USAID
Reiterates
Subversive
Plans
in
Latin
American
Countries
The
United
States
reiterated
its
willingness
to
finance
rebel
groups
seeking
to
destabilize
some
countries
of
the
Bolivarian
Alliance
for
the
Americas
(ALBA),
a
mechanism
of
political,
economic
and
social
integration
created
in
2004.
According
to
Mark
Feierstein,
Assistant
Administrator
for
Latin
America
and
the
Caribbean
of
the
U.S.
Agency
for
International
Development
(USAID),
Washington
gives
priority
to
support
opposition
forces
that
"are
fighting
for
human
rights
and
democracy
in
those
nations."
He
confirmed
that
the
White
House
has
a
close
relationship
and
provides
funds
for
opposition
groups
based
in
Cuba,
Venezuela,
Bolivia,
Ecuador
and
Nicaragua
(member
countries
of
ALBA),
without
specifying
figures,
several
media
reported.
Feierstein
statements
reveal
allegations
of
progressive
governments
and
institutions
in
Latin
America
and
the
Caribbean
on
the
subversive
nature
of
USAID
programs
in
the
region.
That
agency,
sometimes
presented
as
an
independent
civil
organization,
served
from
1961
in
line
with
a
strategy
to
counteract
the
U.S.
aggressive
image. |
