Static typing is, roughly, where variables and expressions have fixed types that can be determined ahead of execution. Strong typing means the language doesn't offer implicit type conversions. Python is dynamically typed, i.e. not statically typed, and strongly typed. (Ignoring its type annotations feature, of course.)
