If you can tell us why it's so important that the object be destroyed
at that given time, even while a reference to it exists, maybe we can
give you better suggestions.
Thanks for your answer! In my case the types A and B (in my example
above)
are a dialog and a dialog widget. At a special time I have to close
and
destroy all dialogs but this does not happen because the widget keeps
the dialog alive. I have the reference to the dialog
but after I closed the dialogs I also would like to destroy them
because they have to free some special ressources.
Objects within a reference cycle will eventually get cleaned up, just not
right away and not in a predictable order.
If you need immediate cleanup, you should destroy the reference cycle
yourself, e.g. by removing the widgets from the dialog when closing it.

The PyWidget type does not own the widget, it just points to it. I
have an idea, would this fix the problem?
I destroy the internal dictionary of the dialog which points to other
PyObjects? Then I would cut the dependency.
Sure, that should work.
