“We have a lot at stake. This region matters. It has a lot to do with national security. We need to step up our game,” Gen. Richardson said referring to Latin America.
Argentina’s president is pretty shitty but he’s trapped in the inheritance of Peronism at least when it comes to international politics, specially considering how the region currently is, it may be a different scenario if the neighboring nations would be right wing neoliberals. So I doubt he would agree. Colombia currently has a president who was in a Marxist Leninist guerrilla in his youth, and while he’s no longer a Marxist I doubt he would go for such a shitty move.
You’ve surprised me in regards to Colombia. Perhaps I was misinformed, but I thought he was a Washington’s yes-man, with police death squads and USian businesses engorging themeselves on the local resources?

not the new one, Gustavo Petro (elected last year)
Aaah, my bad. Thank you
Yeah, it’s the first left wing president who seems to be in the correct path in Colombia for at least two decades.
