| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Decades of foreign policy hypocrisy and economic double standards have resulted in a pervasive resistance to and suspicion of U.S. inveolvement in Latin America. The animosity manifests itself in ways that are direct threats to our national security: U.S. diplomats have been expelled, narcotics trafficking has reached record heights, and our military is being ousted from strategically important bases in the region. The United States is losing access and influence in Latin America and Caribbean nations like never before. Unless, we act quickly, we may be unable to regain our standing in this vital area. |
