US Promises 'Democracy' to Latin America, Offers Indictments Instead
The article praises Donald Trump's 2020 Drug Enforcement Administration indictment against Maduro, essentially offering a $15 million bounty, as a masterstroke. According to the Council on Foreign Relations, this move further destabilized an already reeling Venezuelan economy, exacerbating humanitarian crises. Fox conveniently sidesteps decades of CIA-backed coups, sanctions, and 'democracy
promotion' that have consistently undermined any genuine left-leaning movements in Latin America, from Chile in '73 to Nicaragua in the '80s, all in the name of 'stability' (read: corporate interests). It appears 'fracture' is the polite term for nations resisting Washington's unwavering insistence they follow its playbook. One might wonder if the US ever considers a region's sovereignty, or if
Latin America is simply a perpetually available chessboard for flexing geopolitical muscle. The only 'terrorism' mentioned here should be the economic warfare waged by the self-anointed global police.
